UBR Policing and UNI traffic class. As a result, OMS-V was unable to obtain or assign the correct information on the switch. Since Release 2.2.3, the MIB OID has been updated to be consistent on both VSS and OMS-V. However, all previous switches still use the old MIB OID, the UNI traffic class can not be set via the OMS-V Release 2.2.3 GUI on any version of VSS previous to VSS Release 2.2.3.

Hewlett Packard Platform Considerations Hewlett Packard discontinued support for the HP-UX 9.6 operating system as of 2Q97.
The data captured in the VSM/OMS-V database cannot be carried forward. Therefore, it will take a period of time to rediscover the network. If the current software on the workstation is a VSM release, the installation must be cleaned out by following the procedure for “Removing VSM software”...
- install HP-OV 5.01 and appropriate patches. - install OMS-V 2.3 MR1 following the instructions in NTP 241-9501-200, Vector Software Installation and Commissioning. 3) Connect and start HP-OV 5.01 in network - OMS-V 2.3 MR1 manages VSS 1.1.x/2.0.x/2.2.x/2.3 MR1 switches. VSS2.3 MR1 switches will not be managed by earlier versions of VSM/OMS-V.
