5. The following is a description of a problem that occurs with the Brocade 2800 switch. It is not a problem
with the A6795A adapter or software. We document it here for A6795A customers who use Brocade
switches in Fabric mode in a Public Loop topology.
Problem: In Fabric mode, when multiple hosts are connected on the same switch using a hub (especially
two hosts), FLOGI gets timed out when a host changes from Point-to-Point to a Loop topology. This
problem occurs with Fabric mode only and not with QuickLoop.
Fix: Use the telnet command, portCfgLport, to lock the port in loop mode (L_Port) when multiple hosts
or targets are connected on a single switch port. This command insures that nport_id addresses will not
change during temporary transitions and will not cause any subsequent FLOGI time-outs. This problem
is fixed in Brocade firmware revision V2.1.9d and later releases.
The portCfgLport command is clearly documented in the Brocade release notes for V2.1.9d and in the
Brocade Man pages.
Dependencies
The following dependencies are not A6795A adapter problems, but you may encounter them during
installation or when booting the system. Therefore, they are listed as dependencies.
You may see the following SD (Software Distributor) warnings and errors when you install the A6795A
software using swinstall. These messages are related only to SD. They do not apply to the A6795A Tachyon
XL2 product. This problem will be fixed in a later version of SD.

The following problem is related to the HP-UX kernel boot loader:
If a host on the loop is booting, and another host on the same loop does an ioscan, the booting host may
experience a panic. The host will eventually come up when it tries to boot again.
