PR 96584

PR 98768
If hardware configuration changes are introduced to an OS6800/6850 stack without first ensuring that the
Primary software configuration is certified, it is possible to create an endless synchronization cycle.
Workaround: Before making any hardware configuration changes ensure that the Primary is certified.
Run the copy working certified flash-syncro command before making hardware configuration changes.
PR 98956
An OS6850 supports only single point of failure. Removing multiple stacking cables will introduce multi-
ple points of failure from which the system may not recover.
Workaround: Do not remove multiple stacking cables at the same time.
PR 100244
Installing 6.1.3.R01 images on an OmniSwitch 6800 that is running 5.3.1.R02 code returns an error.
Workaround: The code base has changed significantly from 5.3.1 to 6.1.2. This is especially true of
Jos.img. So the install from 5.3.1 will not be able to support them. Reboot the 6.1.2 images and then do
the install.
PR 100825
On an OS9000, if both CMMs are removed from the chassis, Layer 2 local (local to the NI) traffic with
learned MACs is switched.
Workaround: Insert at least one CMM into the switch to reset the NIs.
PR 103625
Pulling all the cable simultaneously on a stack of 8 OS6850's causes problem.
Workaround: When pulling the cable, the system will start its topology change. Pull the cable one by one
during the topology change will lose the topology information. Try to pull the cable slowly to avoid this
problem.
