ESX will eventually take a device offline if it's not consistently getting responses, resulting in constant generation of ABORT_TASKs. Again, it's a clear sign that you're having some manner of FC connectivity issues. > My friend who was also testing this > had virtually the same results (he also gets the frequent ABORT_TASK > messages). > > Feb 10 20:33:48 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Found referenced qla2xxx task_tag: 1167636 > Feb 10 20:33:48 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1167636 > Feb 10 20:34:07 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Found referenced qla2xxx task_tag: 1183520 > Feb 10 20:34:07 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1183520 > Feb 10 20:44:31 dracofiler kernel: Unknown VPD Code: 0xc9 > Feb 10 20:44:33 dracofiler kernel: Unknown VPD Code: 0xc9 > Feb 10 20:44:47 dracofiler kernel: Unknown VPD Code: 0xc9 > Feb 10 20:46:35 dracofiler kernel: MODE SENSE: unimplemented page/subpage: 0x1c/0x02 > Feb 10 20:49:18 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Found referenced qla2xxx task_tag: 1140928 > Feb 10 20:49:18 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1140928 > Feb 10 20:49:19 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Found referenced qla2xxx task_tag: 1209480 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_FUNCTION_COMPLETE for ref_tag: 1209480 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: Detected MISCOMPARE for addr: ffff88062b253000 buf: ffff88062b6e7c00 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: Target/iblock: Send MISCOMPARE check condition and sense > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: Detected MISCOMPARE for addr: ffff880624bac000 buf: ffff88062b6e7c00 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: Target/iblock: Send MISCOMPARE check condition and sense > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1216828 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187260 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187348 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187392 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187436 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187480 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187524 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187304 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187568 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187656 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187744 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187788 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187832 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1187920 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1188008 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1188052 > Feb 10 20:49:29 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1188096 > Feb 10 20:51:18 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Found referenced qla2xxx task_tag: 1202880 > Feb 10 20:51:18 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1202880 > Feb 10 20:51:18 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Found referenced qla2xxx task_tag: 1202968 > Feb 10 20:51:18 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1202968 > Feb 10 20:51:37 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Found referenced qla2xxx task_tag: 1204244 > Feb 10 20:51:37 dracofiler kernel: ABORT_TASK: Sending TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1204244 > Nothing out of the ordinary here on the target side. So let's start again with the basics. Please verify the: - qla2xxx firmware version you're using on the target side. - FC HBA vendor, model and firmware version on the ESX side. - The FC switch vendor, model and firmware version. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe target-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
