Error description
Storage Disk Status is not properly displayed on Cognos "capacity and relationships" reports. Cognos is using the propagated status field to calculate the storage disk status and starting with Spectrum Control 5.2.12 the background tasks and queries for updating the propagated status are running for only the top level entities. The definition of Cognos storage disk status should be changed to use the consolidation and operational status instead of propagated status.
