From 3a63de802d61b621437e1ed447e61832a214b100 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Helen Walsh Date: Tue, 18 Dec 2018 16:34:08 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] VMAX driver doc - notification of fix on AFA OS upgrade issue Workload support was dropped in PowerMax OS 5978. A fix has been merged to Rocky to support a PowerMax OS 5878 upgrade on a VMAX All Flash, so all functionality on existing OpenStack Instances and Volumes created from VMAX All Flash storage, will work as before. This is not an issue in the (not yet released) Stein as the fix is in already in place, so does not need to be documented.
