Host cannot se
e a specific device on 2Gb platforms: SAN Switch 2/32, Core Switch
2/64, SAN D ir
ector 2/128.
The workaroun
d if not upgrading to this latest 5.0.5a release is to remove and reinsert the
cable, or run portDisable/portEnable.
In rare cases, the zoning daemon (zoned) caused the switch to panic during HAfailover.
An abrupt power failure on a port blade on a 4/256 SAN Director caused the CPs to
sometimes fail. In the event of an abrupt power failure, the fix allows a small delay for t he
power failure to be reflected in the power status register.
Revised the error message that displays when portCfgGPort is issued for embedded
switches.
