HP 4400 HP B-series Fabric OS 6.3.2d Release Notes (5697-1105, July 2011) - Page 42

Directors with 8Gb blade in slot 1 or 8Gb switches see frame drop in the fabric when there are Ex/VEx ports configured in the same ASIC chip as an F/E port with EGID 0. Fabric with this problem can be identified by running sloterrshow 1 on directors or sloterrshow on a switch, and type6_miss counter should be seen continuously incrementing during traffic load on backend port/E_Port. Workaround prior to upgrade: Avoid configuring an EX_Port or a VE_Port near an F/E_Port with an EGID of 0. To identify a port with an EGID of 0, login as root and run bladeportmap [1]. The first port where Upt is not -1 uses EGID 0. Once the problem occurs, the user must make the F/E port into an EX_Port and then configure it back to an F/E_Port to fix the problem port. Execute the following instructions: 1. Disable the F/E_Port. 2. Configure the F/E_Port as an EC_Port for a valid FID. 3. Connect a link between the FID and the EX port (IFL). 4. Enable the port. 5. Verify that the link is online, then disable the port. 6. Disable the EX_Port configuration. 7. Connect the host/ISL back to the F/E_Port. 8. Enable the port. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. Switch reboot after Access Gateway daemon panic following hot code load (HCL). This failure is usually observed with [PORT-1003] in raslog, Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. and only with Access Gateway enabled switches. Very intermittent issue where rpcd crash can occur due to uninitialized pointer, if user changes security configuration (certificates or rpc secret) through Web Tools while there is an active rpc connection from SMI-A. Due to this rpcd panic followed by weblinker.fcg restart to make the configuration effective, a cold recovery of the CPs is triggered. Workaround prior to upgrade: Stop using the SMI-based application until the firmware is upgraded to Fabric OS 6.3.2. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. Access Control Lists are not getting populated, even though the ACL Policies are set on the switch. As a result, ACL related configuration is not possible through DCFM or other common access layer (CAL) interfaces, even though it can be done through the CLI. This issue affects only the HP 2408 FCoE switch and 10/24 FCoE blade. Workaround prior to upgrade: Use the CLI. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. CNA cannot login during shut/no shut of port that occurs in the middle of FCoE login attempt. Doing fcoe -enable/disable does not recover it. This issue affects only the HP 2408 FCoE switch and 10/24 FCoE blade. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. After a firmwaredownload hafailover/hareboot, switch is missing domain route, indicated by RTWR-1003 retry messages. Only pertinent to fabric with VE link to 1606 Extension SAN switch or Multiprotocol Extension blade in IM2 mode. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. A device with a node WWN of zero connected to an NPIV port that is queried by CALD, causes the switch to panic and reboot about every Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.2. 20 to 30 minutes. 42
