Release M.10.17The following is a known issue related to installation of Release M.10.17 software, which includes a required update to ROM version I.08.12.
When there is an active 10-GbE link in port 26 of the ProCurve 3400cl-24G switch, or port 50 of the ProCurve 3400cl-48G switch, there may be a problem with that link initializing following a software update into the required M.10.17 software version. For customers with a console connection to the switch during the boot process, there may also be a false report with one or more of the following messages:
This switch needs replacement during next scheduled downtime ? or,
Module selftest failure or,
Port [26 or 50] selftest failure. ?
Workarounds: If this is a mission-critical switch and the software is being updated remotely through a 10-GbE link in port 26 or 50, it is recommended that you have someone onsite with the switch able to directly communicate with the switch from another port or the console connection. The issue may be avoided by enabling the “fastboot” feature and using the “reload” command after updating to M.10.17 ( refer to “Install Recommendations for I.08.12 Boot ROM Update” on page 6)
If the problem persists, it may also be possible to re-initialize the link by administratively disabling and re-enabling both the affected port and the port that is directly connected to it. If those steps fail to resolve the problem, try disconnecting the media from the potentially affected port until after the switch is running M.10.17. The port should then initialize.
Fix: There is a fix associated with software version M.10.20. Once the switch has been updated to software version M.10.17, update to software version M.10.20 and reboot.
Note that M.10.10 does not have the same issue related to installation of Release M.10.17 software.
