Technology:
Traffic Management
Reported In Release:
FOS7.2.0
Technology Area:
FC-FC routing
Closed In Release(s):
FOS7.1.2a(Fixed)
Symptom:
Customer could see different symptoms, such as:
1. RTWR error due to frame drop on 16G FCR
2. Fabric domains are inconsistent between fabric module and routing module, which cause Fport
cannot come online.
Condition:
If non-trunked EX-port is configured, when remote side of the EX-port goes down (i.e E-port
disabled), in a multiple 16G FCR Backbone-to-Edge configuration, iswitchd will not remove the LE
domain. It will retain the LE domain even though its proxies are removed. During this time, all the
domain controller frames to the LE domain are dropped. This does not impact 4G/8G FCR switches.
However, SCN is not sent and could impact fabric rebuild.
