189/190/191/192/193/194/195/196/197/201
Windows Device Manager may not display the correct controller name in an environment using N8103-
189/190/191/192/193/194/195/196/197/201. There is no problem affecting operations. Continue to use it
as is.
Note
Drive roaming lets you move disk drives and arrays while maintaining data
availability. You can move one or more disk drives in a configured logical drive to a
different bay position as long as the new bay position is accessible by the same
controller. In addition, you can move a complete array from one controller to
another, even if controllers are in different servers. The logical drive status must be
good before you move physical drives to a new bay position.
Drive roaming is an offline feature. There is no method for removing an array while
the server is online and then moving it to a new physical location.
