Solution
Closed defect summary
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Access the edit window for the file
and make a change, prior to
activating a CUP configuration file.
Port Names in FICUD active CP cache not replicated to backup after
WebTools file activate w/o edit. Active switch configuration is lost after
CTP failover. Port enable / disable states are retained, but portnames
and blocked / unblocked state are not reflected in the Active Configur-
ation view for CUP Port Connectivity.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
After a non-disruptive firmware upgrade, when a port on an HP Stor-
ageWorks 1606 SAN Extension Switch is changed from EX_Port to
NPIV, NPIV devices cannot log in to the switch.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
In a FICON environment, FMS cache on standby CTP can become
corrupted. Host in-band operations that include portname updates may
fail. Portnames in the active and/or IPL configuration may contain un-
expected data.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
8/24 SAN switch in AG mode detected termination of process
agd0:1784.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
In a FICON environment, IO/Ops is not displaying E-Ports on MVS
Console. Incorrect data presented to mainframe operator console.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Brocade_Switch SMI CAL call returns error message due to not receiving
all properties from the switch when gateway is not configured.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
In a FICON environment, IPL file save from WebTools fails - "File content

ity, File Directory edit window, fails. The save button is only enabled
when ASM mode is off, which is correct. But an error is being returned

Operation and Network Maintenance Daemon (ONMD) crashed when
links were coming up, as a result of saving the configuration with LLDP
disabled on HP StorageWorks 2408 FCoE switch or 10/24 FCoE
blade.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
ficud terminated - -- FICUD - CONFIGURATION S4 TIMEOUT DETECTED.
CUP unresponsive to FICON host. Timeout IFCC's incurred on host
systems. Active CTP termination and failover.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Disable FICON XRC Emulation.
FICON emulation does not handle the abort sequence correctly, which
causes DSO FICON CRC errors during XRC RRS processing. Eventually,
the session that encountered the error becomes suspended.

originating on attached EOS switches are not reported to FICON host

forms
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
After 8Gb blade fault with HP StorageWorks 4/256 SAN Director, DC
SAN Director or DC04 SAN Director, port was taken offline at asic
level, but offline SCN (State Change Notification) was not sent to routing
module, fspfd, fabricd, which created an inconsistent view between
application and kernel on the port state of the faulted blade. Leads to
Switch not ready for F or L port message with replacement blade.
