• The password confirmation field in the user account (My Account) settings
always says claims entered passwords do not match. Workaround: Save an
empty password, then enter the new password and resave. (13504)
• After rebooting the web server host, you may have to manually restart the
Tomcat/Synergy Service manager that appears in the system tray. To get the
manager back into the system tray, navigate to the Menu item under OMNM
> Synergy Manager. This puts the manager back into the system tray if you
want to actively monitor the service. (14386)
• Saving a view and marking it as default prevents reverting to the original
default view without deleting the saved default view. (15463)
• Intermittent issues and error messages appear related to Window 2008 plat-
form. (17143)
• In some circumstances the File Server test produces a narrow window.
Workaround: Right-click the listed server in the File Servers portlet and select
Test. (18870)
• If a problem occurs during firmware deployment, the error message displayed
may not specify the cause. Failed connectivity may produce a message like
"Error pattern '.*(is required ' matched 'already full'" Workaround: For such
messages, the content of the error message, visible at the bottom of the audit
screen, may provide more information. Click the message in the top of the
audit screen to read its contents in the bottom of the screen. (18636)
• Backing up W-Series iAP devices is not supported (18560)
• You may experience difficulties when using 3CServer as your FTP server.
Workaround: Use 3CDaemon (08525)
• OpenManage Network Manager keeps a record in the My Alerts/Action His-
tory when you change Event Definitions. Those entries' Details field is blank
in the My Alerts/Action History.(18942)
• OMNM supports multiple IP addresses per resource. During event processing,
filters that include IP address criteria may behave incorrectly when OMNM
evaluates the filter. Workaround: Best practice is using resource name(s)
instead of IP addresses. (12532)
• Events with no corresponding definition appear as alarms of indeterminate
severity. The only way to change behavior of an unknown event in this ver-
sion would be to locate the missing MIB and load it into the system. This cre-
ates the missing event definition(s) needed to specify explicit behaviors.
• Northbound action can now send as proxy. With this option set, there are no
issues with XP's security patch, Vista or Server 2008. The application attempts
to spoof sourceIP on packet only when the proxy option is not selected.

• Trap listener, Inform listener and all outbound SNMP requests must bind to a
specific interface in a multi-homed environment. This interface is considered
appropriate to use for all network-facing SNMP activity. By default, this is
localhost, interpreted as the application's local IP value (the NIC selected at
installation time). The following text in installed.properties provides a spe-
