When interop mode set to 1, Disable NodeName Zone Checking

Page 19 highlights

In a FICON environment a Switch panic (in the Management Server daemon) could be seen if the switch receives one of three FICON specific frames (FICON GCAP, RLIR, RNID) and the fabric goes "unstable" (fabric being rebuilt such as when one of the switches in the fabric is powered off) before a response is sent. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Traffic can't be routed into backbone fabric from EX_Port on 400 MP Router with domain ID 7 or 12 and from FR4-18i Blade in 4/256 Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 with various domain ID's. Rapidly issuing repeated supportsave commands can cause switch panic due to out of memory condition. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 When interop mode set to 1, "Disable NodeName Zone Checking" parameter also changes from 0 to 1, but returns to 0 after switch reboot. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Due to race condition in RNID command from FICON channels, FICON CUP daemon crashes and switch panics after switch comes up then it starts processing the RNID command. Problem affects FICON environment for Fabric OS 5.1 and later. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Web Tools error message provided when fmsmode setting fails is not clear. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Web Tools is missing "Invalid CRCS" under Fabric Watch end to end class pull down menu, due to missing "CRC Error" option. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 GUI component size squeezed due to lack of proper refresh after resizing. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Errlog (raslog) messages not available for diagnosing DHCP problems. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Web Tools allows (switch,port) members to be added as member of a zone in interop mode, but this won't actually be created successfully. Fixed in Fabric OS 5.3.0 by blocking addition of D,P members & D,P zoning when in interop mode. Some switches are segmented with reason alias ID overlap when selected switches in fabric configured to use Alias Server due to lack of Alias Server support in Fabric OS 5.2.0. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 On Solaris, when switch already in marginal state and another marginal event occurs, Events list in Call Home email not getting updated with exact reason for the alert. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 FCIP error message not correct while editing/adding the subnet mask of an IP address that conflicts with the existing IP addresses. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 EZManager doesn't differentiate ports as storage and hosts if no devices/hosts connections made. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 During stress testing with large number of sent error frames leading to generation of very big core file, and watchdog timer timeout. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Enc out counter increases on unused ports on 2Gb platforms after HAreboot or firmware download. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Web Tools is not displaying "logged in" Radius account information. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Units for temperature, Rx and Tx power are not shown on SFP tab in Web Tools. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Web Tools doesn't display units of Total Bandwidth and Bandwidth Demand in Fabric Topology Window. Fixed per Fabric OS 5.3.0 Web Tools incorrectly returns "Directory change failed" error message rather than "file path provided is not valid" error message when config upload fails due to invalid file path.
