Security
Reported In Release:
FOS6.4.2
Technology Area:
Fabric Authentication
Symptom:
On director, with SSL configured on Active CP, a newly inserted Standby CP may panic.
On switch, hot code load may result in cold recovery due to CP Panic if Time Server becomes
unreachable during hareboot.
Condition:
On Directors, a new/replacement standby CP may panic upon insertion.
This may happen if:
1. The clock on the new standby CP is configured to a later time than on the active CP and
2.
Weblinker is auto restarted to pick up a configuration change such as SSL configured on the
active CP, but not configured on the new standby CP.
On Switches, hareboot may result in cold recovery, due to CP Panic, if Time Server becomes
unreachable during hareboot and the internal clock is configured to an earlier time than the Time
Server clock.
Workaround:
For director CP replacement case:
Perform hadisabled before inserting standby CP.
Then login to standby CP, change the date/time
on standby CP to earlier than on the active CP using the command "/bin/date" and then execute
haEnable.
For Switch hot code case:
Configure the switch to use local time (instead of NTP) and then revert back to NTP upon
successful completion of warm recovery.
Recovery:
No action required. Previous switch reboot will fix the issue.
