Solution
Closed defect summary
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Do not put AG switch at the
secondary port on 48-port blades.
When Access Gateway switch is connecting to a secondary port on an
8Gb or 4Gb 48
port blade, if the primary port goes down, some frames
may be wrongly routed to the Access Gateway switch's secondary port,
and AG will respond to these frames with ACC rather than drop.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
Misleading error when attempting to set port name field on port 255
(unsupported port).
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0
With HP StorageWorks 4/8 and 4/16 SAN Switches, and 4Gb
BladeSystem switches for p-Class and c-Class BladeSystem, speed ne-
gotiation fails when the port is locked as G_Port, and port cannot come
online.

Workaround prior to upgrade:

switch, or multiprotocol extension blade, circuit failover on 1 Gb tunnels
may not fail over to other available circuits with two rate limited circuits.
