[f-nsp] Module Reset Due to TM Errors?

Brocade TAC suggested a software upgrade from version 4.0.00ca to at  
least 4.0.00e. I don't know if you are allowed to see tickets opened  
by my company's account, but the TAC case number is #00246154 and was  
closed on Mar 23, 2010. In the case, the TAC engineer referenced Bug  
ID 108251.

I hope this helps and if you'd like a "dump" of our ticket please let  
me know and I'll forward it unicast. :D
