HP Virtual Connect 3.75 Release Notes

Issues and workarounds 8
If a BL870c i2 server is present in bays 3 and 4 of a C3000 enclosure, then the Hardware Overview page
in VC Manager does not display the correct graphical picture of the server. However, VC Manager does
manage the server properly, it is only the graphical image that is not correct.
Issue
The Virtual Connect Manager CLI interface does not allow creation of the local user account with a password
containing the ‘|’ (pipe) special character.
Workaround
Use the VCM GUI to create a local user account with a password containing the ‘|’ (pipe) special
character.
Issue
VC occasionally reports a loss of communication with a remote enclosure. VC automatically recovers the
communication within seconds.
Issue
The search functionality in the left navigation tree of the GUI is incomplete. The help text states that you can
search for Network Access Groups, Modules, Interconnect Bays, and Device Bay items. These options are
not implemented in this release. To access a specific item, use the corresponding link in the left navigation
tree, and then locate the item on the right side of the screen.
Issue
While configuring a Shared Uplink Set in failover mode using the GUI, the GUI incorrectly allows uplink ports
that are designated as Primary ports to be deleted, which can render the Shared Uplink Set without any
Primary uplink ports.
Workaround
When using the GUI to configure a Shared Uplink Set, do not attempt to remove the uplink port
designated as Primary.
Issue
In a VC domain with a VC profile assigned to a BL2x220 server blade, when the I/O module connected to
the dual-technology port is replaced with a module using the other technology, the OA detects that the
identity of the server changed, but VC does not detect the change. As a result, the OA will not power on the
server until VC updates the server configuration.
Workaround
To resolve the problem, unassign and reassign the profiles to the two server bays (for example, Bays 1a
and 1b), hot-plug the server, or simulate a hot-plug of the server using the OA reset server
command. The problem can also be resolved if VC restarts, fails over, reboots, receives a firmware
update, or re-evaluates the server after an OA failover.
Issue
Clicking Backup Configuration on the Domain Settings (Backup/Restore) screen and then navigating away
from that screen does not save the configuration file.
Workaround
During the backup operation, do not refresh the screen or navigate to another screen.
