Limitations DRAFT: BROCADE CONFIDENTIAL Chapter 20 In this chapter •General Web Tools limitations 271 General Web Tools limitations Table 23 lists general Web Tools limitations that apply to all browsers and switch platforms. TABLE 23 Web Tools limitations Area Details Blade Failure Browser Browser Browser Browser Chassis not ready for management Configuration If a blade fails on the switch, the Web Tools interface can still display slot and ports as healthy. In this case, the failure might not be visible in Web Tools until the Web Tools window is reopened. For Internet Explore 7.0, the default setting is to disable Telnet functionality. You must make the appropriate changes in the registry to enable Telnet functionality if you want to use it. Launching the default Telnet is not supported in Windows Vista and Windows 2008 server. Fabric Watch, Switch Admin, HA, Name Server, and Zone Admin 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, a blank browser window displays 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, restart, or other causes). Workaround: If Fabric Watch, Switch Admin, HA, Name Server, or Zone Admin hang, close this window and relaunch the module. 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 Fabric Watch, Switch Admin, Name Server, and Topology from Switch Explorer through Internet Explorer, the applet windows cannot be resized and the Maximize button is disabled. If the switch is still in the process of booting and you try to launch the Web Tools by entering the IP address, this message displays in the browser. You should wait for the switch to finish the startup sequence. Web Tools does not support NAT router configurations and does not function correctly with switches behind a NAT router.
