Abstract
IBM has identified a potential data loss issue in Storwize V7000 Unified 1.3.0.x and 1.3.1.x releases. This issue may manifest as either a data loss issue from a transient read error, returning zeros rather than the expected data, or as incorrect data returned following a write that is applied to the wrong file.
Content
In internal testing on an unsupported configuration, IBM has identified a potential data integrity issue in Storwize V7000 Unified version 1.3.0.x and 1.3.1.x releases. This issue has not, to IBM's knowledge, been experienced in the field. The issue occurs only when writing via NFS to Storwize V7000 Unified. This issue may manifest as either a data loss issue from a transient read error, returning zeros rather than the expected data, or as incorrect data returned following a write that is applied to the wrong file.
Even though this issue was detected on an unsupported configuration, IBM can not rule out the possibility that this problem may impact any customer writing via NFS to Storwize V7000 Unified at the stated level. Empirical evidence suggests that the likelihood of customers encountering this issue is quite limited. To avoid this issue customers should upgrade to the 1.3.2 GA release.
