Enhancements

• Get-NaVirtualDiskAlignment and Repair-NaVirtualDiskAlignment can now detect and repair alignment issues for both VHD and VHDX format disks.
• Set-NaVirtualDiskSize now supports growing and shrinking VHDX format virtual disks.
• The NDMP copy cmdlets (Start-NaNdmpCopy and Invoke-NaNdmpCopy) have been improved. The credentials cache will look up credentials based on the IP addresses and hostnames associated with the IP addresses. The DstController parameter is no longer a required parameter. If DstController is omitted, the SrcController is used as the destination.

• Show-NaHelp now displays help for aliased cmdlets in the clustered ONTAP online help documentation.

Fixes

• Timestamp output sometimes not returned correctly for Get-NcPerfData.
• Get-NaSnapmirrorConnection address pairs were missing for Data ONTAP 8.2.
• Controller connection serialized then deserialized with ConvertTo-SerializedString and ConvertFrom-SerializedString would not initialize ONTAPI version properly.
• Several of the "Related Links" in the online help documentation were broken.
• SCSI unmap performance increase.
• NDMP copy cmdlets (Invoke-NaNdmpCopy and Start-NaNdmpCopy) could hang if the source path does not exist.
• Divide-by-zero error could occur in Get-NcEfficiency.
