HP StorageWorks 8/8 - SAN Switch Release Note page 51

Node descriptors missing from FICON RNID data for HP StorageWorks
DC SAN Director and HP StorageWorks DC04 Director.
Tape pipelining code randomly sends only data frames in an exchange
to a tape drive over an FCIP link, leading to tape job failure.
Portswap does not work for ports 32 - 47 on 48 port blade via the
GUI for FICON.
Registered Link Incident Records (RLIR) with Loss of Light (LOL) are being
generated on 8 Gb channels during CEC Initial Machine Load (IML)
in FICON environment.
Tape pipelining code does not close exchange upon an ELS RJT re-
sponse to REC -- invalid oxid/rxid combo causing write se-
quence failures. Tape reads are unaffected.
Fibre Channel FastWrite (FCFW) corrupts buffer pool upon Turbo Write
Block (TWB) allocation failure on Proxy Initiator leading to I/O failure.
With HP StorageWorks DC SAN Director, Web Tools shows high host
CPU usage (approximately 80%) when port configuration operation
is performed on a large system. CPU usage goes back to normal once
operation completes.
Supportsave may show parity errors on disabled ports on a switch
that has been upgraded from a lower code level to Fabric OS 6.1.2
and never cold booted. No errors will be caused on enabled ports,
or after a disabled port is enabled.
When a blade is hot plugged into an HP StorageWorks DC SAN
Director or HP StorageWorks DC04 Director, its information will not
appear in the embedded GUI.
Lossless DLS failed with dropped frame causing IFCC in presence of
ICLs.
