Losing LAN conn

ection to the HAFM appliance when logged in to HAFM

If the LAN conne

ction to the HAFM appliance is lost while you are logged in to HAFM,

the application may stop.

Workaround

The LAN connection must be restored. Stopping HAFM has no impact on the Fibre

Channel operations of any edge switch or director. Mon itoring switch operations,

loggingevents,andimplementingconﬁguration changes are interrupted only while

the LAN is not connected.

Effect of no L

AN connection to HAFM appliance during boot up

If the HAFM ap

pliance has no LAN connection while booting up, but it is connected

after booti

ng up, the remote client sessions to the HAFM appliance are not allowed.

Also, the I P address that is displayed when you select SAN > Ser ver Properties is

possibly incorrect.

Workaround

This is corrected by restoring the LA N connection and rebooting the appliance.

Rebooting the appliance has no impact on the Fibre Channel operations of any switch

or director. O nly monitoring switch o perations, logging events, and implementing

conﬁguration changes are interrupted.

Setting HAFM appliance L A N to use DHCP is activa ted to wrong LAN

When setting the IP conﬁguration for the HAFM appliance using the LCD panel,

setting DHCP conﬁguration for LAN 1 causes LAN 2, not LAN 1, to be conﬁgured for

DHCP. Similarly, setting DHCP conﬁguration for LAN 2 causes LAN 1, not LAN 2, to

be conﬁgured for DHCP.

Workaround

If you wish to conﬁ gure LAN 1 for DHCP, select LAN 2 instead of LAN 1 at the start of

the conﬁguration procedure. If you wish to conﬁgure LAN 2 for DHCP, select LAN 1

instead of LAN 2 at the start of the conﬁguration procedure.

Event notiﬁcation by e-mail or call home can be missing information under

certain conditions

Thou

be m

issing information normally contained in these messages. This occurs if a switch

tects an event that requires a notiﬁcation to be issued, but HAFM has not completed

discovery of the switch. This discovery of a switch is usually completed within a few

seconds, so it is unlikely, though not impossible, that an event occurs during this short
