CIM_ERR_FAILED When Trying to Activate a Zone Set Using McDATA SWAPI
When the user tries to activate a zone set using McDATA SWAPI, the operation may return
CIM_ERR_FAILED with one of the following detailed messages:
Cannot activate zone set. SWAPI Handle is not valid for fabric
Cannot activate zone set. Active zone set information is out of date for
fabric
There is no active SWAPI connection for fabric
Fabric is not in the cache
These error messages indicate that the SWAPI connection to the EFCM managing the fabric is no
longer valid, or the active zone information was changed on the fabric without using the
management server. The management server does not activate a zone set under these conditions.
(Discovery from HP SE only) To fix this problem, use the Test button on the discovery screen to check
the status of the SWAPI connection. If necessary, re-discover the EFCM to re-establish the SWAPI
connection.
Once the connection is working, the provisioning operation should succeed. If it continues to fail
because the active zone set information is out of date, do a Get Details for this element to update
the zoning information.
SNMP Setting Through a Proxy
This SNMP setting through a proxy does not let you manage or access information about zones,
zone sets or zone aliases.
This option is required if you want to discover McDATA or Connectrix switches through a proxy
using the SNMP provider. You can use this option with EMC Connectrix™ Manager and Enterprise
Fabric Connectivity (EFC) Manager to contact the switch.
Step 1 - Verify the Discovery Setting for Switches Is Set to SNMP
By default the discovery settings for McDATA and Connectrix switches is set to SNMP. If you believe
it has been changed to SWAPI, you can perform the following steps to change it back to SNMP.
1. Click Options > Storage Essentials > Manage Product Health. Then, click Advanced
in the Disk Space tree.
2. Click Show Default Properties at the bottom of the page.
