FICON traps sent with wrong "Enterprise" value resulting in trap being processed as a swFault. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 In Web Tools customized port detail report, the report will be generated for all ports even if the user gives a particular port range as a filter. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 On 2Gb/s platforms, switch panic can occur if unstable or faulty port generates excessive number of interrupts. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 When rebooting the active CP from Root, the warning text that is displayed when rebooting from Admin to warn that rebooting the active CP will disrupt traffic, is not displayed. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 In edge to backbone fabric configuration with target in backbone fabric and host in edge fabric, 400 MP Router neither accepted or aborted a PLOGI. Only happens when there are devices in the fabric for which the link is taken online/offline quickly within a short period of time. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 4/64 SAN switch with 5.1.0d experienced HW/SW interlock that became stuck requiring port disable/enable to clear the condition. This issue was not reproducible. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Using API to access default zoning information could cause switch to panic due to invalid pointer. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 With large zoneset (over 1200 zones) API library crashes as the zone library does memcpy that doesn't have terminating zero in the buffer. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Change made in 5.2.0 to limit the number of FDISCs per unit of time, caused timeouts of NPIV logins in some BladeServer configurations Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0. with VC-FC. When FOS version prior to 5.2.0 is upgraded to a later version and the fabric.ops.mode.pidFormat value was previously set to zero, the switch will continually reboot. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 In extremely rare conditions when a particular timing window is hit at the same time an internal end to end monitor wraps its counter, the standby CP can get stuck in a reboot loop. The condition is that due to a race condition, a partial HA update arrives before a full update from the active CP, resulting in standby CP going into continuous restart cycle. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 When MS request issued with WWN that didn't exist in the fabric, the MS Daemon panicked. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 The 2/128 was forwarding PLOGI frames received with DID as broadcast format which was causing issues with other devices in the fabric. Fixed in Fabric OS 5.3.0. No longer forwards these type of frames. For platforms running 5.2.0 and above with domain, port zoning, there is a small window during which if a device sends it PLOGI very fast, and before the nameserver information has been fully propagated, the PLOGI may be dropped. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 CLI systemverification command incorrectly reports false positive failure on FC4-16IP Blade. This diagnostic command is not typically run by a customer. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 "Stats" menu option doesn't work when executing minicycle command. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Process login drop due to devices in different edge fabrics with same node WWN. Applies to 4/256 with FCR-18i Blade, and 400 MP Router. Routers may not forward the Nameserver request to proper domain, resulting in request timeout & retries every 2 seconds.
