Progress Bar Showing the Modify Mode Timeout

The progress bar shows the remaining time period in which the Modify mode
is available. The remaining time period for the Modify mode is also

numerically displayed on the progress bar. The default of the Modify mode
timeout period is 30 minutes. You can click the Reset button on the right of
the progress bar to extend the Modify mode time period. For example, if the

Modify mode timeout period is set as 30 minutes (default), the Modify mode
time period is extended for 30 minutes, as you click the Reset button.

If you do not access the SVP while in Modify mode, the progress bar

decreases. When you reach the specified Modify mode timeout period,
Modify mode is released.

Note: If Modify mode is released due to time out, the settings made but not

yet applied to the storage system will be canceled on some windows.
Therefore, make sure that you have enough time remaining in Modify mode
to complete your work by clicking Reset while you are using the following
