Known Limitations and Problems
Table 4 contains information about the limitations and problems known to exist in this device driver release.
Table 4 Known Limitations and Problems
Description
Workaround
VMware ESX vSwitch is discovered as a VMware ESX server, when discovery task is forced against the child devices.
If discovery tasks are run against the child devices of VMware ESX vSwitch after they have been initially discovered, there is the possibility that the wrong driver will be assigned to the device.
Instead of running discovery tasks against VMware ESX vSwitches, re-run the module diagnostic tasks on the parent VMware ESX server devices.
Cisco Firewall Services Module (FWSM) series standalone or administration context devices: First discovery task fails after adding the device. However, the second discovery task will succeed.
Either re-run the task or assign the driver to the device.
Cisco ONS 15454 running OS versions 6.02.02, 7.02.02, and 7.02.03, supports Cisco ONS 15600 running OS version 7.02.03, even though Cisco ONS 15600 is omitted from the supported drivers list.
None.
