Solution
Closed defect summary
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2.
A switch panic occurs during
firmwaredownload
with termination
of msd (management server daemon). If a request was cancelled in the
midst of processing, a race condition between two threads can occur,
triggering an msd panic and
hareboot
/
hafailover
of switches.
Observed in fabric with EOSc switch that ignores GMAL request.
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Manually reboot the switch after
firmwarerestore
.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2.
The
firmwarerestore
command does not restore the firmware to
the original version after a
firmwaredownload
to downgrade from
Fabric OS 6.4.x to 6.3.x, or from Fabric OS 6.3.x to 6.2.x with the
-sfbn
option
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Use
slotpoweroff/on
the 10/24
FCoE blade to clear the faulty state.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2.
As a result of
firmwaredownload
,
systemverifcation
test, or
blade insertion, occasionally 10/24 FCoE blade may turn faulty 21.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2.
Intermittent network connection problem led to failure of the management
interface port on the encryption SAN switch, causing multiple switches
within the encryption group to go out of sync. The encryption Group
Leader detected the departure of a member, but the member did not
detect the departure of the Group Leader, and the group got out of
sync.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2.
