#: For the information about the hardware installed in the storage system, only additional information is obtained from the storage system cache.

It usually takes from one to five minutes (but can take as long as an hour) before the latest information is applied to the cache. To obtain the latest information, run the API request that updates the cache of storage system configuration information to refresh the cache data, and then run the API request for getting information.
