TI zones become disabled when Telnet times out following TI zone
change. Cfgsave actually pushes the data, but should not do so, as due
to session timeout, stale transaction is not properly terminated before
processing new TI zone, which can result in erroneous TI zone properties
list and lead to other fabric wide instability events.

followed by HA failover.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Kernel panic observed in standby (new active) CP in edge DC04 SAN
director when nameserver daemon terminated in active CP.

which the user will be locked out
would depend on how the LDAP
environment was setup.
After upgrading from Fabric OS 6.2.0g to 6.3.0, LDAP certificates are
missing and you may not be able to log in to the switch using LDAP
authentication. The degree to which the user is locked out depends on
how the LDAP environment was set up.

8/40 switch with more than 1MB zone DB across multiple logical
switches, may cause disruption.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Workaround prior to upgrade:

In a fabric with more than 50 switches, non-disruptive firmware down-
loads (HCL) on an HP StorageWorks DC SAN Director fails on the
standby CP.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Internal timing failure within HA failover can bring a port down. Port
will immediately be brought back online automatically at the end of the
HA or firmware upgrade operation.
