Affected Hardware and Software:
Oracle 6.4 TB NVMe SSD v2 storage drives with VDV1RL04 firmware on supported X7-2L series servers. See Supported Servers and Operating Systems.
Workaround: Do not use nvme delete-ns command on X7-2L servers with system firmware release 3.0.1 or earlier. Use nvmeadm commands to delete a namespace.
Fix: Update SPARC servers to system firmware release 9.9.3 or later.
