Cisco Nexus 5000 Series and Cisco Nexus 2000 Series Release Notes, for Cisco NX-OS Release 5.0(2)N1(1) and NX-OS Release 5.0(2)N2(1)
OL-22747-02
Caveats
Symptom: With a san port channel as the source and ethernet interface as the destination, removing
the channel-group config from the san port channel member causes monitor session to go to error
state.
Workaround: Unconfigure and reconfigure the monitor session.
• CSCtb53820
Symptom: After save and reload with a monitor session configuration where source is a vsan and
destination is an fc port, the monitor session goes to error state.
Workaround: Unconfigure and reconfigure the monitor session.
• CSCtc04213
Symptom: Vlan related configurations do not get applied on a range of interfaces. This issue may
occur when you try to configure a VLAN configuration on a range of interfaces in a way that the
number of interfaces being configured at a time is greater than 192. As a result, even though the
VLAN configuration command returns with no errors on the console, the VLANs do not get applied
to the interfaces. You can confirm this by running the cli, show system internal ethpm info
interface one of affected
Workaround: Select a smaller range of interfaces to apply the VLAN configuration to.
• CSCsz82199
Symptom: You cannot enable std.pause on a port channel interface connected between two Cisco
Nexus 5000 Series switches. Enable std.pause between two Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switches and
configure std.pause in the hardware.
Workaround: None
• CSCsv39939
Symptom: Incorrect values are displayed for interface capabilities for ports for Cisco Nexus 2000
Series Fabric extenders connected to a Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switch. In particular, the number of
input and output queues for the ports are displayed as zero instead of two.
Workaround: This is a display issue and does not impact functionality.
• CSCsz81365
Symptom: SPAN session should stop reflecting packets as soon as mapping is removed.
Workaround: None.
• CSCta04383
Symptom: When you install a new image from one of two vPC switches, the vPC switch gets
upgraded. Also, each of the connected Fabric Extenders update their firmware with the new version,
but continue to run the current version and stay connected to the other vPC switch. When you reload
the upgraded switch, but revert back to the older version of software on the switch, both the vPC
switches and all the Fabric Extenders run the older version of software. However, the Fabric
Extenders have the more recent version of software in the firmware. When the Fabric Extenders
reload there is loss of connectivity with the hosts.
Workaround: Reinstall the older version of software from either of the two switches while the
Fabric Extenders are connected to that switch.
• CSCsx35870
Symptom: The CLI times out when a large number of VLANs are created and deleted followed by
PVLAN creation and deletion. The system indicates that the Ethernet Port Manager (ethpm) has
timed out to communicate with the SPAN manager or PVLAN manager. As a result, some of the
PVLAN interfaces are error disabled.
