HP Specific Known Issues Problem Description: Issuing an "End to End Connectivity" to the EVA 4400/6400/8400 may crash both EVA controllers at the same time. Workaround: None. Problem Description: Issuing an fcping to the EVA 4400/6400/8400 may crash the EVA controller. Workaround: None. Problem Description: If it becomes necessary to move an EVA controller port to a different port on the same C-series switch, or to a port on a different C-series switch, the corresponding controller port may become unavailable. Workaround: Restart the EVA controller. Problem Description: EVA controllers running VCS 3.xxx may log into the C-series 4Gbps modules at 1Gbps instead of the default 2Gbps. Workaround: Set the switch port speed to 2Gbps. Problem Description: The EVA4400/6400/8400 and MSA2000 series storage arrays may display as servers in the Fabric Manager topology diagram. Workaround: Perform the following steps to change the display of the array from a host icon to a storage icon. 1. Log into Fabric Manager 2. Under "Physical Attributes" open "End Devices" 3. Select "Hosts" and click on the "Enclosures" tab in the Information Pane 4. Under "Device Type" for the desired device, select "Disk" 5. Save changes by selecting the "Apply Changes" icon on the top left corner of the Information Pane Problem Description: VMware ESX on HP c-Class BladeSystem Server Blade using QMH2462 HBAs and FC Pass-Thru Module may fail to log into the C-series MDS 9216, MDS 9216A, or 16-port switching module. Workaround: Set the switch port mode to F. Problem Description: If it becomes necessary to move an MSA1000/1500 controller port to a different port on the same C-series switch, or to a port on a different C-series switch, the corresponding controller port may become unavailable. Workaround: Restart the MSA 1000/1500 controller. Problem Description: If an EVA controller running VCS 3.xxx is restarted, paths may fail to return on the C-series MDS 9020. Workaround: Disable and then re-enable the port the EVA is plugged into. Problem Description: EVA controllers running XCS 5.1xx or later may fail to log into the Cseries switches. Workaround: Set the switch port mode to F or FX and specify the speed (2Gbps or 4Gbps). Should the EVA controller fail to log in, unplug and reinsert the fibre channel cable. 19 MDS Multilayer Director & Multilayer Fabric Switches Release Notes
