I cannot see my persistent

images.

Persistent images reside in the ActiveArchive directory,

which is a hidden folder.

Configure your system to view

hidden files and folders.

I cannot take persistent

images of my file system.

The cache file is still being created.

Wait until the cache file is

created, and then attempt to

take the persistent image

again. To confirm that the

persistent image cache file has

been created, check the

Status Area of the

ActiveArchive section of the

PowerVault NAS Manager.

I cannot take persistent

images of my file system.

The cache file is full.

Delete one or more persistent

images until sufficient space is

free in the cache file to create

the additional persistent

images.

I cannot take a persistent

image of my C: or D: drive.

A persistent image cannot be taken of the C: or D: drive. Taking a persistent image of

the C: or D: drive is not

supported.

I notice that the date and

time for the ActiveArchive

directory changes every

time I reboot my NAS

appliance.

The ActiveArchive directory date and time are reset at

each reboot. The new dates and times do not change the

dates and times of your persistent images.

Take no action. This is the

normal functionality of Dell

ActiveArchive.

I have deleted a persistent

image, but when the

Persistent Images page

redisplays I can still see the

persistent image. If I try to

delete it again, I get a

blank page.

In some environments, the Persistent Images page in

the PowerVault NAS Manager refreshes too quickly.

Wait a few seconds and refresh

the page. You should see that

the persistent image you

deleted is no longer listed.

Two of the IDE hard drives show as SCSI

drives in the Dell OpenManage Array

Manager window.

Your NAS appliance only supports IDE hard

drives. The system is reporting the hard

drive type incorrectly.

Take no action. This is a design

issue that will be addressed in a

later release.
