Open Manage Network Manager – Release Notes
Users who have configured the web server to use SSL can run
$OWARE_USER_ROOT/oware/bin/updatetomcatcert
to generate a new cert
and update the keystore if the certificate has expired. All recent releases
include a certificate which does not expire for approximately 100 years. (SCR
43257)
• If you want to use the web client with a Linux server, you must use the pro-
cess monitor to start the application server, or otherwise ensure Xvfb is run-
ning prior to starting the appserver. For example, here are commands to start
Xvfb (run as root):
Linux:
/usr/bin/Xvfb :0 -dev vfb screen 0 1152x900x8 &
or
/usr/X11R6/bin/Xvfb :0 -screen 0 1152x900x8 &

• This application supports SNMPv3 with privacy using DES privacy encryption
only. (37796, 38959)
• To set the environment correctly for command line functions, after installa-
tion, type oware (or . /etc/.dsienv in Linux—[dot][space]/etc/[dot]dsienv)
before running the specified command. Also: This application can run on any
Linux desktop environment (CDE, KDE, Gnome, and so on) but the installer
will only install shortcuts for CDE. (36442)
• For Linux, you must install no more than a single instance of MySQL—the
one installed with this Element Management System. Before you install,
remove any MySQL if it exists on your Linux machine.
• Some device drivers do not support chassis view for the equipment they man-
age. An error appears when you try to access chassis view:
Chassis view for this
device is currently not supported.
Performance:
This application cannot respond faster than the network per-
mits, but the complexity of devices is also important. For example, it can take
time to delete a device that has 4000 interfaces. Such a device can take up to
several minutes to delete, depending on your installation’s hardware.
• This application supports only syslog messaging over UDP, not syslog messag-
ing over TCP at this time (23592)
• When you change the SSH key, subsequent logins can fail if you select the
Regenerate key
option and create a new key. This application caches the key
value in a file:
<installdir>\oware3rd\cygwin\.ssh\known_host.
You must delete this file since the application looks there for the key. The
application then generates a new file with the new key. This applies to all
device drivers using SSH. (23802)
• A device login banner can not contain the same character(s) that are used
during the device login sequence. For example hashmarks (#) greater than
symbols (>) etc. (24992)
• Clicking on a port or turner refreshes the screen. To display the port edit
screen, you must select a port, and then click
Open.

• This application does not support interface identifier numbers that are very
large. If the query “Fetching children, please wait” freezes it may be on
