Closed defect summary Solution If SNMP polling by management application is too frequent, the CPU may become overloaded resulting in other operational failures not directly related to this functionality. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2c. There previously was no easy way to diagnose link level errors on backend ports. This release includes a new diagnostic command, pterrshow, to display ASIC backend errors. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2c. Ports cannot negotiate at 8G speed on the following switches: • 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 8/80 Base 48-ports Enabled SAN Switch • HP 8/80 Power Pack+, 48-ports SAN Switch • HP EVA4400 embedded switch module • 8Gb Brocade Brocade 8Gb SAN Switch for HP BladeSystem c-Class • HP 1606 SAN Extension Switch Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2c. Issuing an HA failover command on either of the HP SN8000B SAN Backbone Directors (8-Slot or 4-Slot) may result in internal routing related Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2c. errors for ICL ports. Fabric OS 6.3.2d fixes Table 10 lists defects closed in the Fabric OS 6.2.3d firmware release. Table 10 Fabric OS 6.3.2d closed defects Closed defect summary Solution Upon disabling one link of a two-port trunk, the HP DC SAN Backbone Director Switch encountered both CPs panicking within three minutes. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2d. This is a topology and upgrade path specific issue. Hosts may lose access to storage after changing the FCR backbone domain ID on an HP DC SAN Backbone Director Switch or HP DC04 SAN Director Switch with an HP SAN Director 48-port 8Gb FC Blade or an HP DC SAN Director 64-port 8Gb FC Blade. The frames drops occur on the backend ports of the blades. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2d. A switch running in Access Gateway (AG) mode does not clean up the fabric channel frame exchange properly. This occurs when FLOGI/FDISC Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2d. comes in from different ports together with same exchange ID (OX-ID). A host is unable to access the target when connected to a 4 Gb switch Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2d. during a specific storage device power-up sequence. SNMP Throttling commands are not available for admin user. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2d. Effective date July 2011 54

Solution
Closed defect summary
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2d.
Upon disabling one link of a two-port trunk, the HP DC SAN Backbone
Director Switch encountered both CPs panicking within three minutes.
This is a topology and upgrade path specific issue.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2d.
Hosts may lose access to storage after changing the FCR backbone
domain ID on an HP DC SAN Backbone Director Switch or HP DC04
SAN Director Switch with an HP SAN Director 48-port 8Gb FC Blade
or an HP DC SAN Director 64-port 8Gb FC Blade. The frames drops
occur on the backend ports of the blades.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2d.
A switch running in Access Gateway (AG) mode does not clean up the
fabric channel frame exchange properly. This occurs when FLOGI/FDISC
