Problem with vault drives VNX 5100
Hello team , we have a problem with VNX 5100. On our array we have HDU error in slot 0-0-1 , support says - replace drive with p.n.Original P/N 005050344 but isn't available in our country, and sent us alternative P/N 005051955, but this drive don't recognized in array, i thinked that this HDD is DOA. After this, i insert old (failure drive) and system worked withoutproblem, few days, but then again there was an error, i order new drive, and support again sent me alternative drive 005051955, and again this drive not recognized.
P.S .Support says this "Drive replaced with part number-005051955 and It is not recognized in storage because drive 0_0_1 is a vault drive and have different part number than other drives."
But EMC logistic talk that this drive 100 % compatible.
Do you have some some idea ?

I've checked the replacement part number against the original part number and they both are the same usage 600GB SAS.
What is the Flare version running on your 5100?
What country?
You can check the part number is the below article:
