	The following steps vary according to the actions requested in the XML file. Some steps may not appear at all; some steps may appear multiple times. For this reason, the step numbers have been omitted in this table.
	Configuring Vdisk <vdiskname> on Controller <controller ip>.	This step appears once for each Vdisk. This step appears only if a Vdisk is being configured. Instead of <vdiskname> and <controller ip>, the Vdisk Name and Controller IP address from the XML file appear in the respective fields.
	Configuring Global Spares <disk list> on Controller <controller ip>.	This step appears only once. The one step is used for any Global Spare(s) being requested. This step appears only if a Global Spare is being configured. Instead of <disk list> and <controller ip>, the disk list of the Global Spare(s) and the Controller IP address from the XML file appear in the respective fields.
	Configuring <size> MB Host Volume for Host <host ip>.	This step appears once for each host volume. This step appears only if a host volume is being configured. Instead of <size> and <host ip>, the size (in megabytes) of the Host Volume and the Host IP address from the XML file appear in the respective fields.
	These steps appear for all Configure Storage background tasks that complete successfully.
	Storage Configuration Completed.	The storage configuration has completed.
