Re: OA firmware upgrade disrupts fibre channel
Interestingly another enclosure in the same stack had no issues. Of note is the fact that the two affected enclosures are both OA hardware rev A1. None of our other enclosures have A1 rev OA's in both slots, although one enclosure has a rev A1 in the secondary slot.
Sarah: Regarding your production enclosure, I would try to upgrade it sooner rather than later. The reason for our 2.25 upgrade was an iLO bug that caused the OA's in the two aforementioned enclosures to spontaneously reboot, which in turn caused the FC issue. This bug is supposedly fixed in 2.25.
Of course I should point out that we haven't yet upgraded the iLO of the second affected enclosure, because when we upgraded the first enclosure to 2.25, the problem happened AGAIN. :P

Re: OA firmware upgrade disrupts fibre channel
Yes, I suspect HP is aware that our cases are related, as they told us that they don't know what's going on yet but that they knew of one other customer who was affected.
I know you're using the Brocade 4/24 switches, can you tell me what software version you're running on the problem enclosure(s)? We're at 5.3.0a right now, and I'm wondering if that might be a factor. Enclosures at another datacenter are running 6.1.0a and I don't believe they've been affected by this issue.

Re: OA firmware upgrade disrupts fibre channel
Can you try updating your SAN Firmware to 6.1.0 and check do you see the problem.
I think you can't go straight to 6.1.0 you may need to update to 6.0.1a before.
SAN Firmware may be the Problem.

Re: OA firmware upgrade disrupts fibre channel
I then upgraded to 6.0.1a and repeated the test. No link flaps.
