GbE ports on HP StorageWorks Extension SAN Switch or Multi-protocol

Page 70 highlights

Port reference provided to FICON host by Director History Buffer incorrectly references port address rather than port number. This can cause Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0a the host to reference the wrong port. With Fabric OS 6.2, B-series switch in interopmode 3 experiences an Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0a NSD panic with C-series switch in interop mode. Transient detected error on internal link caused 8-Gb blade to be faulted with reason=5. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0a Workaround prior to code change: Use slotpoweroff and slotpoweron to clear the fault. After downgrading to 6.2.0x from 6.3.0, when you execute the fwconfigure --eport --ST command runs, the threshold will be set to 63, which is not allowed in Fabric OS 6.2. Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0a Software verify error detected appears on console during upgrade to 6.3.0 from RC builds on HP StorageWorks 8/80 SAN Fixed in Fabric OS 6.3.0a Switch.
