Issues and suggested actions
HP VAN SDN Controller issues
The following are known issues with HP VAN Controller Release 2.0:
• REST call to get all the ports takes 5 seconds when the number of ports is 40k (CR141008)—The
REST call to get all ports takes more time as the number of ports increases.
• Auxiliary connections established by the device to the controller are not visible via REST or the
UI (CR140089)—Manage the device auxiliary connections to the controller from the switch
by telneting to the switch.
• When using Internet Explorer 9 or Internet Explorer 10, the controller console is blank
(CR138915)—Currently, IE 9 is not supported, and IE 10 has limited support. In IE 10,
OpenFlow Topology is unavailable.
• When restarting the sdncservice database, exceptions are reported in logs (CR141589)—The
following errors are expected only during the initialization phase, and don’t describe any
unexpected behavior:
◦ [2013-10-03 11:31:39.890] INFO t Resolve Thread (Bundle 81)
System.outInternal Exception: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException:
ERROR: relation "X" already exists...
◦ [2013-10-03 11:31:39.899] INFO t Resolve Thread (Bundle 81)
System.out[EL Warning]: ServerSession(2136794997)--Exception
[EclipseLink-4002] (Eclipse Persistence Services -
2.4.2.v20130514-5956486):
org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.DatabaseException
• Topology Map fails to display network-wide computed trees (CR137780)—The topology
viewer in HP VAN SDN Controller 2.0 topology UI shows only the devices discovered by the
controller pointed to by the browser, not the entire topology discovered by a team of controllers.
• OpenFlow topology GUI is not optimal when a large number of hosts or devices are connected
(CR140798)—The HP VAN SDN Controller 2.0 topology UI is not intended to represent large
topologies consisting of hundreds of elements.
• On team reboot, suppressed ports are lost (CR137854)—Suppressed ports information
(specifying the ports on which want to stop LLDP traffic) is not stored in persistence, and is lost
whenever the controller reboots. HP recommends that you maintain a backup of your suppressed
ports configuration.
• Comware switch OpenFlow behavior (CR138462)—When a flow is pushed to a extensibility
table with apply_actions as the instruction type, and the retrieved Flow Statistics using
Multipart Request apply_actions is correct, the CLI always shows Write actions.
• Tagged link between two devices is not discovered (CR138547)—If a link exists between a
pair of ports tagged to two different VLAN instances in Aggregate mode in OpenFlow, links
