Defect ID: DEFECT000297954
Technical Severity: Medium
Summary: Due to heartbeat counter communication problems between the Control Processor (CP)
and FR4-18i blade, the CP and blade can lose sync, causing the blade to be rebooted.
Symptom: FCIP-5030 messages are seen in the internal RASLOG, indicating that the FR4-18i blade
has lost heartbeat with the Control Processor (CP). Switch is rebooted with a "HAM-1004
reboot unknown" error message showing in the RASLOG.
Feature: Field Escalation
Function: FCIP
Probability: Low
Found in Release: FOS6.3.0
Service Request ID: 429431
Where Else Fixed: FOS6.3.2, FOS6.4.1
Defect ID: DEFECT000298571
Technical Severity: Medium
Summary: "(DLS)" label needs to be removed from the "Dynamic Load Sharing" and "Lossless" group
boxes that show up in the Webtools Switch Administration Routing Tab

Where Else Fixed: FOS6.4.1
Defect ID: DEFECT000298920
Technical Severity: Medium
Summary: QoS priority traffic distribution over an FCIP tunnel may be incorrect with large amounts of
outstanding I/O, due to resource depletion at high IO rates.
Symptom: QoS circuits running over a 1G/10G bandwidth circuit will have incorrect QoS distributions
with large I/O, resulting in QoS priority traffic distribution not being enforced properly over
an FCIP Tunnel. Customer using QoS zoning may see performance issues on the Brocade
7800 and FX8-24 products.
Feature: FCIP
Function: FCIP I/O
Probability: Medium
Found in Release: FOS6.3.1
Where Else Fixed: FOS6.3.2, FOS6.4.1
Defect ID: DEFECT000298963
Technical Severity: Medium
Summary: Weblinker kept unused file descriptors which caused FFDCs and RAS-1004 Software
'Verify' errors every 3 minutes on a VF, filling up the RASLOG.
Symptom: A customer may see RAS-1004 Software 'Verify' errors every 3 minutes on each VF on a
switch being managed by DCFM or Web Tools, if VF is enabled and Radius server is
configured. This will fill up the RASLOG and eventually causes an FFDC event in other
system modules due to “too many open files”.
Feature: Field Escalation
Function: OS: Infrastructure
Probability: Medium
Found in Release: FOS6.3.1
Service Request ID: 430447
Where Else Fixed: FOS6.4.1
