Dell PowerConnect OpenManage Network Manager Release Notes 5.1 - Page 5

5 • In some cases a single managed object may be discoverable via multiple IP addresses. Each discovered IP creates a new inventory object and will count against any licensed Right To Manage total. Workaround: Network elements should be managed through a single interface/IP. Additional discovered interfaces should be deleted leaving only one managed object in inventory. (11540) • Discovery-When specifying network addresses using the Subnet type, you must specify the Network address at the beginning of the subnet since OpenManage Network Manager assumes it is the starting IP address for the range. If you specify an address in the middle of the subnetwork then OpenManage Network Manager may discover devices outside of that subnetwork. This also means that IP addresses in the network that precede the specified address are not discovered. To avoid these issues, use the CIDR specification of the network to discover rather that the subnet ID. (16803) • Link discovery currently does not find one-ended links. (16305) • Devices not implementing LLDP MIBs with complete and correct data will prevent OMNM from discovering links for the device. Also some devices encode STP data collected via SNMP in a way that is difficult to decipher. In these cases, the algorithm OMNM logs a warning message "Problem determining designated port encoding algorithm" during device link discovery. (16438) • The Red Hat system clock can differ one hour from the application server clock. (15524) • When OMNM status icon in the tray is green and you select procman ("process manager") restart from Windows' Control Panel services, an error message appears saying the service did not stop properly. The tray icon then turns white. Since the application server is still running, when you try to restart procman again from control panel, the icon turns red. Workaround: Stop all Java and WMI processes in the process manager. A system reboot also re-initializes the OWProcMan (process monitor). Note that the service name may be different if your package has been specifically branded. The executable path for the service is \....\oware\bin\owprocman.exe. (16335) • The password confirmation field in the user account (My Account) settings always says claims entered passwords do not match. Workaround: Save an empty password, then enter the new password and resave. (13504) • After rebooting the web server host, you may have to manually restart the Tomcat/Synergy Service manager that appears in the system tray. To get the manager back into the system tray, navigate to the Menu item under OMNM > Synergy Manager. This puts the manager back into the system tray if you want to actively monitor the service. (14386) • Saving a view and marking it as default prevents reverting to the original default view without deleting the saved default view. (15463) • Intermittent issues and error messages appear related to Window 2008 platform. (17143) File Management • If you edit a configuration and save it with a change, without restoring the file, it is assigned the Current label. (19385)
