Connecting to the database
In Linux 64-bit machines, connecting to the database through Open office using ODBC does not
work. As a solution, connect from the Windows ODBC Client to the 64-bit Linux machine where
Network Advisor is running to view the Database tables.
Remote host connection to ODBC
After migration to Network advisor 12.0.x, remote host connections to an ODBC database are
no longer supported. If you want to connect from the remote host, refer to the "Configuring remote
client access to the database" section of the Installation and Migration Guide.
Linux Server Installation Issues
• During installation on a Linux server, if the user sets the password for the Network Advisor
database starting with a ‘$’, installation of the application fails.
• When attempting to install Network Advisor on a Linux Server, if the message Insert New
Media is displayed, the ulimit –n 2000 command must be executed from a terminal.
Patch installer troubleshooting
The patch installer may not launch if UAC is enabled on a Windows 7/8/2008/2008 R2/2012
Editions. Users must first disable the UAC using the procedure provided in the troubleshooting
section of the Brocade Network Advisor SAN User Manual 12.0.0 and then launch the patch
installer.
Call home
Network Advisor 12.0.0 and later do not support Brocade domestic and international call home
centers.
Support Saves may take a long time with large databases
As databases grow larger from Event, sFlow, and Performance Collector data, the support save
operation may take a long time to run. Larger databases promote longer support save operations.
Make sure you have a minimum of 20 GB disk space for support save and backup operations.
Installation on Network Mounted Drives is not supported.
Installation onto a windows network mounted drive is not supported but installation, if attempted,
is allowed and DB fails to start.
Client disconnects
Under heavy server load or degraded network links, there is a potential for the Network Advisor
client to disconnect from the server. The workaround is to restart the client.
