Release Notes

The EM has the following known limitations:

  1. Does not support config strings on exported LUNs. This means the EM cannot be used by Windows or Mac initiators, or the VS.
  2. Shelf address cannot be changed once LUNs are defined.

These issues are under review for resolution in future releases.
