If a node fails after a cluster has been configured, but before all the links have been brought up, the Sun Management Center console and Fabric Details windows might freeze.
Workaround: If a node fails while you are creating a partition and the Cancel button on the Add Node dialog box does not work, perform the following steps:
To stop the fabric, use the command stopfabric with the -f option.
# /opt/SUNWwcfm/stopfabric -f fabric-name |
Restart the stopped fabric:
# /opt/SUNWwcfm/startfabric fabric-name |
Resume managing the fabric from the Sun Management Center console.
