Description: After the upgrade from UFM-SDN Appliance v4.12.0 GA to UFM-SDN Appliance v4.12.1 FUR, the network fast recovery path in opensm.conf is not automatically updated and remains with a null value (fast_recovery_conf_file (null)) |
Workaround: If you wish to enable the network fast recovery feature in UFM, make sure to set the appropriate path for the current fast recovery configuration file (/opt/ufm/files/conf/opensm/fast_recovery.conf) in the opensm.conf file located at conf/opensm, before starting UFM. |

Description: Upgrading UFM-SDN Appliance from versions 4.7.0, 4.8.0 and 4.9.0 results in cleanup of UFM-SDN Appliance historical telemetry database (due to schema change). This means that the new telemetry data will be stored based on the new schema. |
Workaround: To preserve the historical telemetry database data while upgrading from UFM-SDN appliance version 4.7.0, 4.8.0 and 4.9.0, perform the upgrade in two phases. First, upgrade to UFM-SDN v4.10.0, and then upgrade to the latest UFM version (UFM-SDN appliance 4.11.0 or newer). It is important to note that the upgrade process may take longer depending on the size of the historical telemetry database. |

Description: When upgrading from software version 4.1.x or older to 4.2.x or later, in an intermediary step, where the standby UFM appliance is upgraded and the master UFM appliance is not, some CLI commands from the master will not be operational. This happens because, in that moment, the standby appliance is in a higher SSH security level. |
