Director 2/140 Maintenance Port Baud Rate may be Set Incorrectly
The maintenance port is only used to set the IP address information in the
Director 2/140. Occasionally the maintenance port of the Director 2/140 may be
set at an incorrect baud rate. The expected baud rate is 115,200 bps, but the baud
rate may be set to 57,600 bps.
Workaround
If communication with the maintenance port of the Director 2/140 is not
established at a baud rate of 115,200 bps, change the baud rate of the serial
communication application being used (for example, HyperTerminal) to
57,600 bps, and retry establishing communication.
Downgrading Firmware in Director 2/140 may Cause Database Event
Downgrading a Director 2/140 from firmware version 05.01.00-24 to version
04.01.02-04 occasionally may cause event 021 (name server database invalid) or
event 061 (controller database invalid). These effects are temporary as the
databases recover on their own. There are no other impacts to these events when
downgrading firmware.
Upgrading Firmware in Director 2/64 may Time-out if Very Busy
When upgrading firmware on Director 2/64 which is very busy with fabric
operations, the firmware upgrade may time-out. If subsequent attempts fail with a
report of file transfer is already in progress, see workaround.
Workaround
If a firmware upgrade has timed out on Director 2/64 and subsequent attempts fail
with a report of file transfer is already in progress, issue an
IPL via the HAFM application to the director to clear the hung upgrade. Perform
the firmware upgrade at a time when the fibre channel fabric is not as busy. You an
also use the Embedded Web Server feature to download the firmware to the
director, which runs at a higher priority and is not affected by a busy fabric.
