Caveats
CSCug67068
Symptom: On Cisco MDS 9148 and MDS 9134 switches, an attempt to overwrite a file fails with
the following error:
Permission denied
Condition: This issue occurs if a previous attempt to copy to a file with the same name failed.
Workaround: None.
CSCuh37423
Symptom: After changing the device alias configuration, the I/O Accelerator (IOA) flows remain
unchanged until the reactivation of the zone set.
Condition: This situation occurs during a device-alias add, delete, or rename operation.
Workaround: None.
CSCuh49283
Symptom: A zone member goes offline; a Registered State Change Notification (RSCN) is not sent
to zone members; the device-mapping entry, port world wide name (pWWN) associated to a device
alias is not displayed in the Dynamic Port VSAN Membership (DPVM) database; the show
running-configuration ivr command does not display the changes when a device alias member in
an Inter-VSAN routing zone (IVR zone) is renamed; the port world wide name (pWWN) associated
with the device alias is found dissociated in the port security database; a device alias member is not
found in the port security database.
Condition: This situation occurs when all or one of the conditions is met:
A user attempts to perform a device-alias operation in batch, such as renaming an offline device
alias to an existing online device alias or vice versa.
A device alias was renamed.
A device alias was deleted and an existing device alias is renamed to the deleted device alias in
the same commit.
A device alias, which is not configured, resides in the DPVM database and an online device is
renamed to the former.
The IVR distribute option is enabled and the device alias is in enhanced mode, and the changes
in a device alias is not updated to the IVR running configuration.
Workaround: Add the offline member to the device alias database, revert to the previous name if
you have renamed a device alias, and flap the ports that are connected to the affected zone member.

Symptom: Multiple port security members that are mapped to a switch WWN (sWWN) logging
point are not fully distributed to the peer switches. The following error appears after an Cisco
In-Service Software Downgrade (ISSD), followed by entering the port-security commit command:
Internal CLI error: Timer expired
Condition: This situation occurs after an ISSD from Cisco MDS NX-OS Release 5.2(8b) to 5.2.(1).
After creating and committing port-security entries that map multiple port security members to the
same sWWN, all entries are not distributed to the peer switches.
Workaround: None.
