All my X6250s hang in ESX 3.5 U5 with SCSI "command error recovery failed"

After installing a pair of Virtualized Network Expansion Modules (X4238) in our Blade 6000 chassis, my ESX 3.5 Update 5 hosts will randomly fail with the error "scsi: device might be offline - command error recovery failed: host 5 channel 0 id 0 lun 0." This does not represent LUNS on our Sun/Qlogic FC hbas (PCIe dual 4Gig). The old Dell blades sharing the FC LUNs are not experiencing any SCSI errors whatsoever. It appears to me this is referring to the VNEM's SAS fabric, but we have no SAS drive modules in the chassis. Is the fact that it sees other hosts on this fabric causing issues? I'd like to disable the SAS fabric, but don't see a way to do this via the BIOS or VNEM ILOM. Do you think I'm barking up the wrong tree?
Thanks,
Charles

Yes, I had updated the blade firmware to the current provided (though I see reference to a newer version in the docs, but not at the download site). However, it seems related to interrupt sharing with the NXGE card/driver under ESX 3.5. I have an open case with Sun, and while they suspected a known issue with the aacraid driver (ESX350-201003402-BG), that had already been installed. They're now asking to create a case with VMware. In the meantime, I've tested a pair of our X6250s without the NXGE, installing the original quad port GigE NIC (Intel). Those hosts are very stable. It may not be the VNEM at all, but I'll keep you posted.

  • All the spreadsheets hangs on after update to Snow Leopard

    Hi, I updated a week ago my macbook to Snow Leopard and everything went fine (I supposed). Today I discovered that Microsoft Excel 2008 stopped working, it hangs if I try to create a new file. So I installed the latest openoffice but nothing worked: Calc, Draw etc etc
    Then I tried Numbers '09 but it's the same, after I choose a template the application hangs on, it's the same with Pages. I think that it's a font related problem, I did everything suggested on the forums:
    - Cleared font cache
    - Removed bad fonts
    - Reboot in safe mode (the same!)
    - Creating a new account (same problems!)
    - Used FontNuke and Yasu to clear temporary files
    I don't know what I can do, I don't want to reinstall from scratch my system in this moment but I need this applications!
    Thank you for helping me,
    Matteo

    I updated to SL with the CD and then I used the Apple Software Update. I hope that I don't need to reinstall the OS again,
    thank you for your answer,

  • LabView (8.2) hangs when using I/O operations with traditiona​l NI-DAQ 7.4.4 after aborting LabView program

    Hello!
    We have the following problem:
    LabView (8.2) hangs when using I/O operations with traditional NI-DAQ 7.4.4 after aborting LabView program
    We freshly installed LabView 8.2 (2006) and NI-DAQ 7.4.4 on a PC running Windows XP (Service Pack 3). We built a larger vi that remotely controls a traditional NI-DAQ card (AT-AO-10) on a second PC via NI-VISA 5.0.3. We were successfully running this program until a power failure caused the first computer to crash. After this crash we were unable to start the program again: LabView freezes while loading the vi. LabView itself can be started but freezes when adding I/O operations from the NI-DAQ palette to a block diagram.
    We have tried to re-install NI-DAQ 7.4.4, but it did not help. We then re-installed all NI software, but still no improvement. In the end we decided to reinstall ALL software, first Windows XP, then LabView and finally NI-DAQ 7.4.4. This worked. However, after a few days of running the program we had to abort LabView via Windows Task manager and afterward we again experienced the same problem as before: LabView freezes when loading the program.
    Obviously, we cannot afford to reinstall Windows every time. Are there any known Windows XP / NI-DAQ issues that might cause the freezing of LabView? We would be very grateful for any idea.
    Best regards,
    Matthias

    Hello Sprice,
    Browse the shipping examples according to “Directory Structure” and then select
    DAQ to find the Traditional DAQ examples. 
    There a lot of examples that are written for counters (Counter >>
    daq-stc.llb >> Count Edges (DAQ-STC).vi). 
    What kind of signals are your photons creating?  Are they TTL compatible at a certain
    frequency?  You don’t care about overwriting
    your buffer?

