HP StorageWorks Fabric Manager v5.3.0a release notes (AA-RWFGA-TE, October 2007)

FC Router configuration wiz ard prefill values
Before moving to the next pa ge of any Fabric Manager wizard, always verify that the
information on the screen is correct. Some information may be prefilled with values other
than those desire
d. In some configurations, the FC Router confi guration wizard prefills
an incorrect FID value.
Deleted switch appears in Fabric View
In rare cases, a switch that has been removed from a fabric may still appear online in
Fabric Manager. The switch has been removed, and can safely be ignored. To remove
the switch from the view, refresh the fabric view using the Discovery > Refresh Status
Information for SAN menu option. If this does not clear the removed switch, delete
and rediscover the fabric.
SSL and the Management Console
When SSL is enabled for a fabric, the Fabric Manager Server Management Console
(SMC) does not verify the host name when authentication is set to switch-based. If the
CN of the swi
tch cert is n ot a switch IP address the Fabric Manager client startup fails.
Device Diagnostic wizard
The Device Diagnostic wizard might hang when you start to run an analysis. If this
happens, restart the Fabric Manager server. You can do this from the Ser vices tab in
the server Management Console.
End-to-End performance monitoring for Fabric OS 4.1.2 to 4.2.2b
In very rare circumstances, for switches running Fabric OS 4.1.2 to 4.2.2b, the PSD
might crash after enabling end-to-end performance monitoring from Fabric Manager 4.4
and later. This could lead to a switch reboot or failover.
Workaround: Upgrade to Fabric OS versions later than 4.2.2b, 4.4.0d, or 5.0.1; or
disable end-to-end performance monitoring from Fabric Manager.
Fabric discovery
If you use Fabric OS 4.4.0c or e a rlier 4.x releases as the launch switch, you will not
see any devices in Fabric Manager for the fabric if the FDMI-capable devices are
configured with port attributes.
Workaround: Upgrade to Fabric OS versions later than 4.4.0d or 4.4.2.
