HP StorageWorks B-series Data Center Fabric Manager Enterprise, Professional Plus, and Professional 10.3.4 Release Notes (5697-0436, April 2010 - includes all 10.3.x versions)

Performance Data Aging tab has been removed from Server Management
Console
You cannot configure the Performance Data Aging settings in DCFM 10.1.4 or later. The tab has
been removed from Server Management Console (SMC). The default configuration settings are as
follows:
• 288 samples in a 5-minute period
• 144 samples in a 30-minute period
• 84 samples in a 2-hour period
• 90 samples in a 1-day period
• 606 total samples
When migrating from an earlier release to DCFM 10.3.3, all historical data is truncated with respect
to the default samples, and the aging configuration is not migrated.
Unable to launch Element Manager for M-EOS switches
After migrating from EFCM to DCFM, using the lPv4 address to discover M-EOS switches in dual
mode prohibits the use of management tools. This is because DCFM uses lPv6 addresses as the
preferred IP mechanism. As a workaround, do one of the following:
• Before migrating to DCFM, disable dual mode on the M-EOS switches.
• After migrating to DCFM, delete and then rediscover the fabric.
NOTE:
Before deleting the fabric, be sure to back up the zone information, historical performance data
(if applicable), and names, and then import the information after the discovery is complete.
Encryption configuration has limited support
The current commit limitation of a total of 25 LUN transactions (add, update, and remove) can cause
delays in registering changes for LUN provisioning. To avoid this situation, HP recommends that you
commit each transaction before making additional changes.
Incorrect discovery status displayed for VF-enabled switches
During the Discovery of VF enabled switches, if an incorrect user ID is provided for the SNMPv3 user
name, the following message appears:
The SNMP user ID entered is not defined as FOS switch user
If you then provide the correct user ID, the message remains and does not display the correct status.
HP recommends that you provide the correct user ID while discovering VF-enabled switches.
M-EOS switches losing and gaining manageability
M-EOS switches lose and gain manageability with an Invalid protocol Discovery status if the
fabric contains an Mi10K configured with an API user. HP recommends that you remove the API user
from the Mi10K to avoid this issue.
The Mi10K does not gain manageability in DCFM after migration when it is discovered using SNMPv3
with APIuser in EFCM. After migration from EFCM to DCFM, the Mi10K does not gain manageability
because the Configure for Intrepid 10k check box is not selected, and is displayed as (API User
