Enhancements
• MSL encryption tokens (AN4095A), which were incorrectly manufactured with non-released firm-
ware, are now detected. When a token that was manufactured incorrectly is inserted into the USB
port and the configuration of the status page is accessed by the RMI, a warning message is dis-
played on the RMI and OCP, and a warning condition is logged as 0xE7 - "Incorrect Key Server
Token type". This release will protect customers currently using the incorrectly manufactured tokens
from damaging the device. A Customer Bulletin is available instructing the customer on how to
obtain replacement tokens and properly transfer their keys to the new token.
Fixes
• Fixed a case where the master Library in an extended library configuration appeared to stop
communication with the lower Library. In this case, no errors are displayed in log files, the RMI,
or the OCP, yet when attempting to power off the master Library, the following warning message
is displayed on the OCP: Info Lower Library: Unit is Busy.
• SNMP Version 2 traps now work correctly for all community names.
• SNMP Version 3 was offered in the configuration pull down menu, but SNMPv3 is not supported.
The SNMP Version 3 option has been removed from the menu.
