Please see this kb, it was a popular known issue related to Brocade defect . I don't know your environment (switch etc) but give it a try.

Workaround is quite simple though, just bouncing off the LIFs.
::> net int modify -vserver <vserver_name> -lif <lif_name> -status-admin down
::> net int modify -vserver <vserver_name> -lif <lif_name> -status-admin up
