HP B-series Network Advisor Enterprise, Professional Plus, and Professional 12.1.5 Release Notes

Reset Ports operation in Logical switches dialog
NOTE:
1. Reset ports to default operation is applicable only when the ports are moved from one Logical
Switch to another Logical Switch through the Right Arrow button i.e., from (Chassis ports
Tree/Tree Table) LHS to (Logical Switches Device Tree) RHS device tree.
It is not applicable when:
• Ports from a Logical switch are moved to default Logical Switch through Left Arrow button,
that is, from (Logical Switches Device Tree) RHS to (Chassis ports Tree/Tree Table) LHS.
• When a Logical switch is deleted - its ports will not be reset to default before moving to
Default Logical switch before its deletion.
Ports which are moved to the default logical switch can be reset to default, if they are moved
from (Chassis ports Tree/Tree Table) LHS to (Logical Switches Device Tree) RHS device tree.
2. Reset ports to default operation does not clear FCIP configurations in the following scenarios:
• In the HP 400 Multi-protocol Router switch and the HP Multi-protocol Router Blade, VE
ports cannot be reset to default unless their corresponding GE ports are cleared of their
FCIP configurations.
• In the HP 1606 SAN Extension switch and HP DC SAN Director Multiprotocol Extension
Blade, GE ports cannot be reset to default unless their corresponding VE ports are cleared
of their FCIP configurations.

Configuring SSL
When configuring Network Advisor in SSL enable mode in the application configuration wizard,
ensure that both HTTP and HTTPS ports are free and available for Network Advisor. Currently the
application checks only if the HTTPS configured port is available and not the HTTP port.
Increase in number of client connections
Starting with Network Advisor 12.0.0, the number of supported client connections has increased
to 25. See the installation guide for the details about this feature. In addition to those details, a
change to the database memory setting is required.
The PostgreSQL’s parameter shared_buffers memory allocation should be increased to 1024
MB. This can be done by editing the <installation_directory>\data\databases\
postgresql.conf file, changing the shared_buffers parameter and then restarting the
server. To modify the shared buffers parameter, change the following line:
