Scott & Santosh,
I wholeheartedly agree wit you..... Get thee to 6.0.2
However, this fix is not incorporated in the 6.0.2 release !
 
If a smartset is created for example with the rule: isRouters=True and there
are devices in the newly created smartset with different community names the
browser will hang and cause select error 9 messages to occur in the
nv6000.log. There has been an efix created for this that will fix the
problem with the xnmbroswer hang. The apar number for this is IY15764.

SOLUTION # 112150

Folks, I know you hear this all the time but it bears repeating.
 
UPGRADE TO THE CURRENT VERSION!
 
I am interested in hearing why folks are not running v6.02. There is no good
reason that I know of to NOT upgrade. If you are on version 6 already, the
upgrade is free. (Isn't free upgrade from v5.1 also?)
 
The point is, you are doing yourself, your company, and your users a
disservice. You are making your life more difficult and limiting the
functionality, flexibility and resilience of your systems management
platform. To coin a phrase some vendor is using now "the network IS the
product"
 
Make the boss buy you a test box, get the new version shipped and get
upgraded! It doesn't hurt! You won't get a rash! The interest rate is well
below prime! Its endorsed by the ASPCA, NRA, NIH and beautiful
spokes-super-models-persons and super-star athletes everywhere! UPGRADE
UPGRADE UPGRADE!
 
===> This has been a public service announcement designed to save James and
Leslies sanity. Thank you.
