Cisco MDS 9000 Family Release Notes for Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 3.1(3a)
OL-12208-06
Caveats
• ICSCsi77055
Symptom: An MDS switch that provides IVR routing on a local VSAN may not be able to export
new devices via IVR if there are multiple IVR routers in the local VSAN or if one IVR router
contains stale entries for a device. When an IVR router has stale information, it will be out of sync
with the other IVR routers. Because IVR routers work in sync, then IVR cannot export any new
devices.
Workaround: This problem is resolved.
• CSCsj07363
Symptom: An SNMP Get-Next Request for the MIB object
ip.ipAddrTable.ipAddrEntry.ipAdEntIfIndex on an MDS 9000 switch resolves by asking ifIndex
for a loopback address. Because there is no hardware (ifIndex) for a loopback address, the ifIndex
reply for this interface is skipped and the next possible instance of the object, which is
IP-MIB::ipAdEntNetMask, is returned.
Workaround: This issue is resolved.
• CSCsj26584
Symptom: When Microsoft Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (MSCHAP) is enabled,
NAS-IP is not sent. When Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) is used, NAS-IP is sent. PAP is
the default authentication protocol.
Workaround: This issue is resolved.
• CSCsi79423
Symptom: If you disable error or discard messages in Performance Manager via the
server.properties file, you may see the following error in the FMServer.log file:
WARNING 2007/05/07 14:54:26 PM 10.62.40.75 error: java.io.EOFException
java.io.EOFException

In addition, a file whose filename is a WWN will be erroneously created in the Performance
Manager database.
Workaround: This issue is resolved.
• CSCsi87114
Symptom: When you enter the show fcip tape-session command, the switch displays the outputs
of the first ten sessions, but additional session outputs are needed.
Workaround: This issue is resolved.
• CSCsi98091
Symptom: If you attempt to examine the logging information of an FCIP tunnel that has write
acceleration enabled, you might notice that some of the logs do not contain the correct debugging
information. The logging information can be used to debug possible error conditions in an FCIP
tunnel.
Workaround: This issue is resolved.
