Event noti, Effect of no LAN connection to HAFM appliance during boot up

Page 30 highlights

Workaround The LAN connection must be restored. Stopping HAFM has no impact on the Fibre Channel operations of any edge switch or director. Monitoring switch operations, logging events, and implementing configuration changes are interrupted only while the LAN is not connected. Effect of no LAN connection to HAFM appliance during boot up If the HAFM appliance has no LAN connection while booting up, but it is connected after booting up, the remote client sessions to the HAFM appliance are not allowed. Also, the IP address that is displayed when you select SAN > Server Properties is possibly incorrect. Workaround This is corrected by restoring the LAN connection and rebooting the appliance. Rebooting the appliance has no impact on the Fibre Channel operations of any switch or director. Only monitoring switch operations, logging events, and implementing configuration changes are interrupted. Setting HAFM appliance LAN to use DHCP is activated to wrong LAN When setting the IP configuration for the HAFM appliance using the LCD panel, setting DHCP configuration for LAN 1 causes LAN 2, not LAN 1, to be configured for DHCP. Similarly, setting DHCP configuration for LAN 2 causes LAN 1, not LAN 2, to be configured for DHCP. Workaround If you wish to configure LAN 1 for DHCP, select LAN 2 instead of LAN 1 at the start of the configuration procedure. If you wish to configure LAN 2 for DHCP, select LAN 1 instead of LAN 2 at the start of the configuration procedure. Event notification by e-mail or call home can be missing information under certain conditions Though very unlikely, it is possible that an Event Notification by e-mail or call home may be missing information normally contained in these messages. This occurs if a switch detects an event that requires a notification to be issued, but HAFM has not completed discovery of the switch. This discovery of a switch is usually completed within a few seconds, so it is unlikely, though not impossible, that an event occurs during this short span of time. Discovery of a switch occurs when it is added to HAFM for management, and when the Ethernet connection to a switch is broken and reestablished, such as when a switch's firmware is upgraded. 28

Workaround
The LAN connection must be restored. Stopping HAFM has no impact on the Fibre
Channel operations of any edge switch or director. Monitoring switch operations,
logging events, and implementing con
guration changes are interrupted only while
the LAN is not connected.
Effect of no LAN connection to HAFM appliance during boot up
If the HAFM appliance has no LAN connection while booting up, but it is connected
after booting up, the remote client sessions to the HAFM appliance are not allowed.
Also, the IP address that is displayed when you select
SAN > Server Properties
is
possibly incorrect.
Workaround
This is corrected by restoring the LAN connection and rebooting the appliance.
Rebooting the appliance has no impact on the Fibre Channel operations of any switch
or director. Only monitoring switch operations, logging events, and implementing
con
guration changes are interrupted.
Setting HAFM appliance LAN to use DHCP is activated to wrong LAN
When setting the IP con
guration for the HAFM appliance using the LCD panel,
setting DHCP con
guration for LAN 1 causes LAN 2, not LAN 1, to be con
gured for
DHCP. Similarly, setting DHCP con
guration for LAN 2 causes LAN 1, not LAN 2, to
be con
gured for DHCP.
Workaround
If you wish to con
gure LAN 1 for DHCP, select LAN 2 instead of LAN 1 at the start of
the con
guration procedure. If you wish to con
gure LAN 2 for DHCP, select LAN 1
instead of LAN 2 at the start of the con
guration procedure.
Event noti
cation by e-mail or call home can be missing information under

Though very unlikely, it is possible that an Event Noti
cation by e-mail or call home may
be missing information normally contained in these messages. This occurs if a switch
detects an event that requires a noti
cation to be issued, but HAFM has not completed
discovery of the switch. This discovery of a switch is usually completed within a few
seconds, so it is unlikely, though not impossible, that an event occurs during this short
span of time. Discovery of a switch occurs when it is added to HAFM for management,
and when the Ethernet connection to a switch is broken and reestablished, such as
when a switch’s
