The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 1906688.

There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,

and could in certain setups cause problems with:

1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)

2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs

   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^end of  KB 1002281

KB 1011387 I don't think applies because LUN not reported as snapshot!

"detected to be a snapshot" returns 0 Entries

Search complete, found 'SCSI IO to non-existent partition' 0 time(s). (0 file(s)).
