Workaround: Do not bring up more than 512 ports. To ensure that the port indexes between 0x0

and 0xf behave correctly, follow these steps:

1. Issue the shut command for ports with indexes 0x200 to 0x20f.

2. Issue the shut command for the ports with indexes 0x0 to 0xf, followed by the no shut

command for the same port indexes.

Symptom: When you configure Cisco Traffic Analyzer to capture traffic on one or more interfaces

on a Windows platform, the configuration web page might not show that the interface has been

selected for traffic capture even though traffic capture on that interface is enabled.

Workaround: Check the logs to clarify that the correct interface has been selected.

• CSCsd21187

Symptom: If an iSNS client tries to register a portal separately after registering the network entity

and storage node object with the Cisco MDS iSNS server, the portal registration might fail.

Workaround: Register the portal at the same time as the network entity and storage node object

registration.

• CSCse31881

Symptom: If there are IPFC interfaces configured on an SSM, you might experience issues if you

downgrade from SAN-OS Release 3.x to Release 2.x.

Workaround: Before downgrading, remove the IPFC interface on the module and then recreate the

IPFC interface after the downgrade is complete.

• CSCsg19148

Symptom: Time zone changes that are executed on an MDS switch do not take effect on the 12-port,

24-port, and 48 port 1-Gbps/2-Gbps/4-Gbps Fibre Channel modules, and on the 4-port 10-Gbps

module. This issue occurs in SAN-OS Releases 3.0(1), 3.0(2), 3.0(2a), and 3.0(3).

Time zone changes that are executed on an MDS switch do not take effect on the 16-port or 32-port

1-Gbps/2-Gbps module, on the 4-port or 8-port Gigabit Ethernet IP services module, the MPS 14/2

module, and on the SSM. This issue occurs in SAN-OS Release 3.0(3).

This issue has no effect on functionality. However, debug messages and syslogs from the MDS

switching modules will have incorrect timestamps if the time zone is configured on an MDS switch.

Workaround: None.

• CSCsg19303

Symptom: Graceful shutdowns of ISLs are not supported for IVR traffic.

Workaround: Increase the fspf cost on the link before it is shut down, so that traffic will flow

through an alternate path.
