Cisco MDS 9000 Family Release Notes for Cisco MDS NX-OS Release 5.2(6)
OL-27554-01
Caveats
Workaround: Enter the following supervisor commands on the problematic FCR peer, which will
trigger this FCR peer to resync with the rest of the fabric, and force it to come out of the error state:
switch# test fc-redirect config sync-with-fabric
switch# test fc-redirect config sync-with-fabric all-peers
If more than one peer is affected by this issue, then additional steps are needed. If the application
flows do not come online, then the application CLI commands need to be checked to verify that the
flows did not get deleted. If they did, then the flows need to be recreated again through the
application CLI command s or Cisco DCNM-SAN interface.
