HP 1606 HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 6.3.2b Release Notes (5697-0777, November 20 - Page 45

Multiple FCR masters in edge fabrics after ISL issues in the backbone. Workaround prior to upgrade: Triggering a warm boot on the switch that should not be FCR master (higher WWN) should trigger it to recalculate the FCR master. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. After firmware upgrade to Fabric OS 6.3.x, SNMP V3 requests are not Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. returned with correct values and V3 traps are not received. FICON Tape Emulation aborts from channel due to incorrect CCW number in generated command retry status for write conv busy sequences. Channel Detected Error messages are seen for FICON Emulated tape devices during tape pipelining, leading to some special tape media (WORM drives) being unusable. Workaround prior to upgrade: Disable FICON Emulation. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. 64 bit port stats are available only in CLI via portStats64Show, not exposed through SNMP. Need to enhance SNMP code to expose these Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. counters. Created a TI zone followed by cfgsave and cfgenable; zone show indicated that it was created, but later reissuance of zone -show Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. did not display the TI zone. TI zone with failover-disabled policy under base switch is not supported and needs to be blocked. There are overlapping TI zones with failoverdisabled policy under LS partition in which one uses DISL connection and the other uses XISL connection. When DISL connection gets disabled, there is no traffic going through the XISL connection. Workaround prior to upgrade: Do not use TI zone with failover-disabled policy under base switch. With the code change in this release, executing TI zone command with failover-disabled policy under base switch gets the response: Cannot create TI zone with failover flag disabled on a base switch. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. The 1606 Extension switch does not support the Path Down function in IM2 mode. Fabric becomes unstable and segments when one leg of a Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. TI Zone with Failover Disabled is disrupted. In an encryption environment, tape devices intermittently show offline condition to the host. Observed in setup where some Physical Initiators Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. do not register as FC4 type devices and some do. On 4Gb switches, when a frame comes into the embedded port and there is no memory to hold it temporarily, the switch panics. This is likely Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. to happen when there are spurious interrupts from a device. When FCP_CONF command is dropped, the restore job from tape is unable to continue and complete successfully. Applies only to the 1606 Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. Extension switch and Multiprotocol Extension blade. CP-1250 heartbeat is dead on Multiprotocol Router blade, which results Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. in a CP panic and reboot. If per port NPIV limit on AG is set to greater than 26, some F_Ports may Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. not come online and stay as G_Ports. HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 6.3.2b Release Notes 45
