Solution
Closed defect summary
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Invalid zone name does not cause error message, and no enforcement of
64–character limit on cfg/zone name. Functional impact is zone is not
enabled.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Need additional information of EE (Encryption Engine) status for the entire
EG (Encryption Group) in a single command. Currently we have to invoke
cryptocfg --show -groupcfg
,
cryptocfg --show -groupmember
-all
, or
cryptocfg --show -localEE
on all nodes to know the overall
state of EG including EE state across the EG.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Disable auditing via:
Auditcfg
--disable
.
When auditing is on for security class, a race condition can occur in raslogd,
which leads to a switch panic or
hafailover
.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
During a
supportsave
,
Software VERIFY - Failed expression:
index < DP_TABLE_MAX_ENTRIES, file
message is seen.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Disable FICON XRC emulation.
Due to slow read track performance when XRC emulation is enabled, MVS
I/O errors are generated when an invalid selective reset frame is sent to the
controller, causing Abort Sequences later on.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Disable all zoning (allow all) - this would
avoid passing the frame up to be zone
checked.
RNID frame type field from the host is corrupted internally when the host is
connected over FCIP, and is rejected by the switch. This results in the switch
being unable to get FICON CHPID online to VSM (Virtual Tape Subsystem)
over an emulated or non-emulated VE tunnel. The E_Port between switches
functions correctly.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Disable FICON XRC emulation.
IFCCs encountered when processing Read Channel Extender Capabilities
with XRC Emulation (IPLing systems with SDM LPARs).
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Restore Master Key from recovery smart cards does not put EE Online when
all EEs in the EG were zeroized.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
You must remove trial licenses before installing permanent licenses for the
same features or switch disruption can occur. The fix will automatically
remove/replace the trial license before adding the permanent license,
avoiding any disruption.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Negative value in core file causes invalid memory access. The console reports
the detection of termination of the Web Linker process. Web Linker
automatically restarts, but user may see a disruption in GUI access to the
switch.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0

portshow fciptunnel all -c
adds the line with
16 0 unknown
Disable ----- 0s 0.00 0.00 0 0/0 0
.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Bad zone config error message is given, when ICL ports displayed in the
zone admin module are included in the TI zone while creating it, for an IM2
logical switch.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Start the rekey sessions for LUNs on
individual basis.
Rekey sessions supposed to be pending cannot be persisted when the EE
hosting node fails over. If HA Cluster failover occurs before keys are
successfully created for all LUNs under rekey, the user will have to restart the
rekey individually for those LUNs for which the rekey sessions could not be
automatically started.
