Known Issues
Workaround: These zones are removed by creating and enabling a user defined
zoning configuration, or by setting this option to 1. This option must be set to 1
before merging into a fabric with a switch running Fabric OS v4.0.2b.
•
Occasionally, after zoning creation activities, one of the F_Ports may move to
status In_Sync. If the portdisable / portenable command is executed, the
F_Port will log in as an L_Port. This is caused by memory buffers not being
released, causing a PLOGI trap.
•
If two zoning configuration update commands (such as cfgenable,
cfgdisable, or cfgsave) are issued simultaneously, zoning inconsistencies
across the fabric may occur. This can happen when one of these commands is run
from two different switches at same time, or twice from a single switch without
waiting for the first command to propagate throughout the fabric.
To avoid this, wait a few minutes between running commands to allow the zone
information to propagate throughout the fabric correctly.
To recover if these inconsistencies occur, log into the switch with the incorrect
zone configuration and clear the switch using the following commands:
— switchdisable
— cfgclear, cfgdisable
— switchenable
This series of commands will clear the incorrect zone configuration from the
switch, and when the switch is enabled, the correct zone configuration will
propagate to the switch from the fabric.
Web Tools
The following summarizes Web Tools limitations.
•
On a Solaris OS v8.0 system, a telnet session cannot be launched using the Telnet
button in Web Tools if the path of the "xterm" application is not included in the
PATH environment variable.
Workaround: This path varies from machine to machine, so contact your system
administrator to find out the correct path of the "xterm" application and include
this variable in the default environment setup file.
•
When viewing Web Tools Fabric View, the browser may stop responding.
Workaround: Restart the browser.
