upgrade from Fabric OS 6.2.0g to 6.3.0 causes the switch to go Faulty 21.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
With 1606 Extension SAN Switch or Multiprotocol Extension Blade, FCIP
configuration cannot be restored to default setting by using
configdefault
,
even after chassis reboot.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Issuing

Telnet banner and switchname are not consistent after a new switchname is
defined without doing multiple

commands. Can also occur
after a standby CP is replaced where the new CP hosts file does not get
synchronized with active CP without two
hafailover

Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
In a rare occurrence, HA synchronization is lost after a switch with trunk
ports panics and manual reboot is needed to recover, due to race condition
with trunk ports dropping Exchange Fabric Parameter (EFP) response.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
On HP StorageWorks DC SAN or DC04 Director, SwFCPortTxType MIB
does not report the type of CoreBlade's ICL port correctly. Reports as
swFCPortTxType.385 unknown(1).
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Byte Streaming support on 400 multiprotocol router/multiprotocol router
blade does not work with third-party optimizers.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Reduce the number of IT configuration
(target containers with initiators) to 200.
If the ITL nexus in tape (target containers with initiator) to handle multiplex/
multistream environment is greater than 200, decreased performance is seen
for some containers.

SAN Backbone director.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
The

command did not remove
ffdc
files. Continued to get
ffdc
files warning. The file warning message persisted until a second
supportsave
was issued.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Peak data rate is reported as 4096 MB/sec for 2 Gb/s port, which is not
possible.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
In multiprotocol extension blade face plate image in Web Tools Switch View,
10GE ports should be renamed as XGE ports.
