  • Update the hardware timeout for the Spaces port

    For performance optimization and reliability, update the hardware timeout configuration for the Spaces port.

    The following PowerShell command updates the configuration in the Windows registry and induces a restart of the node at the end of the registry update. Perform this update on all Storage Spaces Direct nodes immediately after initial deployment. Update one node at a time and wait until each node rejoins the cluster.

    Set-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\spaceport\Parameters -Name HwTimeout -Value 0x00002710 -Verbose

    Restart-Computer -Force
