HP Virtual Connect 3.70 Release Notes

Issues and workarounds 8
On the Ethernet Networks (Server Connections) screen the "Go to Network" action does not open the Edit
Network screen.
Workaround
Go to Ethernet Networks (External Connections) screen and perform the "Edit" action for that network.
Issue
HP recommends that the “Prevent flooding of unregistered multicast traffic” option remains disabled when
using VCEM to manage the VC domain with the “VCEM Compatibility Mode” set to a VC firmware version
earlier than 3.70.
Issue
VC occasionally reports a loss of communication with a remote enclosure. VC automatically recovers the
communication within seconds.
Issue
The search functionality in the left navigation tree of the GUI is incomplete. The help text states that you can
search for Network Access Groups, Modules, Interconnect Bays, and Device Bay items. These options are
not implemented in this release. To access a specific item, use the corresponding link in the left navigation
tree, and then locate the item on the right side of the screen.
Issue
While configuring a Shared Uplink Set in failover mode using the GUI, the GUI incorrectly allows uplink ports
that are designated as Primary ports to be deleted, which can render the Shared Uplink Set without any
Primary uplink ports.
Workaround
When using the GUI to configure a Shared Uplink Set, do not attempt to remove the uplink port
designated as Primary.
Issue
In a VC domain with a VC profile assigned to a BL2x220 server blade, when the I/O module connected to
the dual-technology port is replaced with a module using the other technology, the OA detects that the
identity of the server changed, but VC does not detect the change. As a result, the OA will not power on the
server until VC updates the server configuration.
Workaround
To resolve the problem, unassign and reassign the profiles to the two server bays (for example, Bays 1a
and 1b), hot-plug the server, or simulate a hot-plug of the server using the OA reset server
command. The problem can also be resolved if VC restarts, fails over, reboots, receives a firmware
update, or re-evaluates the server after an OA failover.
Issue
Clicking Backup Configuration on the Domain Settings (Backup/Restore) screen and then navigating away
from that screen does not save the configuration file.
Workaround
During the backup operation, do not refresh the screen or navigate to another screen.
Issue
Under rare conditions, if the time setting on an enclosure is modified in such a way that the HP VC 8Gb
20-Port FC Module or the HP Virtual Connect 4Gb FC Module happen to set the DHCP lease renewal date
