The Fabric Watch, Switch Admin, HA, Name Server, and Zone Admin
modules are separate applets embedded in HTML pages. The successful
launch of the applet depends on whether the browser can successfully load the
HTML page. Very occasionally, you will see a blank browser window with
the message “loading pages...” that is stuck. This is likely caused by a sudden
loss of switch Web server (either by normal HA failover, reboot, or other
causes).
Workaround:
If the Fabric Watch, Switch Admin, HA, Name Server, or
Zone Admin modules hang, close this window and relaunch the module.
Browser
A Web Tools browser window might stop responding following an HA
failover immediately after a zoning configuration was enabled or disabled. It
is likely that the Web daemon was terminated by the HA failover before the
HTTP request was sent back.
Workaround:
If one of the Web Tools modules is hanging, close the window
and relaunch the module. If the module is locked, shut down and relaunch the
Web Tools application.

When you launch the Fabric Watch, Switch Admin, Name Server, and

windows cannot be resized and the Maximize button is disabled.
