3.4.0 Matrix Server Release Notes

PolyServe Matrix Server Release Notes 10

4360 Management Console does not support admin passwords

ending in the characters “??”

If the admin password is changed to a string that ends with the

characters “??”, the PolyServe Management Console will not

allow a login using that password to succeed. The symptom is

that the Management Console will repeatedly prompt for the

password.

Workaround. Do not use a password that ends with “??”.

5306 Changed password must be exported

When you change the matrix password on the PolyServe

Management Console, the password is changed only on the

server to which you are connected. To change the password on

the other servers in the matrix, you will need to export the

configuration to those servers.

5519 SNMP dies on QLogic SANbox2 FC switches

In a matrix with a QLogic SANbox2 FibreChannel switch,

SNMP can die periodically. When this occurs, servers cannot be

fenced, and servers that have already been fenced cannot

unfence themselves.

To recover, go to Admin mode on the switch and then run the

hotreset command:

admin start

admin> hotreset

The hotreset command resets the switch. (Before the switch is

reset, all running applications save their FibreChannel state.

That information is then used by the applications when the

switch comes back up.)

If the matrix does not recover on its own after the switch is reset,

you may need to reboot the affected servers or restart Matrix

Server on them.
