Fabric OS 3.1.1c Release Notes
Web Tools, Java bug
If a dialog box is displayed from the Switch Admin window of the Web Tools and
the user selects another dialog box from Web Tools, a Windows display
error results.
This display error is a known defect in Java 1.3. The issue is documented at the
following location:
(bug ID 4763605).
To avoid the display error, open only one dialog box at a time or launch another
Switch Admin session in a separate window.
Zoning
To use Zoning in a non-RCS (Reliable Commit Service) mode fabric (in a fabric
containing switches with a firmware version older than v2.6.1x, v3.1.x, and
v4.1.1x), it is recommended that all appropriate Zoning licenses be installed on all
switches in the fabric before attempting to bring a switch into the fabric.
Additionally, if the Zoning license has been removed, the user must make sure it is
re-installed properly on the affected switch before attempting a
cfgenable
zoning operation. Failure to follow these steps can cause inconsistency of Zoning
configuration on the affected switches should a zoning operation be attempted
from a remote switch in the fabric. On the affected switches, an error message
appears on the console or Telnet session, indicating that the zoning license
is missing.
Note:
You can also see the error message by performing either the
errShow
or
errDump
command.
