HP B-series Network Advisor Enterprise, Professional Plus, and Professional 11.1.2 Release Notes (5697-1433, December 2011-includes all 11.1.x versions)

Firmware download through SCP Server
If you use the Windows-based SCP Server, firmware download fails for the switches. HP recommends
that you use the Linux-based SCP Server.
DCFM to Network Advisor remote migration is not supported
Remote migration is not supported by Network Advisor. HP recommends that you first migrate from
DCFM 10.3.x / 10.4.x to another DCFM 10.3.x / 10.4.x server, and then migrate to Network
Advisor.
Privilege names
Privilege names are displayed in the Role Management dialog with SAN – prefixes. After migration
from an older version, new privilege names are displayed in the role Management dialog with
these prefixes.
Wrapper log files
The rollover of wrapper log files may cause the server running on Linux to crash. If this issue is
encountered, the user is required to terminate the dcmsvc process from the task manager and
restart the server from the Server Console.
Manually assigning hosts to users
If a custom AOR (Area of Responsibility) without any hosts included is manually assigned to a
defined user, and all hosts are displayed in the topology to that user. However, deleting or updating
hosts is not reflected in the topology for that user until the Client is restarted.
Moving DCB products form one fabric to another
If DCB products move from one fabric managed by Network Advisor to another managed fabric,
the VLAN Management dialog is not populated with the configuration for those products.
Configuring SSL
When configuring Network Advisor in SSL enable mode in the application configuration wizard,
ensure that both HTTP and HTTPS ports are free and available for Network Advisor. Currently the
application checks only if the HTTPS configured port is available and not the HTTP port.
Import may fail
A change in the driver version 3.0 parsing boot images before an import causes the import to fail
in Network Advisor 11.1.0 stating Invalid boot image code file. The issue is resolved
in Network Advisor 11.1.1, but users will see the same issue in the migrated server from Network
Advisor 11.1.0 to 11.1.2. As a workaround, remove boot image files having version numbers
greater than or equal to 3.0 from the repository and re-execute the import.
Port disable/enable operation may fail
The Port disable/enable operation on physical TE-Ports may fail in the following scenarios:
• Disabling the virtual FCoE ports of DCB switches of the corresponding physical TE-Ports through
the CLI/Web Tools
• Removing the FCoE device connected to the ports
DCB asset collection will fail if the trunks are configured for the TE-ports. Users will not get updates
for the DCB switch, such as port status, lag and trunk information. To resolve this issue, users should
delete the fabric and rediscover it from the discovery dialog.
