Unable to complete or cancel VC Domain maintenance after enabling
Expanded VLAN Capacity in VC Domains

VCEM 7.1 is able to manage VC Domains with Expanded VLAN capacity (Extended Mapped
VLAN) enabled, but VCM firmware version 3.3x or later does not allow you to easily revert back
from Expanded VLAN capacity mode to Legacy capacity mode.

Before applying Expanded VLAN capacity to a VC Domain 3.3x or later during Maintenance
Mode, make sure the VC Domain Group that the VC Domain belongs to is running firmware mode
3.3x or higher (this is a VCEM rule). If you change a VC Domain 3.3x to Expanded VLAN Capacity
and the VC Domain Group firmware mode is lower than 3.3x, the Complete Maintenance Mode
operation will fail, because VCEM will detect an enabled feature (Expanded VLAN capacity) not
supported by the other VC Domains (with older firmware). The VC Domain will remain in
Maintenance Mode status and VCEM will not be able to complete or cancel the maintenance
operation. To complete or cancel the maintenance operation, you must first remove the VC Domain
with Expanded VLAN capacity from the Domain Group.

VCM shows an incorrect address for VCEM

When you log into the VCM while under VCEM control, the following message is displayed:

VC Domain locked by Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager [x.x.x.x]

The x.x.x.x in the message is an incorrect IP address for VCEM.

NOTE:

The incorrect IP address does not have any impact on VCEM management of VCM.

Leaving the incorrect IP address in place does not break any VCEM operations. The IP address is
only displayed to inform you that VCM is managed by VCEM from that IP address.

To correct the IP address in VCM, complete the following steps:

1.

Verify that the Windows host where VCEM is installed has its network adapters bound in the
correct order. The network adaptor handling communications with VCM should be first in the
