Symptoms

zxfrd may fail and restart after multiple failovers between blades in a single chassis.

Impact

zxfrd will create a core file and restart, picking up where it left off.

Conditions

DNS Express must be configured in a multi-blade chassis. If a blade transitions from active to backup to active states and the DNS Express (tmmdns.bin) database has been re-created while the blade was in backup status, zxfrd may fail when attempting to reference old data.

Workaround

None.

Fix Information

The cause of the failure is now addressed.
