Fabric OS v7.0.2e Release Notes v1.0 Page 48 of 53
Summary:
Blade fault unnecessarily on rare parity errors.
Symptom:
Customer experienced frequent blade fault upon detecting transient self-correctable ASIC errors
Feature:
FOS Software
Function:
ASIC Driver
Reported In Release:
FOS7.1.0
Service Request ID:
1184138
Defect ID:
DEFECT000461019
Technical Severity:
Medium
Summary:
Report the back end link CRC with good EOF errors separately from the current asic error monitoring
scheme
Symptom:
Unable to decide when to tune serdes value for link optimal performance: Added new raslog C2-1020
and C2-1030, C3-1020 and C3-1030 to separately track backend CRC with good EOF
Probability:
Low
Feature:
FOS Software
Function:
ASIC Driver
Reported In Release:
FOS6.4.3
Defect ID:
DEFECT000418918
Technical Severity:
Medium
Summary:
Bit errors in lookup memory may cause incorrect decryption.
Symptom:
If the read only memory (ROM) inside the FPGA used by the AES engine for memory lookups
encounters a bit error, data frames may then be wrongly decrypted.
Risk of Fix:
Medium
Probability:
High
Feature:
Data Security
Function:
Encryption Group
Reported In Release:
FOS7.1.0
Closed with Code Change in Fabric OS v7.0.2c
This section lists the defects with Critical, High, and Medium Technical Severity closed with a code change as
of February 22, 2013 in FOS v7.0.2c
Defect ID:
DEFECT000431588
Technical Severity:
Medium
Summary:
FC8-64 in Slot 1 of DCX+ Faulting During Serdes Auto Tuning. The change also applies to DCX.
Symptom:
FC8-64 running in slot 1 of a DCX+ experienced blade fault due to excessive CRC w/good EOF
errors. Autotuning was attempted but blade fault occurred before an alternate value could be derived
to resolve the errors.
Probability:
Low
Feature:
8G ASIC Driver
Function:
C2 ASIC driver
Reported In Release:
FOS7.0.2
Service Request ID:
1087861
Defect ID:
DEFECT000441030
Technical Severity:
Medium
Summary:
SNMPv3 read/write USM user do not work in Fabric OS v7.0.2b
Symptom:
Unable to query any OID from a read/write snmpv3 user, but read only users are successful.
Workaround:
Use SNMPv1/V2. Also, SNMPv3 with users having Read Only (RO) permission can ontinue to
discover the switch and perform CAL/HTTP query and SNMP get operations.
Probability:
High
Feature:
FOS Software
Function:
SNMP
Reported In Release:
FOS7.0.2
