Known Issues Erroneous Error Message When No Firmware File Selected During a firmware upgrade, if the Download firmware file from field is left blank, or erroneous text is entered in the field, the following error message displays when you click Send and Load Firmware: System File Error Firmware Successfully Loaded Although the error message indicates that the firmware has been successfully loaded, no changes were actually made to the switch or its firmware. Workaround Perform the firmware upgrade again, ensuring that the Download firmware from file field contains a valid file name. A Device Cannot Send Frames to Itself After the Active Zone Set Is Deactivated With the introduction of Hard Zoning in firmware 05.xx.xx, a device can no longer send frames to itself after the active zone set (of which it is a member) is deactivated. Workaround Perform a block/unblock to the port of the device experiencing this issue to cause the device to log back in to the fabric and allow the device to send frames to itself. False SBAR Failure in Director 2/64 Under Very High Fibre Channel Traffic In a Director 2/64, a false event 602 and 604 (active SBAR failure) may occur in a very high traffic environment. The director fails over to the backup SBAR, and no interruption of fabric operations is encountered. Workaround If an event 602 and 604 occur in a Director 2/64 and coincide with very high fibre channel traffic, remove and replace the SBAR unit and verify the events do not recur. If the events recur, then the SBAR is defective and must be replaced. 24 Director Release Notes

longer send frames to itself after the active zone set (of which it is a member) is
deactivated.
Workaround
Perform a block/unblock to the port of the device experiencing this issue to cause
the device to log back in to the fabric and allow the device to send frames to itself.
False SBAR Failure in Director 2/64 Under Very High Fibre Channel
Traffic

very high traffic environment. The director fails over to the backup SBAR, and no
interruption of fabric operations is encountered.
Workaround
If an event 602 and 604 occur in a Director 2/64 and coincide with very high fibre
