Not trying to create FUD or anything here, long time Cisco customer, just thought folks should know. We've had two switches in the last 6 weeks with this issue. One we've had in service since 2008 (and which started having SF errors in March but did...

the posts that talked about this were over a year old. I've tried FM Server 5.0.4 and it still barks at me about incompatible version of Windows (but crappy old Vista is in the list.) The brain wizards here are going to make us all standardize on a...

I'm doing a little pre SAN-OS upgrade work (and changing out my FM Server backend DB from Postgres to Oracle 10g) and I see that the clone option is back (finally) in 3.3.(4b) fabric manager.We've run newer versions of Fabric Manager before, ran 3.1....

Do you have anything like Nagios or Zabbix. The Cisco MIB's are huge and have all kinds of data you can access SNMP. We have a licesed DCNM server but for graphs on utilization our Zabbix instance does a nice job (and it's open source.)

I thought Fabric Manager was depricated. They want people to use DCNM now (which I'm running on 64Bit Windows 2008 so I'm guessing the client will work in Windows 7.)As far as which mib works for MDS switches there is a lot of overlap with MDS and t...

Great!! I'm not too worried about the Catalyst switches, I need it for the MDS and Nexus switches. Thanks.

Karim,this may be completely off the mark but we've had two 9513's in the last 6 weeks that we've had to completely replace because of Xbar Super frame errors. The symptom is odd slowness between hosts and storage. You may want to run this command ...

Zubair,I can tell you what I know. I have some 9222i's but I have not put them into service but I do have a pair of 9216 (same basic setup though Gen 1) and they only have one supervisor so code updates are disruptive because the switch has to reboot...
