Hi Uday,

Did you had WAFS enabled before moving to CIFSAO on this device?

If so, this is normal as this alarm is triggered when you move from WAFS to CIFS AO.

To clear it, you just need to restart your WAE as described as last step of migration from WAFS to CIFSAO: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/docs/app_ntwk_services/waas/waas/v417/configuration/guide/filesvr.html#wp1140094

Hi Uday,

This is a very minor bug , let me know the version of waas you are running. There is no need to worry as this will not impact any of your waas functionality.

Do let me know if you need more help on this. A reload will help, this bug appears when you disable and enable CIFS AO. Please upgrade to 4.2.3c, i guess you are running a older code.

Hi Abijit,

Thanks your reply!!

In fact i was going thru one of the cisco docus on net and found same answer what you have advised. I am using WAAS version 4.1.1c and the issue has started after disabling and enabling CIFS AO as you mentioned. I also reloaded the box immediately after receiving this alarm but still no luck

I may not go for changing the version now, however I m going to try reloading the box once again and will update you on the status.

Thanks,

Uday

Hi Uday,

This is more of a cosmetic bug, you can ignore the same and once you upgrade the version this will be gone. Even reload can set this alarm right.

Hope this helps.
