Bias-Free Language
The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product. Learn more about how Cisco is using Inclusive Language.
The Cisco WAE Coordinated Maintenance application simplifies and automates the process of managing controlled network outages by helping you determine optimal times for performing maintenance events. The application leverages Cisco WAE optimization and prediction capabilities to minimize or eliminate the impact of network changes.
The only change in this release is that the application is supported on the Cisco WAE 6.3.2 and later platforms.
Note Cisco WAE Coordinated Maintenance 1.1 is required for the 6.2.4 and later platforms where the first decimal is a “2.”
Known Limitations
This section describes the limitations and restrictions for the Cisco WAE Coordinated Maintenance application. Note that platform-related issues could also impact the application. For information on open bugs and limitations on the Cisco WAE platform and other Cisco WAE applications, see the related Cisco WAE Release Notes on Cisco.com.
All users have equal privileges. Therefore, it is important to be considerate and cautious when making changes to any Settings page.
The only type of event represented is the planned outage event. For example, representations of permanent moves, additions, and deletions of network objects are not supported.
Internally time is stored in UTC, and users can set the standard local time zone. However, the application does not support automatic Daylight Saving Time adjustments.
Events and blackout windows are limited to 24 hours. The workaround is to create multiple sequential events and blackout windows.
If you set the test operator to a value that does not support the test objective, the results are misleading. The workaround is to understand the test objective and set the operator accordingly.
You cannot stop custom tests that are running. If you click Stop on an evaluation that contains custom tests, those tests continue to run in the background.
Using the Cisco Bug Search Tool
You can use the Cisco Bug Search Tool to search for a specific bug or to search for all bugs in a release.
Step 2 Enter your registered Cisco.com username and password, and then click Log In. The Bug Search page opens.
Note If you do not have a Cisco.com username and password, you can register for them.
Step 3 Use any of these options to search for bugs, and then press Enter (Return) to initiate the search:
To search for a specific bug, enter the bug ID in the Search For field.
To search for bugs based on specific criteria, enter search criteria in the Search For field, such as a problem description, a feature, or a product name.
To search for bugs based on products, enter or select the product from the Product list. For example, if you enter “WAE,” you have several options from which to choose.
To search for bugs based on releases, in the Releases list select whether to search for bugs affecting a specific release, bugs that were fixed in a specific release, or both. Then enter one or more release numbers.
Step 4 When the search results are displayed, use the filter tools to narrow the results. You can filter the bugs by status, severity, and so on.
To export the results to a spreadsheet, click Export Results to Excel.
