    Hi,

    Do you get the same error if you remove and re-add the switches to the SMI-S agent?

    Confirm the switch firmware is supported as 120.11 only supports up to 6.4.x http://www.brocade.com/downloads/documents/support_plans/SMIAGENT/120.11.0/smiagent120.11.0_releasenotes_v1.0.pdf

    Brocade stopped developing the Standalone SMI agent (this supports up to 6.4.x firmware) the latest version of this agent comes as an Integrated Agent as part of Connectrix Manager Converged Network (CMCNE) or Brocade Network Advisor (BNA) and supports for later firmware’s will be added to this agent.

    https://support.emc.com/products/23304_CMCNE please note the full version of CMCNE requires a license. But CMCNE can be installed and setup to run without a license for the Integrated SMI Agent. When asked to Choose the appropriate edition to install Select the SMI Agent only option this way no license is required.

    If the swtiches / firmware are still supported at 120.11 please open an SR with support to have a look at the SMI-S logs.

    Collecting Support Information –

    a) Launch the Brocade SMI Agent Configuration Tool.

    b) Click Collect Information in the menu tree. The content pane displays the current path for the zip file.

    c) To change the path of the zip file, type a new path or click Select Folder to browse for the location.

    d)  Click Apply.

    The zip file would contain the following files

    provider.xml

    jserver.properties

    SMIAgentconfig.xml

    cimom.properties

    SystemInfo.txt

    CIMOM and provider log files (test0.log - test 20.log)

    Regards

    Conor

    @ConorLawlor​ Hello.  Is Brocade SMI Agent only or Brocade SMI Agent Tool still available for end-users.  We need SMI Agent Version "120.11.0" or any other version, but as a separate package. I understand it comes bundled with CMCNE/BNA/SANnav etc.  Thanks
