Known Issues Replacing CD-ROM with ZIP Drive The CD-ROM should be installed in the Windows 2000 HAFM server only for loading and configuring the HAFM software, or for adding new director or edge switch firmware to the HAFM Firmware libraries. The CD-ROM should be replaced with the ZIP drive module for normal operation of the HAFM to allow for ZIP drive backups of the SAN configuration information. Losing LAN Connection to the HAFM Server Before Logging in to the HAFM Application If the LAN connection to the Windows 2000 HAFM server is lost before logging on to the HAFM application, you cannot log in to the application. If the LAN connection to the HAFM server is lost while the HAFM application is running, the application will stop and the following error message displays "Connection to the HAFM server lost. Click OK to exit the application." Workaround The LAN connection must be restored, and the HAFM server must be rebooted to restore normal HAFM operation. Neither stopping the HAFM application nor rebooting the server has any impact on the Fibre Channel operations of any switch or director. Only monitoring switch operations, logging events, and implementing configuration changes are interrupted. Effect of No LAN Connection to HAFM Server During Boot Up If the HAFM server has no LAN connection while booting up, but is connected after booting up, the IP address that displays in the HAFM Product View window title bar may be incorrect. Workaround This can be corrected by restoring the LAN connection, exiting the HAFM application, restarting the HAFM application, and logging back in. 16 HA-Fabric Manager Release Notes
