Bug 20359909 from SR 3-10124415297

Goal

3.62.108 Microcode Changes

Solution

Note: this code was removed from distirbutions due to problems found. 2 problems were identified with this code version:

1) Drive interface code fails if the drive is running under and Emulex HBA,

2) RTDs fail to write at blockid 0 in ALP mode

FSC Synopsis:

505C Fix SNO 505C for some 505C errors with new servo code change.

3F21 Enhancement to prohibit loads on a drive that has logged excessively high SOTs on multiple successive R/W mounts.

None VSM-6 RTD performance improvement by eliminating extra Command Responses during write transfers. Replaces Special Build RA61.301.

3780 Fix for SNO 3780 seen at multiple sites with 1.61.301 code.

Several Upgrade Qlogic Code to 7.03.00

379C Fix for SDP reported FSC 379c running w 1.61.301 code.

None Fix for an STA site reported T10KC drive hang running Media Validation. Analysis of the dump showed the drive hung after encountering a prior write perm on the customer tape and therefore no EOD mark. Now, rather than hang the drive will clearly report a Media Validation failure.

None Change where any/all STA mounts trying to rebuild a MIR on a legacy written tape (T10KA/B format tapes) on a T10KC drive - The code will now pass DSC = 0x15 along with this new FSC = 40D3.

None Customer requested that 10KC drives not reset the Ethernet hardware when zero packets have been received in 60 sec. This code puts in a new VOP switch option to turn these resets OFF. Factory default is on because that’s the way it has always been. This replaces Special Build RB361101.

None Fix for OAM error message CBR9103I. This replaces Special Build RD361101.

None Upgrade TTI version to 5.50 level. This change supports the new library trays (Vail & Keystone) where 18 character tray serial numbers comes into play. STA customers may temporarily need RA32108 special code until STA changes support TTI 5.50.

None Remove SSL v3.0 for CVE-2014-3566, Poodle Vulnerability.
