SolutionClosed defect summary
Fixed in DCFM 10.1.3The Port Optics dialog does not display information for nondefault lo-
gical switches.
Fixed in DCFM 10.1.3
nl
DCFM now prevents the user from
adding port numbers higher than 31
to a logical switch configured for the
256 area limit with port-based area
assignment.
DCFM incorrectly allows assigning port numbers higher than 32 on a
48-port blade to a logical switch if the 256 area limit is set with a port-
based area assignment. It also allows setting the 256 area limit if the
logical switch already has ports higher than 31.
Fixed in DCFM 10.1.3Changes made in the client export port are not effective after a client
restart in DCFM 10.1.2. or earlier.
Fixed in DCFM 10.1.3
nl
Workaround—Exit the client and
then re-launch it.
After a storage array is created, the connection between the storage
array and the switch is not displayed in the topology view.
Fixed in DCFM 10.1.3DCFM is unable to recognize a smartcard reader on a local client on
Linux or Solaris hosts because the Libpcsclite.so file is not included
in the DCFM installation.
Fixed in DCFM 10.1.3Web Linker crashes when Top Talkers is enabled for the Brocade 200E
in DCFM.
nl
Symptom—Some of the switch processes are terminated and switch
performance is reduced.

SolutionClosed defect summary
Fixed in DCFM 10.1.4When historical performance data collection is enabled, DCFM can
nl
experience slower response times. This is due to an increase in the number
of performance records in the database, and can eventually cause the
disk to run out of space.
Fixed in DCFM 10.1.4All zoning transactions using DCFM are aborted on a virtual fabric.
However, the same zoning transactions are processed successfully using
the CLI.
Fixed in DCFM 10.1.4FTP-related operations from the internal FTP server fail.
Fixed in DCFM 10.1.4In an FCR/FCIP configuration, the LSAN soning dialog box does not dis-
play edge fabrics if the FID is set to 1.
Fixed in DCFM 10.1.4
nl
Workaround prior to this upgrade:
You could avoid this issue by
nl
using the CLI to create and config-
ure logical switches.
Occasionally, after creating logical switches and adding ports to each of
them, the logical switch change confirmation and status shows one or
more of the logical switch configurations failed.
