Threshold Configuration Flexibility
Cisco Fabric Manager Server allows two performance thresholds to be configured for throughput values
for connections to end devices and inter-switch links (ISLs). Prior to Cisco Fabric Manager release
3.2(1) the user interface forced users to select either a fixed percentage or auto-baseline setting for both.
Now end-users can set one threshold for a link based on a fixed percentage and the other using the
auto-baseline setting.

If you have a DMM configuration, the DMM job may transition to a Reset state during a supervisor
switchover. In that case, the administrator should recover from the Reset state by following the
instructions in the Cisco MDS 9000 Data Mobility Manager Configuration Guide.
A storage type job in DMM cannot be restored from a saved ASCII configuration. When a storage
job is created in DMM, the SSM generates Virtual Initiators (VIs) for each storage type job. Each
request to generate VIs can potentially return different VI pWWNs. As a result, if an ASCII
configuration for a storage type job is reapplied, there is a possibility the the VIs generated by the
SSM are different. In that case, the session configurations in the saved configuration are no longer
valid.
Following a fcdomain restart disruptive command, the DMM process cleans up all configurations
and transitions the DMM job in the affected VSAN to the Reset state. During the cleanup, some
virtual devices are not deleted correctly, which results in an incomplete cleanup. As a result, when
