5.0.1 Release Notes

Open Issues in 5.0.1

Issue ID Description Affects Fixed
4989796 When you send a POST request to nmx/v1/support-packages with a tech-support bundle larger than 1 MB, the operation fails. 5.0.1-5.2.1
4964170 When you create a partition, the operation might fail with a BAD_PARAM error. To work around this issue, retry the operation until it is successful. 5.0.1-5.1.0
4786996 To use lifecycle management in NMC or BCM environments, you must edit the master node IP address in the configuration manager to match the cluster’s head node IP address. Use the kubectl edit cm -n netq-eth netq-master-node-ip command to edit the configuration. In the configuration file, change the data/master_node field to the cluster’s head node IP address. 5.0.0-5.0.1 5.1.0-5.3.0
4780773 The NetQ for NVLink Swagger UI might incorrectly display 500 status placeholder text in example responses. 5.0.0-5.1.0
4693161 In cluster and scale cluster deployments, the snapshot comparison feature may time out when comparing MAC addresses. 5.0.0-5.0.1 5.1.0-5.3.0
4689932, 4702436 Node reservation for NetQ is not supported in shared multi-node clusters. To work around this issue, deploy NetQ in a dedicated single-node or three-node cluster first, and then scale the deployment by adding nodes for other applications. 5.0.0-5.0.1 5.1.0-5.3.0
4687477 When you run a validation against a group of devices with specific labels, NetQ ignores any pre-configured filters. 5.0.0-5.3.0
4687241 The activity log in the UI might display multiple entries with “unknown” or “anonymous” usernames. 5.0.0-5.0.1 5.1.0-5.3.0
4683830 The Cable Validation Tool might fail to load in the NetQ UI. To work around this issue, log out of NetQ and then log back in. 5.0.0-5.0.1 5.1.0-5.3.0
4682275 NVLink cluster installations do not validate that each node has a unique hostname. If two nodes share a common hostname, NetQ does not flag the issue after the installation completes. 5.0.0-5.2.1
4681581 The netq bootstrap reset purge-db command might take up to 60 minutes to complete on Base Command Manager scale deployments. 5.0.0-5.3.0
4668341 When you a create an LDAP server configuration, the NetQ UI incorrectly allows you to modify the default server ports. Only the standard ports (389 for insecure and 636 for secure) are permitted. 5.0.0-5.0.1 5.1.0-5.3.0
4667571 NetQ might return inconsistent results when queries use the regular expression wildcard. 5.0.0-5.0.1 5.1.0-5.3.0
4637749 When the master node is down, the netq show status command might report an incorrect status. 5.0.0-5.0.1 5.1.0-5.3.0
4573427 The link health view utilization chart might display incorrect values for the top 5 links when multiple links share the same value. 5.0.0-5.0.1 5.1.0-5.3.0
4527529 When there is a high volume of concurrent API requests to NetQ, some requests may fail. 4.15.0-5.0.1 5.1.0-5.3.0
4399074 When connecting a switch to NMX-T or NMX-C through the service registration workflow, use either the IP address or the hostname. Using both creates duplicate registrations, and the operation does not fail as expected. 5.0.0-5.3.0
4389662 When a cluster installation fails a cluster VIP validation check, the installer generates an opta-support archive and prompts you to send it to NVIDIA support instead of prompting you to fix the initial error. 4.15.0-5.2.1
4122430 When the master node is unreachable, a worker node might report the output of netq show status as Not Installed instead of indicating that the cluster was degraded. 4.12.0-5.2.1
4100882, 4119697 When you attempt to export a file that is larger than 200MB, your browser might crash or otherwise prevent you from exporting the file. To work around this issue, use filters in the UI to decrease the size of the dataset that you intend to export. 4.12.0-4.15.1, 5.0.0-5.3.0
