Problems with zoning

The following section states some possible issues and recommended solutions for zoning errors.

Using Fabric Manager or

Device Manager to manage

Cisco MDS9xx switches.

Install JRE 1.4 or greater, which includes Java Web Start

When the client application is

started on an HP-UX machine,

the exception

java.lang.OutOfMemoryE

rror: unable to create

new native thread

is

displayed in thread

main

.

The following two HP-UX 11.0 kernel parameters are set

too low for most Java applications. Edit the parameter

limits as described below.
max_thread_proc:
Increase the maximum number of threads allowed in

each process higher than the expected maximum

number of simultaneously active threads (for example,

1024). The maximum value is the value of nkthread.
nkthread:
Set the limit for the total number of kernel threads able

to run simultaneously in the system to a value greater

than

nproc

. The default is approximately twice that of

nproc

. The maximum is 30000.

The system reboots or is unable

to gather SNMP information.

Multiple SNMP calls are being sent to a device that

can't handle the constant requests for information.
Verify that the devices you are discovering are not being

discovered by another appliance. Discovering devices

using multiple appliances can result in errors.

A report failed to be generated

due to memory constraints.

Generate a fewer number of reports at one time.

Receiving error

Compatibility between

<TARGET VERSION> and

<CURRENT VERSION> is

unknown. Do you want

to continue?

Firmware files are included in the upgrade process, but

release rules are not. Since release rules are required

when sending another firmware version to a switch, this

error results. To fix this problem, add the latest firmware

file to the firmware library. This also adds the new

release rules and resolves the problem.

An error occurs when trying to

delete a nickname.

Once assigned, a nickname cannot be deleted.

The system reboots or is unable

to gather SNMP information.

Multiple SNMP calls are being sent to a device that

can’t handle the constant requests for information. To

resolve this issue, verify that the devices you are

discovering are not being discovered by another server.

Discovering devices using multiple servers can result in

errors.
