Microsoft Windows 11

I'm curious if there is any news regarding HPSBHF03844, when an updated VROC driver will be released?

 

I'm also wondering if the team is aware of an issue I've noticed on windows 11 that might get patched with the update.

 

I have a PCIex16 bifurcation to 4x4 with a 4 port NVME adapter.  This has a VROC raid volume configured on it.  It always worked find until I upgraded to windows 11.  Whenever I reboot the system, the drive is not available, doesn't even show up in device manager.  But if I shut the system down and power up it shows up correctly.

 

Thank you.

EDITED FOR CLARITY:

At least for the Z440s and Z640s I have access to for a 4-port Z Turbo Drive Quad Pro the bifurcation setting for whatever PCIe3 x16 slot it is in should be set to x4x4x4x4. You don't say the adapter. You don't provide the HP workstation (it must be later than the Zx40 family which can't do VROC).

 

Also, in Control Panel/ Power Options app/ under Choose what the power buttons do/ click on Change settings that are currently unavailable and untic Turn on fast startup and hibernate and tic Sleep and Lock. Fast startup is a POS, truly, and MS has made it default on... hopefully they change that.

It's a Z4 G4 with an Asus adapter.  As I mentioned, it worked when I was running Win10 on the same hardware, so all the UEFI settings are good.

Fast startup does seem to cause a lot of problems from other issues I've come across.  I vaguely remember disabling it trying to troubleshoot another issue but turning it back when it didn't help.  I don't remember it solving this issue, I doubt I was paying attention.  I'll try this out and report back. Thanks.

Turns out I had this recommendation already in place.  So that is not the issue.  I'm trying to research a way to troubleshoot this issue further since the logs are not reveling much.
