FW 07.01.02/HAFM SW 08.06.00 HP StorageWorks HA-Fabric Manager Release Notes (AA-RUR6G-TE, August 2005)

Workaround

The LAN connection m

ust b e restored. Stopping HAFM has no impact on the Fibre

Channel o peration

s of any ed ge switch or director. Monitoring switch operations,

logging events, a

nd implementing conﬁguration changes are interrupted only while

theLANisnotconnected.

Effect of no L A N connection to HAFM appliance during boot up

If the HAFM appliance has no LAN connection while booting up, but it is connected

after booting up, the remote client sessions to the HAFM appliance are not a llowed.

Also, the I P address that is d isplayed when you select SAN > Server Properties is

possibly incorrect.

Workaround

This is corrected by restoring the L AN connection and rebooting the appliance.

Rebooting the appliance has no impact on the Fibre Channel operations of any switch

or director. Only monitoring switch operations, logging events, and implementing

conﬁguration changes are interrupted.

Setting HAFM appliance LAN to use DHCP is activated to wrong LAN

When setting the IP conﬁguration for the HAFM appliance using the LCD panel,

setting DHCP con ﬁguration for LAN 1 causes L A N 2, not L AN 1, to be conﬁgured for

DHCP. Similarly, setting DHCP conﬁguration for LAN 2 causes LAN 1, not LAN 2, to

be conﬁgured for D H CP.

Workaround

If you wish

to conﬁ gure LAN 1 for DHCP, select LAN 2 instead of LAN 1 at the start of

the conﬁg

uration procedure. If you wish to conﬁgure LAN 2 for DHCP, select LAN 1

instead

of LAN 2 at the start of the conﬁg uration procedure.

Event notiﬁcation by e-mail or call home can be missing information under

certain conditions

Thoughveryunlikely,itispossiblethatanEventNotiﬁcation by e-mail or call home may

be missing information normally contained in these messages. This occurs if a switch

detects an event that requires a notiﬁcation to be issued, but HAF M has not completed

discovery of the switch. This discovery of a switch is usually completed within a few

seconds, so it is unlikely, though not impossible, that an event occurs during this shor t

span of time. Discovery of a switch o ccurs when it is added to HAFM for manag em ent,

and when the Ethernet connection to a switch is broken and reestablished, such as

when a switch’s ﬁrmware is upgraded.
