The host failed to discover tapes due to a VI/VT (Virtual Initiator/Virtual Target) database mismatch between the switches that are part of the same Encryption Group (EG). Therefore, the host cannot discover tape devices that are part of the same EG. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c Workaround prior to upgrade: Issue cryptocfg --commit again to sync up the VT/VI database across nodes in the EG. Common Access Library Daemon (CALD) detects a large memory increase on the HP StorageWorks 2408 FCoE switch when running multiple SMIA clients over FCoE. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c The loginshow command on an FCoE switch displays unexpected Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c values when an LP21000 or LP21002 CNA is moved between switches. In a remote corner case, an IPC failure message appears on one of the nodes when using the cryptocfg --show -groupmember -all command. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c Workaround prior to upgrade: Issue cryptocfg --show -groupcfg and cryptocfg --show -localEE commands to show the health of the EG (Encryption Group). Running Fabric OS commands on the default switch with virtual fabrics enabled, after performing multiple cfgenable commands with TI zones enabled, causes a No space left on device error, and no further Fabric OS commands can be executed. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c In a multi-circuit FCIP tunnel configuration with 1606 Extension SAN switch, or multiprotocol extension blade, circuit failover on 1 Gb tunnels Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c may not fail over to other available circuits with two rate limited circuits. Due to slow read track performance when XRC emulation is enabled, MVS I/O errors are generated when an invalid selective reset frame is sent to the controller, causing Abort Sequences later on. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c Workaround prior to upgrade: Disable FICON XRC Emulation. Need additional information of EE (Encryption Engine) status for the entire EG (Encryption Group) in a single command. Currently we have to invoke cryptocfg --show -groupcfg", cryptocfg --show -groupmember -all, or cryptocfg --show -localEE on all nodes to know the overall state of EG including EE state across the EG. . Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c When auditing is on for security class, a race condition can occur in raslogd, which leads to a switch panic or hafailover. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c Workaround prior to upgrade: Disable auditing via auditcfg -disable. IFCCs are encountered when processing Read Channel Extender Capabilities with XRC Emulation (IPLing systems with SDM LPARs). Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c Workaround prior to upgrade: Disable FICON XRC emulation. RNID frame type field from the host is corrupted internally when the host is connected over FCIP, and is rejected by the switch. This results in the switch being unable to get FICON CHPID online to VSM (Virtual Tape Subsystem) over an emulated or non-emulated VE tunnel. The E_Port between switches functions correctly.

Workaround prior to upgrade:
Issue
cryptocfg --commit
again to
sync up the VT/VI database across
nodes in the EG.
The host failed to discover tapes due to a VI/VT (Virtual Initiator/Virtual
Target) database mismatch between the switches that are part of the
same Encryption Group (EG). Therefore, the host cannot discover tape
devices that are part of the same EG.

Common Access Library Daemon (CALD) detects a large memory in-
crease on the HP StorageWorks 2408 FCoE switch when running mul-
tiple SMIA clients over FCoE.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c
The
loginshow
command on an FCoE switch displays unexpected
values when an LP21000 or LP21002 CNA is moved between switches.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c
Workaround prior to upgrade:
Issue
cryptocfg --show -groupcfg
and
cryptocfg --show
-localEE
commands to show the
health of the EG (Encryption Group).
In a remote corner case, an IPC failure message appears on one of the
nodes when using the
cryptocfg --show -groupmember -all
command.
Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0c
Running Fabric OS commands on the default switch with virtual fabrics
enabled, after performing multiple
cfgenable
commands with TI zones
enabled, causes a

error, and no further
Fabric OS commands can be executed.
