Interface Issues

This section describes the known browser interface and command line interface issues.

Incorrect Server Details Are Displayed When Servers Swap Management IP Addresses (6196399)

If the management IP addresses of two discovered servers are swapped, the detailed server information displayed for each of the servers with the swapped addresses will be the information for the other swapped server. For example, if server A and server B have their management IP addresses swapped, “show server A” will show server B's information and “show server B” will show server A's information.

Workaround: Delete both of the servers with swapped IP addresses and then rediscover them. This will result in any user supplied information about the server being lost.

Browser Interface Becomes Out of Sync if Back Button Is Used (6215298)

The browser interface uses frames that are synchronized. If you click the browser's Back button in one of the frames, the frames can get out of sync.

Workaround: Press F5 or refresh the page to synchronize the frames.

The Bottom Line of the Serial Console Message Is Not Shown in the Console Window (6308148)

The last line of the serial console launched from the N1 System Manager browser interface is not displayed in the serial console window.

Workaround: Press Enter or Return to display the last line.

Only SSHv1 Is Supported for Serial Console Access (6309107)

The applet used for serial console access from the Web Browser interface uses SSHv1 only for communication back to the N1 System Manager management server. This feature requires enabling SSHv1 for the N1 System Manager management server.

Workaround: If you do not want to enable SSHv1 and the serial console Web Browser interface, you can use the serial console feature from the n1sh command line interface.

Serial Console Feature Requires Sun Java^TM Plugin 1.4.2 or Later Installed (6315615)

To use the Serial Console feature from the Server Details page in the browser interface, the Sun Java Plugin 1.4.2 or later must be installed on the system where you are running the browser. Not all of the supported browsers for the N1 System Manager have this installed.
