While AppStorManager is restarting, users are not able to access the management server. The
AppStorManager service must be running for the management server to monitor elements.
“CIM_ERR_FAILED” Message
If you are in a McDATA environment where the EFC Manager Service Processor is managing
multiple switches, it is possible that the management server will send SWAPI requests faster than
the EFC Manager Service Processor can handle them. The management server may detect this as a
failed connection and take corrective action. When this happens, you are shown a
“CIM_ERR_FAILED” message whenever the management server tried to access the McDATA
switches and directors.
The management server then attempts to reconnect to the EFCM by creating a new SWAPI
connection. EFCM versions 8.x and later have five SWAPI connections available. EFCM versions
7.1.3 and later but before version 8.x have three SWAPI connections available. If the
management server reconnects successfully, a reconnect event is generated and no further action is
necessary.
If the management server cannot reconnect to the EFCM, another event is generated with a severity
of major. If this happens, any operation the management server is performing (Discovery Data
Collection/Get Details) involving switches on that EFCM fails.
To prevent the “CIM_ERR_FAILED” messages, increase the delay between the management server’s
SWAPI calls to EFCM, as described in the following steps:
