Dell Technologies recommends applying this update during your next scheduled update cycle. The update contains changes to maintain overall system health. It ensures that the system software remains current and compatible with other system modules (firmware, BIOS, drivers, and software) and may include other new features.
After upgrading to 6.3.0.9, the switch interfaces may go to D-Down state instead of STP BLK state when loop detected in the network. So we recommend to disable "loop-protection" feature globally and under all switch interfaces using the command "no keepalive" and save configuration. Also configure err-disable recovery feature by using the commands "err-disable recovery cause all" and "err-disable recovery interval 30" globally to recover the ports from D-Down state. If desired user can disable the err-disable recovery feature after ports are recovered from D-Down state by using the command "no err-disable recovery cause all"
