Caveats
Resolved Caveats
• CSCsk22374
Symptom: Some switching modules may reload after an upgrade to SAN-OS Release 3.0(1)
through Release 3.2(1a). This issue is seen only on the MDS 12-port, 24-port, and 48-port 4-Gbps
Fibre Channel switching modules, and on the 4-port 10-Gbps Fibre Channel switching module. It
occurs after code has been downloaded to the module.
Workaround: This issue is resolved.
• CSCsk31869
Symptom: An IVR zone set activation or deactivation fails in a large topology. This occurs if an
IVR fabric merge has failed and IVR queries CFS for a list of peer switches; however, CFS does not
return the complete list of peers. IVR waits indefinitely for some of the peers to respond, which
causes the IVR activation or deactivation to fail. This issue is seen only in very large topologies (for
example, 75 switches).
Workaround: This issue is resolved.
• CSCsk58368
Symptom: During an in-service switch upgrade (ISSU) of a switch with an MDS-18/4 module, IVR
is initialized later than the Fibre Channel name service (FCNS). FCNS checks with IVR for entries
that it has in its persistent storage service (PSS) and that belong to IVR (for virtual domains). Since
IVR is not initialized, it will not respond to FCNS. Because of this, an end device may not be
advertised to transient VSANs or may not be visible to the IVR end device in a target VSAN.
Workaround: This issue is resolved.
• CSCsk71439
Symptom: Fabric Manager installation may fail with a messaging and transaction service (MTS)
error message.
Workaround: This issue is resolved.
• CSCsk73484
Symptom: When changing from Layer2 to Layer3 mode using the install ssi modflash:xxx module
x l2-upgrade command, a test is run that may detect a parity error. If a parity error is detected, then
an attempt to clear the parity error occurs. If the parity error is cleared then the install proceeds
otherwise, the installation fails.
Workaround: This issue is resolved.
