HP Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager 7.0 User Guide

1. Access the Virtual Connect Manager user interface on the VC Domain that does not have
the SFP-SR connector.
2. Edit the network with the incorrectly labeled Auto port speed to use another port speed
value (for example, 1 Gb).
3. Save the edits.
4. Edit the network again, and set the port speed to Auto.
• If, after performing data migration, you are running Virtual Connect Manager and try to access
a VCEM-managed VC Domain, the following error message appears:
VC Domain locked by Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager <CMS IP
address>.
To resolve this issue:
1. Go to the CMS and invoke the MS-DOS command box.
2. Change the directory to the <DRIVE>\<VCEM INSTALLATION FOLDER>.
3. Run either of the following CLI commands:
◦ >vcem -updatevcmdesc
◦ >vcem -uvcm
To validate that the problem has been corrected, browse to the Virtual Connect Managers
that showed the incorrect message to ensure that the correct message is displayed.
• Disabling SNMP on Virtual Connect Manager 2.30 can result in improper propagation of
SNMP enablement in the VC Domain Group. This issue occurs if the following conditions exist:
◦ The VC Domain Group contains a combination of VC firmware version 2.30 and earlier
firmware such as 2.10.
◦ You select a VC Domain running VC firmware 2.30, put it into VC Domain Maintenance,
and use the Virtual Connect Manager user interface to disable SNMP.
While a permanent fix will be provided in a future VC firmware release, you can resolve this
by performing these steps:
1. Select a VC Domain running another version of VC firmware in the VC Domain Group.
For example, select a VC Domain with 2.10 firmware.
2. Put the VC Domain into VC Domain. Maintenance.
3. In maintenance mode, use the Virtual Connect Manager user interface to disable SNMP.
4. Return to the VCEM user interface and accept the VC Domain maintenance changes. This
action causes VCEM to propagate a SNMP disabled status to all members in the VC
Domain Group.
• VCEM cannot manage a VC Domain that configures a Shared Uplink Set or Ethernet Network
with the following:
◦ Connection mode set to Failover
◦ More than one port with Port Role value set to Primary or no Port Role set to Primary
To resolve the issue, access Virtual Connect Manager and set one port to be the primary.
• VCEM cannot manage a VC Domain that configures an Ethernet Uplink Port with a
Speed/Duplex value as Disabled. VCEM always replicates the VC Domain configuration
with Speed/Duplex set to Auto.
However, VCEM does not prevent you from adding such VC Domain to a VC Domain Group.
• VCEM fails to add a VC Domain that configures an Ethernet Uplink Port with a Speed/Duplex
value as Disabled to the same VC Domain Group to which it previously belonged.
To resolve the issue, perform the following steps after the Add to VC Domain Group job failure:
