Solution
Closed defect summary
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
When an unsupported SFP is installed in an HP StorageWorks DC SAN
Director Multiprotocol Extension Blade, the amber LED flashes to indicate
a fault, as it should. However, if an optical cable is plugged into the
SFP, the amber LED extinguishes. The actual port status is unchanged.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Use CLI to view the configured IOD
state when IOD is enabled with
Lossless DLS.
When Lossless DLS is enabled, WebTools incorrectly shows iodset off,
but the CLI shows that it is enabled.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
In a rare circumstance with a switch running Fabric Watch, a panic
can occur after fwd terminated with exit code:134, exit sig:17, and
parent sig:0 when IPC buffer is overrun on a busy system.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
With an HP StorageWorks 1606 SAN Extension Switch and an Multi-
protocol Extension Blade, smart data for GE-type ports (such as SFP
temperature and power) are not updated in sfpshow by the automatic
polling loop.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
In a 2408 FCoE Switch and a 10/24 FCoE Blade, when CNA sends
FIP ver=0, the switch should not validate the MAC descriptor field for
backwards compatibility, but it does, leading to the switch rejecting the
login.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
The host cannot recover if a back-end tape target becomes unresponsive
during encryption switch-initiated commands.

resulting in the hosts being unable to detect the tape devices.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
In a rare case, a buffer leak in the rekey daemon causes an HP Storage-
Works Encryption SAN Switch fault during rekey. A power cycle is re-
quired to recover.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
The SNMP manager gets incorrect MIB information from a switch running
Fabric OS 6.1.x due to a change in SwFwEPortUtil and Sw- FwEPortPktl
between SW_v5_7 to SW_v5_8 MIB.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
After upgrade from Fabric OS 6.2.x to Fabric OS 6.3.0b/c and then
downgrade back down to Fabric OS6.2.0x, observe critical message
"BKSW-5002 " swd_drv.c, line: 1323.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
The command fcoe loginshow displays unexpected values when an
LP21000 or LP21002 CNA is moved between switches.
