Hello Zoltan,
recovering deduped pools after a desaster, even a partial one, has some
drawbacks.
Deduplication information is bound to the storagepool, not the

Hi everybody,
Am I the only one who's getting confused about the patch versions released by
IBM recently? I noticed a 8.1.10.200 SP server and OC release last Friday, but
8.1.11.0 is already out for weeks...
Kind regards,
