Release Considerations
The following table lists the latest compatible releases for the products shown:
Product Release Table
Use the following instructions to load the MDP patch:
1) Log on to the MDP server.
2) Download (copy or ftp) the MDP patch file (P096_01.tar) to the MDP
server.
3) Stop any MDP processing by typing:
/iws/mdp/mdpadm shutdown
4) As root user, extract the fix from the tar file:
tar -xvfp P096_01.tar
The new executables will be propagated to the correct directories.
5) Restart MDP processing by typing:
/iws/mdp/mdpadm restart
The MDP BDF output formats have changed in the MDP R9.6 release. See
the Vector Data Collection System User Guide (NTP-241-9501-320) for
details.

Magellan Vector 2.0 Release Notes, Issue 1.9.1
The Vector Release 2.0.X switch does not support ARP Server functionality.
In cases where customers are running ARPSERVER on Vector Release 1.1,
they need to migrate their ARPSERVER configuration onto a host before or
during the upgrade to a Vector 2.0.X network.
Only one ESI module per switch is supported in this release.
The Partial Packet Policing function of the Enhanced Traffic Management
Feature requires the revision J fabric (PEC NTET51AD).
To support a mixed i960CF/HA SCP configuration, you must upgrade the
Vector Switching System (VSS) Software to at least Vector Release 2.0.2. In
the mixed i960CF/HA SCP configuration, each fabric pair must be
configured either with two i960CF SCPs or two i960HA SCPs. As shown in
following figure, the i960CF SCP cannot coexist on the same fabric pair as
the i960HA SCP.
Switch configuration with both i960CF and i960HA processors
The “configuration VCC modify” command is removed in Vector Release
2.0.4 and higher. In order to modify an UPC contract, you must delete the PVC
or PVP and then reprovision the PVC or the PVP with the new UPC contract.
Hot-Swapping (plugging IN and OUT on in-active fabric) the SCP CF
processor card (NTET11AA or ACCA0130-2001 SCP-ASXCF Rev. K/L/M)
can cause permanent damage to the board. The work-around is to remove the
fabric with the SCP card. This problem is resolved in the SCP HA processor
card (that is, NTET11AC).
The ESI card takes 125 seconds to sync to the source. Bellcore standards
indicate that a Stratum 3 clock must lock within 100 seconds.

Magellan Vector 2.0 Release Note, Issue 1.9.1
Customers who are running 2.0.3, 2.0.4 or 2.0.7 and before with pmp or
backplane throughpaths configured must use the upgrade and installation
procedure described in Appendix A.
New firmware for the External Synchronization Card has been introduced
which improves the locking characteristics to the BITS timing source. A
version 9 listed under configuration esi show will be displayed for ESI cards
containing the new updated firmware.
Fast SPVC re-routing in the event of a cable failure has been introduced for
OC3 and J2 Netmods.
The reset command introduced in Vector Release VSS2.0.4 under operation
linkmod has been replaced in VSS2.0.8 with the command operation netmod
reset. This VMI command provides the ability re-initialize the specified
netmod. Note: Invoking this command causes service disruptions to all ports
on the affected netmod.
Users who wish to install or migrate to MDP version 10.3.1 should refer to the
Magellan Data Provider User Guide, NTP 241-6001-309 for installation and
operation instructions. MDP 10.3.1 (version MDP103Pax) requires the Solaris
operating system and application of patch 10.3-14.
