[ISSUE] b20251 b20257 b20262 b20270 b20282 b20287 Formatting a volume fails

 

affected builds (tested): b20251,b20257,b20262,b20270,b20282

remotely via Server Manager from b20201

 

initializing as GPT / reset / clean works fine.

creating partition works fine

formatting volume fails

 

repro steps:

reset disk

new volume

fs refs or ntfs, default settings

format will fail (see diskpart and Server Manager)

if server manager is used, update cache will run eternally until wizard is closed

 

 

 

  • Karl-WE  Hi, thanks for reporting this issue! To help with the diagnosis, can you please also try using Disk Management? I'd like to see if this issue persists across Diskpart, Server Manager, AND Disk Management. 

  • Hi there is there any news from the team? I really hope we can find the root cause and fix so I do not have to "reserve" a drive for testing. Thank you very much in advance!

        Thanks for your response. Sure I can try this, I am not familiar with this process. Shall I repeat with Server Manager?
        Is there a possibility for a remote session if I cannot manage it?
