The Microsoft Multipath I/O (MPIO) test was removed from the Hardware-based RAID (Storage Array) test category in Windows Logo Kit (WLK) 1.5. This test had many issues which resulted in support calls, errata, and in some cases missed test coverage. A new version of this test is under development and will be released in a future version of the WLK. WLK 1.5 has no specific MPIO testing for RAID systems. The current process for testing hardware-based RAID systems that support MPIO is to check the MPIO box in the submission wizard and run all the tests that are exposed in the Driver Test Manager (DTM). RAID systems will get the same test report they have received in the past for MPIO submissions as long as the MPIO box is checked.
