Open Manage Network Manager - Release Notes 9 installation. The following are the startup commands for the embedded database: Linux (executed as the root user): /etc/init.d/owaredb start You should see the following response in the shell where you execute this command: Starting MySQL[ OK ] Windows: net start mysql You should see the following response in the shell where you execute this command: The MySQL service was started successfully. • Red Hat Password Malfunction- If you launch a new form, password fields in Red Hat Linux may not work. Workaround: Before typing into a password field, type/change something in a normal text field. Then return to the password field and it should let you enter characters. This is a third party issue already known to Redhat on 1.6: (878) • Topology-You can tile printing topology views over several pages; however, if you make that number of pages very large-for example, 100,000-generating the print job or preview will adversely impact performance. If this occurs, OpenManage Network Manager may freeze. (750) • Printing Topologies-If you change the page orientation to landscape then print, label text appears backwards and upsidedown on Japanese Windows XP Pro. Workaround: Print in portrait not landscape orientation. (749) • Linux Headless Servers-For headless Linux systems, you must change the DISPLAY variable. Use DISPLAY=:623:0 rather than DISPLAY=:0.0. • Ethernet link discovery does not discover links to servers. (456) • In some managers, the max row count limits any query to return the proper number of items, but changing it may return an inaccurate number of rows. (44454) • Too many open file errors appear in logs. Workaround: On Redhat Linux installations, modify /etc/security/limits.conf on the application server/mediation server installations. Add the following to the file to lift the file limits: username hard nofile 90000 username soft nofile 90000 Replace username with the name of the user under which the application server was installed. (44236) • Uninstalling on Windows XP, Service Pack 3 may produce a benign error: owprocmon.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. (43481) • You can delete a filter already in use for a manager. If you do this, then the next time you open that manager, it opens with its default filter. (43008) • If the ifindex value changes on the ports/interfaces while the application is discovering them, discovery does not work. (41801)
