Cisco MDS 9000 Family Release Notes for Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 3.3(4)
OL-14116-12
Upgrading Your Cisco MDS SAN-OS Software Image
Step 2 Issue the no ivr virtual-fcdomain-add vsan-ranges vsan-range command to disable RDI mode on all
IVR enabled switches. The range of values for a VSAN ID is 1 to 4093. This can cause traffic disruption.
Note Complete Step 2 for all IVR enabled switches before moving to Step 3.
Step 3 Check the syslogs for any ISL that was isolated.
2005 Aug 31 21:52:04 switch %FCDOMAIN-2-EPORT_ISOLATED:
%$VSAN 2005%$ Isolation of interface
port-channel 52 (reason: unknown failure)
2005 Aug 31 21:52:04 switch %FCDOMAIN-2-EPORT_ISOLATED: %$VSAN 2005%$
Isolation of interface port-channel 51
(reason: domain ID assignment failure)
Step 4 Issue the following commands for the isolated switches in Step 3:
switch(config)# vsan database
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan vsan-id suspend
switch(config-vsan-db)# no vsan vsan-id suspend
Step 5 Issue the ivr refresh command to perform an IVR refresh on all the IVR enabled switches.
Step 6 Issue the copy running-config startup-config command to save the RDI mode in the startup
configuration on all of the switches.
Step 7 Follow the normal upgrade guidelines for Release 2.1(2b). If you are adding new switches running Cisco
MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(2b) or later, upgrade all of your existing switches to Cisco SAN-OS Release
2.1(2b) as described in this workaround. Then follow the normal upgrade guidelines for Release 3.3(4).
Note RDI mode should not be disabled for VSANs running in interop mode 2 or interop mode 3.
