4 Installation • Upgrading from previous versions may update device Model numbers. After upgrade is complete, you may need to edit pre-existing filters that refer to model numbers for them to function correctly. Also after the upgrade is complete, the model numbers for Powerconnect B-Series fabric devices may not change until you perform a resync on them. (18794) • Checking Allow Strangers to create accounts may produce a defective login screen. (17364) • CORBA is no longer supported, but SOAP and Web Services have improved, and CORBA orbs often support these. (11513) • Windows 2008 Terminal Server is not supported. The installer becomes nonresponsive with Data Execution Prevention enabled. This option is disabled by default on Windows Server 2008, but is enabled on a Windows Server 2008 machine running Terminal Server. (02310) • During uninstall on Windows 2008 Server, the uninstaller Java process does not exit correctly. This leaves files on the machine. Workaround: Either manually kill the Java process in the task manager or restart the system. It is safe to remove the remaining files after the process has been terminated. (14089) Web Client • Audit trails do not always show deleted equipment names after the device becomes unmanaged. To see such information, use Java client. (17097) • Audit Trail may show blanks for the Subject column in the Audit Trail portlet. This is because some audited tasks are targetless (No subject). (17643) • NoClassDefFoundError errors can occur during application server startup if the portal tries to access classes in the application server too soon. The portal does this if portlet calls occur during appserver startup. Workaround: Restart application server. (15854) • Adding a page when the focus is on a page with sub-pages does not save it to the menu bar. Workaround: Create pages in the Manage > Page menu or create one after selecting a page with no submenus. (15909) • In a Windows 7 environment Internet Explorer may not fully display all menu items. Workaround: Use Firefox, Chrome or Safari as the browser. (13320) • Exporting to Excel does not work in Internet Explorer. Workaround: Ctrl + click the Excel export button in OpenManage Network Manager. (13456) • Clicking My Assets in the toolbar repeatedly may halt portlets. Workaround: Restarting the browser, or signing out and signing back in lets things work again. This is the result of built-in phishing protection. (10942) • Mutlitab browsing is not supported and may produce unpredictable results. (10963) • In a job viewer window, some audit trail messages may appear too narrow to read in their entirety. Workaround(s): Enlarge the browser and the job viewer window grows bigger (maximized, you will see more of the message). The job viewer window lets you copy and paste the message text into applications like notepad for less restricted viewing and for additional message analysis. (16320)
