OL-21012-01
Caveats
Symptom: On certain hardware, certain Cisco MDS 9000 Series features and applications do not
work. These include IVR, IOA, DMM, SME, fcflow, and SPAN.
The following devices with hardware revision 1.5 are affected by this issue:
– DS-X9248-96K9, 48-port 8-Gbps Fibre Channel Switching Module
– DS-X9248-48K9, 4/44-port host-optimized 8-Gbps Fibre Channel Switching Module
– DS-X9224-96K9, 24-port 8-Gbps Fibre Channel Switching Module
The following devices with hardware revision 1.0 are affected by this issue:
– DS-X9304-18K9, 18/4-Port Multiservice Module (MSM-18/4)
For this module, the affected version is 73-14372-01A0 hardware version 1.0 (due to the new
73-number)
– DS-C9222i-K9, Cisco MDS 9222i Multilayer Fabric Switch
For this switch, the affected version is 73-14373-01A0 hardware version 1.0 (due to the new
73-number)
For the DS-X9248-96K9, DS-X9248-48K9 and DS-X9224-96K9 modules, the output of the show
module command indicates whether or not the device is affected.

In the preceding output, the device is hardware revision 1.0 and therefore not affected.
For the DS-X9304-18K9 and the DS-C9222i-K9, the show module command might indicate
hardware version 1.0 due to new part numbers; however the show sprom module command shows
the affected parts.

Part Revision : A0
Workaround: Upgrade to software release that has the fix for this issue.
– After performing a software upgrade to a Cisco NX-OS release that contains a fix for this issue,
it may be necessary to enter the shut command followed by the no shut command on the
affected host ports to regain connectivity.
