NetWare Release Notes
ACS Fixes
Table 4 summarizes fixes made to ACS with this release.
Note: Fixes involving Last Failure Codes are very specific, and they address a specific
cause for many controller issues; however, fixes for other conditions may exist for that
same LFC code.

Item Subject Description
1. WWID loss on remote copy sets
during DRM site failover
The problem involving the loss of the initiator WWID on
remote copy set (RCS) units after a site failover to target
site, and then to a controller failover has been resolved.
2. New LFC OE199001 and
updates to Repair Code 90
Issues on DRM systems that cause a surviving controller to
become inoperative after a
Field Replace Utility (FRUTIL)
replacement controller has been inserted, resulting in a
LFC=01942088, has been resolved. The controller failure
associated with this issue was recursive.
Repair Code 90 has updated troubleshooting steps to
handle the following Recursive Bugcheck error scenarios:
An internal software structure for a write history log
unit has been detected inconsistent on “this
controller” (the controller that failed).
For this condition, the prior firmware (V8.7 and
earlier) would have recursively failed with a trace
similar to the following:
Controller LFC = 01942088 crash. PDAL
recursive crash near PC = C016F144
PARAM(7) = 0x00000A1C
The controller would have then halted with LED (hex)
25 in the LED codes.
With V8.8-1, “this controller” (the controller that
failed) comes up misconfigured so that it can avoid a
recursive bug check failure.
