[Update]
Dies ist der Fehler, der in Update 2 korrigiert wurde:
Critical Fixes
Problem: A disk pool with all healthy physical disks could be marked offline in scenarios where both virtual disk reclamation and migration is occurring.
Cause: A timing issue existed, resulting in two different SAUs (Storage Allocation Unit) illegally pointing to the same disk offset.
Resolution: Update the disk pool SAU allocation information before allowing a migration to complete.
