I suppose and important question would be, given a realistic pricing model, how many of you would, in principle, pay for a license, and how many of you would make do with whatever remains free? Adam.

Access denied to fabric graphs
by Robert Williams 14 Apr '13

14 Apr '13

Hi, Got an odd one here, suddenly we are getting access denied to all 6500/7600 fabric graphs on all devices: [cid:image001.png@01CE3697.EBD353E0] When you click on the * graph you get: [cid:image002.png@01CE3697.EBD353E0] From the URL: http://<servername>/graphs/to=1365669262/device=43/mod=1/chan=0/type=c6kxbar_util/from=1365582862/<http://%3cservername%3e/graphs/to=1365669262/device=43/mod=1/chan=0/type=c6kxbar_util/from=1365582862/> We auto SVN update, so I can’t be certain exactly when this broke, but I’m pretty sure it was ok a few days ago. I’m logged in as “admin” and have never changed (or even really looked at) the permissions page, but here is a screenshot in case I’ve failed to add something I’m meant to: [cid:image003.png@01CE3698.81307AD0] Any assistance much appreciated :) Cheers!
