Setting an alert rule to ipmipet sometimes does not work.

There is no impact to the InfiniBand fabric.

Workaround: After setting the alert rule to ipmipet, set the level to disable, and then set the level to the desired value.

BridgeX reset maximizes symbol error counter.

The setgwinstance, setgwsl, and setgwsystemname commands reset the BridgeX chip, causing symbol errors to maximize.

Workaround: Follow the procedure described in Symbol Errors on Internal Ports.

IP addresses within the Subnet Manager nodes file does not match those assigned by DHCP.

By default, the DHCP server is not assured to assign a consistent IP address to a Subnet Manager node upon reboot.

Workaround: Manually configure the DHCP server to assign a specific and unique IP address to each Subnet Manager node.

No way to set Fabric Monitor console timeout.

The Fabric Monitor will timeout after 15 minutes of idle time.

Workaround: You must login to the web interface and launch the Fabric Monitor again.

BridgeX ports indicate random errors in Fabric Monitor.

Powering on the gateway randomly displays these errors at BridgeX ports BX_0 and BX_1:

• Peer RcvErrors

• Peer VL15Dropped

• XmtDiscards

There is no workaround at this time.

Fabric Monitor does not support Internet Explorer.

Though the Oracle ILOM web interface supports Internet Explorer, the Fabric Monitor does not.

Workaround: Use Mozilla Firefox 3.0 or 3.6.

15747583

Oracle ILOM web interface not compatible with Mozilla Firefox 6.0.

Using the Mozilla Firefox 6.0 browser, only navigational control is possible with the Oracle ILOM web interface. No informational output is displayed.

Workaround: Use Mozilla Firefox 3.0 or 3.6.

smpartition start command gives unclear message if the Subnet Manager is disabled.

If the Subnet Manager is disabled before starting a partition configuration session using the smpartition start command, confusing messages are displayed upon issuing the command.

Workaround: Ensure that the Subnet Manager is enabled before starting a partition configuration session.

15747967

createvnic command should handle GUIDs with 0x prefix correctly.

GUIDs can be displayed as 0021280001a1623a, 00:21:28:00:01:a1:62:3a, or 0x0021280001a1623a. The latter version is not recognized by the createvnic command.

Workaround: Truncate the 0x prefix of the GUID for the createvnic command.

15750278

createvlan command does not support both hex and decimal P_Key value input.

The construct of the P_Key and its membership bit requires the value to be in hexadecimal. Providing and displaying the P_Key in decimal would complicate identifying the state of the membership bit.

There is no workaround.

15750534

--clear option of setgwethport command does not restore default parameters.

From the command usage, the --clear option of the setgwethport command should restore to default parameters. This situation does not happen.

Workaround: Use the -clear option.

15755116

checkguidfilesftree is displayed with the help all command, but is not supported.

Using the help all command within the Oracle ILOM /SYS/Fabric_Mgmt target displays the checkguidfilesftree command. This command has been deprecated and is not available.

15755133

fdconfig command is unavailable from the /SYS/Fabric_Mgmt target.

The fdconfig command is required for configuring the FabricMIB and should be available from the Oracle ILOM /SYS/Fabric_Mgmt target. The command is not available.

Workaround: Log in as the root user, where the fdconfig command is available.

15755727

Need tool to display InfiniBand topology with physical InfiniBand entities.

At present, no command provides the relationship of InfiniBand fabric GUIDs, LIDs, and IB ports to each other in a simplified manner.

Workaround: Use the ibnetdiscover command.

15756465

Usage of deletevnic command is wrong.

The usage output of the deletevnic command indicates that connectors 0A-ETH and 1A-ETH are supported. They are not.

15758329

Stopping or starting the envd daemon initiates a segmentation fault for the FabricMIB.

Stopping or starting the environment daemon on a gateway running as a fabric manager or monitored by a fabric manager changes the FabricMIB configuration due to the new status of that fabric element. Should an snmpwalk of the FabricMIB be issued at the same time the FabricMIB library reloads the updated configuration, internal file pointers might be mishandled, initiating a segmentation fault.

There is no workaround at this time.

15758406

Fabric Monitor might fail to load.

During a firmware upgrade or downgrade, certain symbolic links might not be created or become lost. Consequently, the Fabric Monitor will fail to load when requested.

Workaround: Reperform the upgrade or downgrade, using the -force option.

15761792

BridgeX manager dies with a base port id collision detected error message.

When two or more gateways within the InfiniBand fabric have adjacent gateway instance numbers (for example 16 and 17), and the gateway with the lower instance number (16) has more than one LAG enabled, there is a port ID collision between the two gateways.

Workaround: Configure all gateways to have even instance numbers (2, 4, 6, ...) with the setgwinstance command.

15819653

Gateway hard hangs after reboot.

On rare occurrence when rebooting the gateway, the gateway might experience a hard hang. The last entry in the system log is:

kernel: mlx_bx_core 0000:05:00.0: go bit not cleared

Workaround: Power cycle the gateway by removing both power cords from the power supplies, and then reattaching them.
