Installing McDATA 4G b SAN Switch ﬁrmware

To ensure that the McDATA 4Gb SAN Switch ﬁrmware install results in a Non Disruptive

Code Load and A

ctivation (NDCLA), and does not require a hard reset, close all

instances of the McDATA Web Server embedded GUI except for the instance performing

the install. If m ore than one instance is open when the install completes, a hard reset is

required which disrupts all switch trafﬁc.

Managing McDATA 4Gb SAN Switch considerations

DO NOT use the Element Manager Fabric Binding feature on McDATA 4Gb SAN

Switches. Element Manager Fabric Binding does not synchronize with HAFM Fabric

Binding. If both Fabric Binding features are used, a disconnect can occur between the

Element Manager and HAFM.

Examples

• IfyouactivateanISLsetwhileaportsetisalreadyactive,theISLsettakesover

and vice versa. This is working as designed.

• If you activate Switch B inding using the Element M anag er, and then activate

Fabric Binding using HAFM, the McDATA 4Gb SAN Switch copies and appends

the Fabric Binding to the current Switch Binding security policy. This is working

as designed. However, if you then deactivate Fabric Binding using HAFM, it

only deactivates on legacy M-Series and McDATA switches. You must deactivate

thepolicyusingtheElementManagertodeactivateitontheMcDATA4Gb

SAN Switch.

If you also had Switch Binding activated a nd the learned Fabric Binding policy

is merged, Switch Binding becomes de activated. A security hole exists if you

do not realize this; however, it is apparent that this happens when you look at

the active policy. Activate the policy you created using the Element Manager

again to enable Switch Binding.

• If there is no Switch Binding activated in the Elem ent Manager and Fabric

Binding is activated using HAFM, Fabric Binding can be deactivated only by

using H AFM. This is working as designed.
