- possible workarounds to these limitations

EBSD Driver for Linux
If Driver Loses Contact with Manager or Store, Driver Host Cannot Stop EBSD Device (3067)
When communication to the manager or store is lost, driver host cannot unmount EBSD volume in order
to stop the device. If this condition occurs, the reboot or shutdown process cannot complete.
Workaround
In this situation, there is a network communication issue with the store. Wait until the connection is reestablished,
or fix the network problem. Then, when the connection between the host and the store is reestablished,
the unmount will continue and the device can be stopped and the reboot or shutdown
process will complete.
Cannot Mount Snapshots Of Volumes With Ext3 or XFS File Systems Mounted On Them (588)
Workaround for XFS
1. xfs_freeze -f /mnt/point
2. <take snapshot>
3. xfs_freeze -u /mnt/point
4. mount /dev/aebs/diskX /mnt/ops/dbbackup -onouuid,ro
Note: The "-o nouuid" is important. "Xfs_freeze" guarantees that XFS is synchronized with its journal. This
is the safe, guaranteed way to take the snapshot.
Workaround for Ext3
1. Unmount the filesystem.
2. Take snapshot.
3. Remount the file system.
4. Mount the snapshot.
