Table 14 HP-UX January 2010 (WEB1001) Fixes
DescriptionDefect ID
This fixes the issue where the fcd driver corrupts the card's NVRAM content, due to the current
driver logic, which computes and writes the checksum incorrectly under certain circumstances.
QXCR1000979379
The NVRAM corruption issue occurs only if the OS Boot Mode is set to [Windows/Linux/Other],
which is the default (i.e., manufacturing) setting.
The fcd driver may cause a system panic with a data TLB fault. This problem, due to a potential
race condition, where the fcd driver receives an I/O completion interrupt from the card, while it
is still processing fatal errors, has been fixed.
QXCR1000991234
This fixes an issue where the fcd driver may panic during boot, when there is an 8 Gb Mezzanine
HBA configured in a blade server.
QXCR1000934838
This fixes the issue where SNIA does not report more than 500 luns per HBA.QXCR1000922032
fcd panics during system dump to an EMC device. This issue, caused by sense data handling,
has been fixed.
QXCR1000976060
This fixes a system hang which occurred after CPU deletion. The hang was caused by interrupt
migration handling in the fcd driver.

Table 16 HP-UX March 2009 Fixes
DescriptionDefect ID
In HP-UX 11i v3, when you disable the legacy device-special files, the SNIA API
HBA_GetFcpTargetMapping() fails to report the remote targets correctly. This problem has been
fixed in the SNIA vendor library for the fcd driver.
