4.0 Resolved Issues
The following issues are fixed in SFA OS v2.2.1.3.
• Tracking of preexisting bad blocks could be lost when upgrading to SFA OS 2.2.1.0 or
2.2.1.2.
• Previously, an error in the kernel memory allocator could cause a controller reboot
on SFA10K-E, SFA12K-20E, and SFA12KXE systems. This happened rarely.
[SR35724][DE16123]
• CVE-2014-6271, CVE-2014-7169: bash code injection security vulnerability via
environment variables (aka Shellshock).
[DE16555]
The following issues are fixed in SFA OS v2.2.1.2.
• Resolved issues on embedded models related to application stacks (virtual machines)
configured to Auto Start:
o Following a controller boot-up, stacks could previously fail to auto start, while
shown as “running.” (Could occur on any prior firmware release if Auto Start was
enabled.)
o Manual recovery or workaround prior to loading this firmware to address the
issue: After waiting at least two minutes for VM boot, attempt to access the
stack/VM console (method is configuration dependent; see the SFA OS User
Guide). If the VM is found to not be accessible, AP SHUTDOWN STACK <#>
ABRUPT may be used, followed by AP START STACK <#>. Note, improper
use of the AP SHUTDOWN command (such as issuing this command on stacks
which are on-line) may impact system operation or availability.
o Following a controller boot or restart, an additional reboot could occur (rare).
5.0 Known Issues
5.1 Common
• Upgrading 1.5.3: When upgrading an SFA controller from 1.5.3 to 2.x, even though
the upgrade process has completed, the second controller may not shut down and
restart.
Once the upgrade process is started on the first controller, refrain from issuing any
application commands with the COUNTER option from either controller until after
the completion of the upgrade and restart of the second controller. Otherwise, the
second controller may not shut down and restart with the new firmware.
