Symptoms

A timing issue occurs when a user creates multiple partitions and adds multiple slots to those partitions. When a user creates and configures multiple pieces of hardware in a short amount of time, the later partitions/blades don’t always get the correct values.

Impact

Some partitions/blades might have the wrong version after upgrading.

Conditions

1. Create multiple partitions and assign multiple separate slots to each partition, initially disabled. 2. Wait for all the blades to reboot completely. 3. Set the blade's software version to a different version. 4. Enable all the partitions from step 1 in a single commit. 5. Wait for the blades to reboot and for the partitions to start.

Workaround

Reboot each blade with the wrong version manually after the partition is enabled.

Fix Information

The timing issue has been resolved.
