Cisco MDS 9000 Family Release Notes for Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 3.2(2c)
OL-14116-03
Caveats
3. Readvertise the withdrawn domains using the ivr refresh command.
CSCsk49634
Symptom: In rare cases, an FCIP link might flap on a network with high latency and a consistently
high loss rate.
Workaround: None.
CSCsk49761
Symptom: When IVR exports a new virtual domain and multiple border switches export that virtual
domain, some of the entries in the Fibre Channel name server (FCNS) database that correspond to
this virtual domain may have partial entries where the port type contains a dash (-). This can then
lead to a lack of IVR communication between these devices and other IVR devices.
Workaround: Use the show ivr internal vdri vsan vsan-id domain domain command to determine
which border switch is exporting the virtual domain. Then on any of the border switches that is
exporting the virtual domain, enter the following command for each device that has a partial FCNS
entry:
switch(config)# ivr device pwwn pwwn fcns register vsan vsan-id
In this example, pWWN is the port pWWN of the device and vsan-id is the VSAN that contains the
incomplete FCNS entries.
CSCsk51193
Symptom: Following an upgrade to Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 3.2(1) on a Cisco MDS 9124
switch, an interface is shown as up, but there is no FLOGI information for the port in the FLOGI
database.
Workaround: Set the port mode to F.
CSCin95789
Symptom: When you configure Cisco Traffic Analyzer to capture traffic on one or more interfaces
on a Windows platform, the configuration web page might not show that the interface has been
selected for traffic capture even though traffic capture on that interface is enabled.
Workaround: Check the logs to clarify that the correct interface has been selected.
CSCse31881
Symptom: If there are IP over Fibre Channel (IPFC) interfaces configured on an SSM, you might
experience issues if you downgrade from SAN-OS Release 3.x to Release 2.x.
Workaround: Before downgrading, remove the IPFC interface on the module and then recreate the
IPFC interface after the downgrade is complete.
CSCse47687
Symptom: If IP ACLs are applied to any IP Storage Gigabit Ethernet port, implicit deny does not
take effect.
Workaround: Configure explicit deny on the port.
CSCsg19148
Symptom: Time zone changes that are executed on an MDS switch do not take effect on the 12-port,
24-port, and 48 port 1-Gbps/2-Gbps/4-Gbps Fibre Channel modules, and on the 4-port 10-Gbps
module. This issue occurs in SAN-OS Releases 3.0(1), 3.0(2), 3.0(2a), and 3.0(3).
Time zone changes that are executed on an MDS switch do not take effect on the 16-port or 32-port
1-Gbps/2-Gbps module, on the 4-port or 8-port Gigabit Ethernet IP services module, the MPS-14/2
module, and on the SSM. This issue occurs in SAN-OS Release 3.0(3).
