UPDATE (Sunday 16th Jan 2022) - The storage vendor has been working throughout the night\early morning and are now reporting that the platform is not now reporting errors, However, another upgrade was still in the process of being run and then the platform was to be monitored to ensure it was in a healthy state.

UPDATE (Saturday 15th Jan 2022) - The storage vendor was able to perform the firmware upgrade late last night\early hours of this morning and system performance has stabilised.
