HP StorageWorks Fabric Manager 5.2.0a Release Notes (5697-6482, February 2007)

Switch icon colo

For switches running Fabric OS 2.6.1e, the switch icons in Fabric Manager might not change color

correctly during status changes, par ticularly when changing from a healthy state (green) to a user-induced

disabled state (yellow) .

Missing switches in Fabric Manager

Various anomalies occur when there are missing switches in a fabric.

Workaround: Delete switches with the “missing” status and refresh the fabric.

You need to take a new baseline for Change Management to avoid notifications regarding ISL changes

in the fabric after the missing switch is removed from Fabric Manager.

XPath OS Meta SANs

In an XPath OS

meta SAN environment with 1500 LSAN zones or more, Fabric Manager might fail to

retrieve LS A

N information. When you launch FCR Info view for a large meta SAN, Fabric M a nag er might

show an erro

r if the LSAN information cannot be retrieved.

Workaround: Use the CLI commands lsanzoneshow, fcrproxydevshow,andfcrphydevshow to

view the LSAN information.

Uninstalling Fabric Manager

After uninstalling Fabric Manager, please check if the Fabric Manager installation folder still exists on

the host. If it still exists, then manually delete it.
