.
This message is for debugging purposes and is also displayed during the upgrade of an MSM-18/4
module. An upgrade of the MSM-18/4 module where Cisco SME is enabled, is disruptive; however,
this syslog message does not indicate an issue.
Workaround: None.
CSCsk43927
Symptom: The following Fabric Manager client components that use SSH and Telnet do not work
well with NAT:
DMM storage job creation
Cisco SAN-OS software upgrade
Zone activation
Workaround: None.
CSCsk90998
Symptom: The signal loss counters in the output of the show interface fcx/y command are not
incremented.
Workaround: None.
CSCsm13002
Symptom: In rare cases, if a READ command issued by Cisco SME for media identification is
dropped or lost, the tape is marked as a clear-text tape. Subsequently, a CHECK_CONDITION with
ILI is returned when a READ is issued by the host. This can cause a backup application to mark the
tape as read-only.
Workaround: Unmount and remount the tape from the backup application to resolve this issue.
CSCsm15874
Symptom: In rare cases, when Cisco SME attempts to perform a tape device discovery of the
backend tapes, a SCSI command can stall. This may cause Cisco SME to remain in the device
discovery phase.
Workaround: Reload the module.
CSCsm17768
Symptom: There is a observable performance drop for backup and restore when Cisco SME is
introduced between a host and tape due to the increased latency.
Workaround: None.
CSCsm18303
Symptom: In certain cases with the Tape Recycle policy enabled in Cisco SME, a new key is
generated when a tape is recycled and the old key is not purged.
Workaround: Manually purge the older version of the key.
