HP Virtual Connect Version 3.18 Release Notes

Known issues 15
a multi-blade server, even though VC-assigned values exist. This problem does not affect the operation
of the server. The server blades have and operate with the correct VC-assigned WWNs and MAC
addresses.
To work around this issue, do the following:
a. Power off the server blade, if necessary.
b. Unassign the VC profile.
c. Reassign the VC profile.
d. Power on the server blade.
• In Virtual Connect release 3.0x, the Server Admin user is not able to modify the IGMP Snooping
settings. This known issue is related to the authorizations of the Server Admin user in the security token
being passed between VC software components. This issue will be fixed in a later release of Virtual
Connect. To work around this issue, the Server Admin user must log in as an Administrator to change
IGMP Snooping settings.
• WWNs used by other ports
In some circumstances, ports are shown as having WWNs that are in use by other ports. Observe the
Server Profile screen to be sure which mezzanine ports are in use. This issue will be addressed in a
future Virtual Connect release.
• Multiple or unsupported versions of Adobe Flash Player cause the Firefox web browser to crash
On some combinations of the Firefox web browser, Adobe Flash Player, and the operating system, the
Adobe Flash Player causes the Firefox web browser to crash unexpectedly—especially if multiple
versions or an older/unsupported version of the Flash Player (for example, Flash v8.0) is installed with
Firefox, even if the older/unsupported version of the Flash plug-in is disabled. HP recommends that
Virtual Connect 3.0x users install only one supported version of the Adobe Flash Player plug-in with the
Firefox web browser.
Depending on the installed versions of the Firefox web browser, Adobe Flash Player, and the operating
system (for example, Firefox v3.5.9 and Adobe Flash Player v9.0/v10.0 installed on GNU Linux
v2.6.9), certain fix patches from Adobe for the Adobe Flash Player may be needed. For the latest
information on fix patches for the Flash Player plug-in, see the Adobe website
(http://www.adobe.com/support/security/index.html#flashplayer).
Also, users might experience problems with the Firefox web browser hanging or crashing and then
showing the "failed to create MSXML object" error. This is a known issue with XSLT transformations for
the Firefox web browser. For more information about downloading and installing a patch for your
specific version of the Firefox web browser, see the following:

• The server profile wizard is not supported by the VC GUI. This wizard will be supported in a future
release.
• Internet Explorer 8 is only supported in IE7 compatibility mode.
• Editing the SAN fabric should not allow changes to the fabric's I/O bay. The “Add Port” menu may
show incorrect menu entries instead of showing the port details only for the current or previously added
bay entries. If they are selected, the SAN fabric is not updated with the current modifications.
