Management application is registered as a syslog recipient it may not receive any messages.

The Management application successfully registers itself as syslog recipient on the wireless controller; however, it is non-primary recipient and logging is disabled on device.

Zoning troubleshooting

The following section states some possible issues and recommended solutions for zoning errors.

Problem	Resolution
Cannot perform zoning on a new switch.	You must use telnet (or the Product Type and Access tab in the Add Properties dialog box)
	to change the default password on the new switch before you can use the Management
	application to perform zoning.

When configuring a large zone configuration a switch displays offline during discovery.

If a large zone configuration is configured in a fabric, switches may temporarily display as being offline during discovery.

Wait for the next discovery cycle and click the Refresh button on the toolbar.

When activating a large zone configuration on a two-switch fabric on UNIX platforms, an error message displays stating “Failed to perform the requested zoning action: Failed to zone due to exception.”

Although the error message states that the requested zoning action failed, the zone configuration will be correctly activated. Wait for the next zoning polling to occur.

This issue only occurs on UNIX systems.

Zoning activation message displays for a long time, but zone configuration is not activated.

Telnet zoning can take a long time. To improve speed, open the Discover Setup dialog box (Discover > Setup) and add the IP address for the device to the Selected Individual Addresses list.

Out of memory error caused by running a zoning report for a large zone configuration (1 MB) in a medium-sized SAN due to a third party tool.

You must increase the client memory allocation by completing “Configuring memory allocation settings” on page 166.
