Description

An OSMS (Open Systems Management Server) memory

leak caused ISL Segmentation in the fabric

Director 2/64 had Event 411 Firmware Faults occurring

on both CTPs due to stalled CTP communications.

Director 2/64 had CTP Event 411 (00000052) faults

occurring on both CTP's due to issue reading certain SPF

parameters.

In a FICON environment, lone Unit check status was

presented after Command Response was sent.

Command line interface (CLI) SSH connections timed out

too frequently

Power On Monitoring (POM) feature changed to disable

POM by default and provide CLI commands to enable

and disable POM support.

Enhancements

This section describes enhancements in this release since the release of firmware version 09.07.02.

Frame Redirection

Frame Redirection (FR) is now supported on M-series switches to enable the use of advanced features

like Brocade's Storage Application Services in mixed M-series and B-series switch environments. FR

enables customers to easily utilize these capabilities by simply configuring special FR zones, which

requires no changes to attached hosts or devices. Firmware 09.08.xx and later supports FR zones in

McDATA Fabric Mode only when used with B-series switches in Interopmode 2.

Predictive Optics Monitoring (POM)

In firmware 09.08.xx or later , the predictive optics monitoring feature is turned off (disabled) by

default. Consequently, while upgrading from firmware 09.07.xx or earlier to 09.08.xx or later, POM

will be in disabled state by default. It can be enabled/disabled using the following new command:

perf AFD POM <enabledstate>

Example: perf AFD POM enable turns the feature ON.

When POM is disabled, it will not take any action on the affected port, including the posting of events

515/516 in event log. In Embedded Web Server, the health status will show noinfo and the optics

parameters cannot be read. In the CLI, the health status of the optic will show noinfo but the parameter

values can be read.

When the POM feature is enabled and any optic is generating a Tx power/Bias Current alarm

condition, the switch logs an event 516 and event 514 and fail the port after 2 hours. For other optics

parameters (Rx Power, Supply Voltage, Temp), the system will log event 516 but will not fail the port.
