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!

MicrosoftHi there, in your previous repro for "NOT OK - diskpart > format fs=xxxx quick (GPT initialization, volume / partition creation works)", did you did you select the primary partition and activate it before running the format command? Is so, can you record a TTT trace (instruction here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/debugger/time-travel-debugging-record) for executing the failing "format fs=xxx quick" command?
- 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? - Please mind that the Format FS via diskpart is not optimal as by design raw volumes have no drive letter assigned. So it's not a usual procedure, but should be OK for demoing.
