Fabric OS 6.3.1a fixes
Table 12
lists defects closed in the Fabric OS 6.3.1a firmware release.
Table 12 Fabric OS 6.3.1a closed defects
Solution
Closed defect summary
New parameter added to Fabric OS
6.3.1a to allow adjustment of SFP
polling interval to avoid laser faults.
Under heavy CPU load, SFP laser fault condition may cause links to
reset.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.1a
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Remove the
port2Bound
file in
/
etc/fobos/port2Bound
files in
both active and standby CPs, and in
both partitions on both CPs, then
reboot the switch.
In a very rare circumstance with either an HP StorageWorks DC SAN
director or DC04 director, a configuration file for dynamic area mapping
gets corrupted, leading to both CPs failing and switch not boot up.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.1a
8Gb switch or director can panic or
hafailover
when detecting ter-
mination of daemons due to bad EOF frames being forwarded to the
CPU for processing.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.1a
Zoning restriction does not work for NPIV/loop ports when one device
tries to get another devices information on the same port using name
based queries (GID_PN, GID_NN), which could lead to device commu-
nication failures.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.1a
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Reboot switch again.
CP fails to boot on DC SAN director, DC04 SAN director, and 8/80
SAN switch on power up or during
hafailover
and CF access error:
HDA: drive not ready
message may be seen on the console.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.1a
When the new Brocade OUI device is implemented (mid-2010 time-
frame), devices on the encryption switch or encryption blade may not
be able to see devices across a router, or routed port due to VE_Ports
not coming up.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.1a
TCP connection dropped on encryption switch or encryption blade due
to lack of clean-up of locally managed socket.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.1a
Host hangs when scanning LUNs. Customer can scan cleartext LUNs
(0 and 1), but cannot scan encrypted LUNs 2 - 7 on certain device
types. Related to unsupported Solaris Host Cluster setup, where host
sent zero byte length Write commands.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.1a
Further optimization of SERDES setting for Brocade 8 Gb SAN Switch
for BladeSystem c-Class for future product support.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.1a
8
–
bit address not properly range checked, which could lead to segment
fault on future FOS upgrade.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.1a
After performing multiple configdownloads through DCFM or CLI, a
memory issue may occur with webd which normally will restart but may
occasionally trigger a switch panic.
