HP StorageWorks 16-EL Fabric OS V3.1.1X Release Notes - Page 14

Fabric OS Switch Beaconing Switch beaconing is not preserved across a failover. If you start beaconing, a failover will cause all lights to stop flashing. If this occurs, reissue the command to resume switch beaconing. IP Addresses Do not set a switch or CP IP address for the Ethernet interface to 0.0.0.0. Supernetting of IP addresses, also known as CIDR, is not supported in Fabric OS. LTO 2 Tape Drive Support When using the LTO 2 Tape Drive, the user must perform the following command on both Fabric OS 3.x and 4.x: switch> portcfggport port# (port into which the drive is plugged). Performing this command allows the tape drive to function in Point to Point mode rather than in Loop mode. Security-PKICERT Utility Before using the PKICERT utility to prepare a Certificate Signing Request (CSR), ensure that there are no spaces in the switch names of any switches in the fabric. The website that processes the CSRs and generates the digital certificates does not accept switch names containing spaces, and any CSRs that do not conform to this requirement will be rejected. Telnet passwsd Command Using the Telnet passwd command in Secure mode to change the password results in all sessions using that password to be logged out, including the session that changed the session. This logging out is expected behavior. The session terminates if you change the password in Secure mode. 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. 14 Fabric OS Version 3.1.1x Release Notes
