the extension .1 and the original (that is, the .LOG file) is
deleted and recreated. For other log files, a .1 file is created
when the .LOG file reaches a size of 1 Mbyte. If a .1 file already
exists, the existing .1 file is destroyed.
- The blink LED feature is supported for management-processor-enabled
enclosures only.
- In the Event viewer, Adaptec Storage Manager reports both the
initial build task for a pool and a subsequent Verify/Fix
as a "Build/Verify" task.
- Task priority is not retained after rebooting. If you change
a priority to LOW or MEDIUM, and reboot, the controller resets
the priority to the default (HIGH).
- When displaying information about a physical device, the device,
vendor and model information may be displayed incorrectly.
- After using a hot spare to successfully rebuild a redundant
pool, information about the hot spare drive may not display
as expected. Adaptec Storage Manager may continue to display
it as a global hot spare.

4. Operating System-Specific Issues and Notes
4.1 All
- Adaptec Storage Manager will not start on a system that uses
only 16 colors. Adaptec Storage Manager supports a minimum of 256
colors. See section 4.2 for a special note about Windows color
requirements.
- If the Adaptec Storage Manager GUI does not repaint correctly,
select the View->Refresh menu item to repaint the screen.
4.2 Windows - All
- The Java Virtual Machine has a problem with the 256-color
palette. (The Adaptec Storage Manager display may be distorted
or hard to read.) Set the Display Properties Settings to a
color mode with greater than 256 colors.
- When you shut down Windows, you might see the message
"unexpected shutdown". Windows displays this message if the
Adaptec Storage Manager Agent fails to exit within 3 seconds.
It has no affect on file I/O or other system operations and can
be ignored.
4.3 Windows for EM64T and AMD-64
- RAID controllers do not produce an audible alarm on the following
64-bit Windows operating systems:
o Windows XP Professional x64 Edition
o Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition (all versions)
