Solution
Closed defect summary
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Remove the condition / cause of the
excessive CRC errors (that is, replace
cable or SFP).
Data encryptio, name server fails to show the existence of a specific virtual
initiator. As a result of an external FC port experiencing an excessive number
of encoding CRC errors, the internal ports are faulted incorrectly by switch
firmware, hence a data encryption virtual initiator associated with the internal
port fails to appear in name server.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Use CLI (or ECFM for non-TI/Redirect
zones) in IM2/IM3.
Unexpected reboot and failover when attempting to push zone DB from
DCFM in IM2/IM3 fabrics.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
In FICON environment, NSD panic while running IRNDUP to 4/256 SAN
director due to missing interrupt (IFCC).
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Do not configure LUNs for encryption,
using the
-newLUN
option if the LUN
size is greater than 2TB.
A LUN sized greater than 2TB cannot be configured for encryption with the
-newLUN
option.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
In FICON environment, Web Tools is out of sync with CLIl; it does not show
correct port status when FMS mode is enabled and port is moved between
different logical switches from the DCFM.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
In Web Tools, Name server tab is unable to export name server data base
from FCR-configured switch. After opening the name server tab and
performing export the tables, export fails with an error message
For Input
String N/A
.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Do not connect target devices to BES
directly; connect them to an L2 switch.
Data Encryption, tape containers get stuck in login busy state after performing
ISL disruption tests. Performing HA failover by toggling ISL between HA cluster
members can cause containers to be not hosted with reason
login busy
.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Use
portdisable/enable
.
In AG mode, N_Port failover results in F_Ports with attached hosts getting
stuck as G_Port. F_Ports get stuck as G_Ports after AG N_Port failover. This
occurs when there is a change in the base address for the N_Port due to
failover, or when there is no wwn-area mapping for few devices and due to
the login sequence of these devices, the PIDS assigned conflicted with the
already allocated PID to another device, resulting in the F_Ports getting stuck
as G_Ports.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
In FICON environment, when CHPs are very busy, CUP may report many
IFCCs.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
When running 200 ms delay and 1% packet loss after four days of run time,
an IPSec enabled FCIP circuit bounced.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
Tape drives fail when running over FCR with EX_Ports in Open mode. The
REC accept payload is incorrect. If host to tape I/O traverses FCR and
includes an edge fabric, the tape drives run for a bit and then fail due to
REC ACC is not processed correctly if the EX_Port is operating in IM3/Open
mode.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Disable FICON Emulation.
Abort in FICON Tape Read emulation if Attention status received between
status and status accept.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
In FICON environment, IFCCs are seen when enabling ICL ports with Lossless
DLS enabled, traffic can be adversely affected.
