Closed with Code Change in Fabric OS v7.0.1 – GA December 15, 2011
This section lists the defects with Critical, High and Medium Technical Severity closed with a code change
as of December 15, 2011 in Fabric OS v7.0.1. This section was updated on March 2, 2012.
Defect ID: DEFECT000326023
Technical Severity: High
Summary: HA-Failover of switch seen when running IP over FC with multi-frame sequences.
Symptom: With IPFC configuration, run IPFC Broadcast frames with multi frames in sequence; observe
switch fails over or hareboot after some run time.
Feature: Field Escalation
Function: Panic / OOM
Probability: Low
Found in Release: FOS6.4.0
Service Request ID: 487819
Where Else Fixed: FOS6.4.2 b GA
Defect ID: DEFECT000329676
Technical Severity: High
Summary: On FOSv6.3.2c and v6.4.0a or later, unstable links trigger continuous frame tracing to CPU
for processing.
Symptom: CPs cold recovery when continuous stream of frames are trapped to CPU, overloading the
processor. This is reported on 4G directors and is less likely to be triggered on 8G
switch/directors. Note: FOS 6.4.2 had improvement, and additional change is backported
from FOS7.0.0GA to FOS6.4.2b in this area to throttle further. FOS 6.3.2e pulled in the
same enhancement.
Feature: Field Escalation
Function: ASIC Driver
Probability: Low
Found in Release: FOS6.4.0
Service Request ID: 501279, 693771
Where Else Fixed: FOS6.4.2, FOS7.0.0 GA, FOS6.4.2 b GA
Defect ID: DEFECT000336580
Technical Severity: High
Summary: SNMP: FA-MIB: ConnUnitLinkTable did not return all the VE ISL entries
Symptom: The user will not get all the FCIP ISL link information in ConnUnitLinkTable
Feature: Mgmt Embedded - SNMP
Function: Other
Probability: Medium
Found in Release: FOS7.0.0
Defect ID: DEFECT000337102
Technical Severity: High
Summary: Non-decryptable DF mode tape causes FPGA/blade fault
Symptom: When a non-decryptable DF mode tape is processed by the BES, it can cause a
DECRYPT_DECOMPRESS timeout/failure, which in some instances can cause other tape
jobs to fail. In the most serious case, the BES or FS8-18 will fault, aborting all tape jobs.
Feature: Field Escalation
Function: Encryption
Probability: Low
Found in Release: FOS6.3.2
Service Request ID: 516651
