HP StorageWorks Director and Edge Switch Release Notes (09.09.08) (5697-0720, October 2010)

Affected productsDescription
AllEvents with code 411 could be posted with OSMS faults with 153C2, 153C3 and
153AB codes due to internal race conditions when a M-series/McDATA switch was
in a fabric with B-series switches.
While processing a GPSC command, OSMS faulted with code 73 00 00 00 while
clearing internal database.
AllRoutes were not being set up correctly when running Frame Redirection over Fibre
Channel Routing, causing a host attached to the switch not to see the target.
AllEvent 159 Frame Redirect Deactivated event messages were reported during an
IML (initial machine load) even when Frame Redirection was not enabled.
Director 2/140, Direct-
or 2/64
Error counter statistics were not maintained correctly in 4Gb QPM port cards. The
C3 Discard frames counter increased continuously even though no frame drops
occurred.
Director 2/140In a mixed M-series and B-series fabric including an Encryption Switch, when a
configuration save or change on the Encryption Switch redirect zones was performed,
hosts connected the Director 2/140 lost access to their storage if also connected
to the Director 2/140, for 10 seconds or more.
Table 3 Fixes since firmware release 09.09.00
Affected productsDescription
AllA switch was blocking a PLOGI accept on the remote end because the near end
did not send SW_RSCN before PLOGI. This resulted in slow server bootup.
AllWhen Frame Redirection (FR) was used in a mixed M-series and B-series fabric, and
there were virtual targets (VT) that were either NPIV or loop devices connected to
the same physical port, and a host port was a member of two different FR zonesthat
each included a virtual target (VT1 and VT2) on the same physical port, if the con-
nection between the host and VT1 was interrupted, then the connection between
that host and VT2 might also have been interrupted.
Director 2/140If a port received a frame with an invalid source ID (SID), the port would not appear
as a logged-in port, even though traffic was not disrupted. The Director was reporting
an incorrect port status.
Director 2/140
Director 2/64
In a FICON environment, the Director would provide an incorrect Interface Protocol
Type for Node Selector 0 in response to the inband query Read Node Identifi-
er.
AllDue to an internal error, some switches encountered Event 411, Firmware Fault,
with Fault Code 00000073.
Edge Switch 2/24Audit log entries showed the HAFM/EFCM server IP address as 0.0.0.0
AllZone activation could fail for fabrics with a large number of zones.
AllIf the line speed of the Ethernet port was set to 10 Mb/s and half duplex using the
CLI, in subsequent queries using config ip show the line speed would be shown
as Unknown.
Director 2/140
nl
M4700, M4400
In a fabric where a zone member is in more than one RD zone, the control processor
(CTP) could exhibit a failure and generate an Event 411, Firmware Fault with event
data of 80 48.
