Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a Workaround prior to upgrade: Re-enable Lossless / IOD on logical switches that were previously enabled.

As a result of an external FC port experiencing an excessive number of encoding CRC errors, the internal ports are faulted incorrectly by switch firmware, hence a data encryption virtual initiator associated with the internal port fails to appear in name server.

Unexpected reboot and failover when attempting to push zone DB from DCFM in IM2/IM3 fabrics. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a Workaround prior to upgrade: Use CLI (or ECFM for non-TI/Redirect zones) in IM2/IM3.

slotpoweroff/on
the
FCoE10-24 to clear the faulty state.

In FICON environment, FRU events are not generated on the operator's
console for removal or insertion.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.4.0a
Workaround prior to upgrade:
