1.6.2 Unable to Change Node View to Network View
Symptom When activating a large, multinode BLSR from Software Release 3.2 to Software Release 3.3,
some of the nodes appear grayed out. Logging into the new CTC, the user is unable to change node view
to network view on any and all nodes, from any workstation. This is accompanied by an “Exception
occurred during event dispatching: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError” in the java window.

Possible Problem Solution
Loss of association
between browser and
Help files.
When the CTC software and Netscape are installed, the Help files are
associated with Netscape by default. When you remove Netscape, the Help
files are not automatically associated with Internet Explorer as the default
browser.
Set Internet Explorer as the default browser so that CTC will associate the
Help files to the correct browser.
See the “Set Internet Explorer as the Default Browser for CTC” procedure
on page 1-52 to associate the CTC Help files to the correct browser.
