N_Port between AG and Edge Switch (300) may become stuck at E_Port Unknown state. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.2.0. Workaround prior to upgrade: Disable and then enable the port on the AG to bring the port back online as an N-Port. After multiple successive fastboots of an HP StorageWorks DC04 SAN Director, there was a panic due to the zone daemon dying. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.2.0. Workaround prior to upgrade: Fastboot a single time. FICON PTP VTS Selective Resets and Aborted sequences caused by incorrect entry into FICON tape read pipelining. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.2.0. EX_Port fails to come online after downgrading firmware from Fabric OS 6.x to 5.3 under certain conditions. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.2.0. Tstimezone settings cannot be changed or restored with configdownload. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.2.0. Workaround prior to upgrade: Remove the ts.tz parameter in the config file and then download.

Workaround prior to upgrade: Portdisable and then enable the EX_Ports that failed. In some instances, portshow may display inaccurate port authentication description or state after a CP failover.

The 32-character switchname and chassisname extensions do not fully display in RASLog outputs, such as errdump or supportsave output. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.2.0.
