Solution
Closed defect summary
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.1a.
Under heavy stress, I/O jobs may lead to a faulty encryption blade or switch
for certain third party tapes.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.1a.
Read throughput does not improve after enabling tape read pipelining on
the HP 1606 SAN Extension Switch due to SILI and variable length settings
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.1a.
After an i2c reset, FC switch ports report Mod_Val state rather than “Online”
when a Switchshow command is executed and ISL fails to form. This affects
all switches except for the following:
•
HP 8/8 Base (0) e-port SAN Switch
•
HP 8/8 (8)-ports Enabled SAN Switch
•
HP 8/24 Base 16-ports Enabled SAN Switch
•
HP 8/40 Base 24-ports Enabled SAN Switch
•
HP 8/40 Power Pack+ 24-ports SAN Switch
•
HP StorageWorks EVA4400 embedded switch module, 8Gb Brocade
•
Brocade 4Gb SAN Switch for HP p-Class BladeSystem
•
Brocade 4Gb SAN Switch for HP c-Class BladeSystem
•
Brocade 8Gb SAN Switch for HP BladeSystem c-Class
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.1a.
After a power on reset of a mainframe server, some CHPIDs are in an Invalid
Attachment state in a FICON setup. This is caused by the Management Server
(MS) main thread blocking on SNMP notification calls which prevents pending
Extended Link Service commands in the message queue from completing
within the timeout interval.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.1a.
When there are multiple FCRs connected to the same edge fabric, the server
aborts any tape operation causing the tape backup to fail. When this occurs,
the tape backup must be restarted.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.1a.
After port disable/enable or cable pull disruptive testing, when a fabricshow
command is executed, some switches are not visible, some VEx ports remain
disabled (Switch not ready for EX_Ports). This occurs when performing

Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.1a.
On the HP 2408 24-10GbE w/8-8Gb FC Base FCoE and the HP 2408
24-10GbE w/8-8Gb PwrPk+ FCoE Switches CRC errors on internal links
might occur when jumbo frames are transmitted under certain traffic loads

mode is enabled and configured as “auto”.

The lfmd daemon terminates and kernel panic occurs while performing a
supportsave command.This occurs when there is large number of LISL
configurations with virtual fabrics.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.1a.
The host is unable to see the target in an E2E topology through a VEX port
of an FCIP link because of improper routing.
