Cisco MDS 9000 Family Release Notes for Cisco MDS NX-OS Release 5.2(8a)

OL-27554-05

Caveats

The following example shows how to delete the Alias2 and rename Alias1 to Alias2:

Example 2

device-alias delete Alias2

device-alias commit

Use the show device-alias session status command to verify the device-alias session status.

device-alias rename Alias1 Alias2

device-alias commit

Use the show device-alias session status command to verify the device-alias session status.

Note You can use multiple device-alias commands of the same type such as delete, rename, and add in the

same batch if the names are unique.

• CSCtr10877

Symptom: Following an ISL flap that isolates some switches in the fabric (and the corresponding

FCR peers) and then later merges them again, some FCR peers might get out of sync with the SSM

switch FCR peer (that is, the FCR peer that owns a configuration) during the peer discovery phase.

Consequently, some application flows might not come online, or might even be deleted.

Workaround: Enter the following supervisor commands on the problematic FCR peer, which will

trigger this FCR peer to resync with the rest of the fabric, and force it to come out of the error state:

switch# test fc-redirect config sync-with-fabric

switch# test fc-redirect config sync-with-fabric all-peers

If more than one peer is affected by this issue, additional steps are needed. If the application flows

do not come online, then the application CLI commands need to be checked to verify that the flows

did not get deleted. If they did, the flows need to be recreated again through the application CLI

commands or Cisco DCNM-SAN interface.

• CSCtw64713

Symptom: Occasionally, a 10-G ISL between a 32-port 8-Gbps Advanced Fibre Channel Switching

Module (DS-X9232-256K9) or a 48-port 8-Gbps Advanced Fibre Channel Switching Module

(DS-X9248-256K9) and an older generation Cisco MDS 9000 module can take a long time to come

up. The link can go into an error-disabled state.

Workaround: None.

• CSCty82906

Symptom: On a Windows XP system, the master key rekey cannot detect a smart card and displays

the following message:

Exception reading smartcard:CKR_OPERATION_NOT_INITIALIZED

Workaround: None.

• CSCtr50223

Symptom: On the MDS 9513 switch, when an MSM-18/4 module boots up, it sends a request to the

supervisor module to mount the modflash on the MSM-18/4 module. If there is a timeout or error in

response, the following syslog message displays:

2011 Jul 14 01:18:13 sw-dc5-br2-12 %LC_MNT_MGR-SLOT3-2-LC_MNT_MGR_ERROR: SUP mount

failed. MTS receive timedout

2011 Jul 14 01:19:06 sw-dc5-br2-12 %PROC_MGR-SLOT3-2-ERR_MSG: ERROR: PID 1144

(lc_mnt_mgr) exited abnormally, exit status (0xa)