    How To Fix Ntdll.dll Errors
    Try the below solutions one at a time.
    * Unplug removable devices
    * Restart your computer. The ntdll.dll error you're receiving could be due to a one-time, temporary issue and a simple reboot may resolve the problem completely.
    * Reinstall the program if the ntdll.dll error only displays when you use a specific program.
    **If the software program has any updates or service packs available, install them too. The software's programmers may have identified an issue with the program that caused the ntdll.dll error and then issued a patch for it.
    **Note: Third party software programs that have been installed on your computer are almost always the cause of ntdll.dll errors. The remainder of these troubleshooting steps resolve ntdll.dll issues only rarely.
    * Check the Windows service pack level you're running and then check Microsoft's support site to see if there is a more recent service pack available for installation. Some issues that caused ntdll.dll errors have been corrected in these service packs from Microsoft.
    * Selectively disable Internet Explorer add-ons. If your ntdll.dll error is displaying when you start, run, or close Internet Explorer, an add-on may be causing the problem. Disabling each add-on, one by one, will determine which add-on is the culprit (if any).
    **Note: As a workaround, assuming the ntdll.dll error really is Internet Explorer related, install and use a competing browser like Firefox.
    * Rename the NLSPATH system variable. If your Windows system does not have this environment variable, skip this step.
    **Note: This is a troubleshooting step for this issue only. Be sure to set this path back to its original name if this does not resolve the ntdll.dll issue.
    * Disable Data Execution Prevention for Explorer.exe. As in the previous step, this is for troubleshooting the ntdll.dll issue only. If this doesn't resolve the problem, return the Data Execution Prevention settings to their previous settings.
    * Update drivers for any hardware in your computer where updated drivers are available. Outdated drivers sometimes cause ntdll.dll errors.
    * Test your memory for damage. If you're receiving ntdll.dll messages, one possible cause could be a bad memory module in your system. Testing your memory will either identify a problem or clear your RAM of any responsibility.
    * Replace your memory if it fails any of your tests.
    * Ntdll.dll errors could occur if you have an Iomega Zip drive on the same IDE cable as the hard drive inside your computer. If so, move the Zip drive to a dedicated IDE controller.
    * Replace the IDE cable connecting the hard drive to the motherboard. If this cable is damaged or malfunctioning, one symptom could be the ntdll.dll error you're seeing.
    * Repair your installation of Windows. If individual software reinstallations fail to resolve the problem, a repair installation of Windows will replace the ntdll.dll file.
    * Perform a clean installation of Windows. A clean installation will completely remove Windows from your PC and install it again from scratch. I don't recommend this option unless you've exhausted all previous troubleshooting ideas and you're comfortable that the ntdll.dll error is not caused by a single program (Step #2).
    **Note: If a single program or plugin is causing the ntdll.dll error, reinstalling Windows and then reinstalling all of the same software may lead you right back to the same ntdll.dll error.
    * While extremely rare, if everything else has failed, including the clean installation from the last step, you could be dealing with a hardware issue with your hard drive.
    **If so, replace the hard drive and then perform a new installation of Windows.

  • AME - Unknown Error encoding failed/freeze/hangs h.264

    Hi Guys,
    I am using Premiere  Pro CS (6.0.3) update. I have been working on Premiere , After Effects  and AME for at least 1 year. I bought Adobe Production Premium Box. Usually I use footage from Canon 5d and  GOPRO 2 and 3. Lately, longer video have been  crashing after 10 min  when rendering to H.264 - mov or just h.246 in 1080p 25fps (both using AME and Direct Export in Premiere). I  never had this problem before with longer videos (10 min long and more). I tried different source paths, no effects, frame blending, turn of Mercury Playback engine.
    Messages:Unknown Error Encoding failed - if using AME (sheep sound)
    Or: Freeze - the program does not repond and I have to close it
    Using direct premiere export - freezes or just stands still during rended/hangs.
    MXF, loosles AVI seems fine.
    I tried different projects and all formats. I checked CPU temp and it is max 60C.
    I lost all hope. Is it hardware?
    Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit
    MB Asus m4a785t evo
    AMD Phenom II x4 955BE
    Nvidia GTX 580 DCII (Cuda)
    SSD - system (256GB)
    2 x hdd 7200 (2x500GB)
    Ps.  i used cache clean, mercury playback on/off, different GPU - still  crashes on H.264 (Youtube 1080, Vimeo 1080, Android Table 1080 25fps)
    Any tips?
    Arti

    That dreaded sheep!
    While I would still want more RAM for AE to operate off, I dont think that is the problem. The only other thing I persoanlly can suggest is that that is an installation error on AME.
    Uninstall all programs that use AME - Premiere, After Effects, Flash etc, restart yourt machine then reinstall.
    Then try again.

  • I followed all the directions to get Norton 360 to work with Firefox 8, but nothing works. I love Firefox, but if my Norton 360 won't work with it I'll be stuck with IE, which I do not like. Please Help Me!

    I followed all the directions to get Firefox 8 to work with my Norton 360, but nothing has worked. Is there anything else I can do? I didn't know there was an issue when I first upgraded to Firefox 8 so didn't choose the Norton plug ins immediately so I uninstalled Firefox hoping to be able to do it correctly when I Downloaded it again. Unfortunately it didn't ask me any thing regarding Norton so I went to Plug ins as directed to Enable Norton 360's plug ins, but none were listed.
    What can I do now? I LOVE Firefox! If we can't make it work I'll be stuck with Internet Explorer which I do not care for at all!
    I need to have Norton Security to protect my computer. Please help me find a solution to this problem ASAP.
    Thank you,

    Hi Susie, I use Norton 360 and have the latest Firefox 8 installed is working fine for me. Firefox 8 support for [http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-360/Firefox-8-Support-for-Norton-Toolbar/td-p/581640 Norton Toolbar] was released on Nov 8th. Install the appropriate add-ons based on the version of Norton 360 you're using (see official Norton link above). Hope this helps.

    i changed my sim on my iPhone n reconfigured iMessage, it configured with my number but when i sign in with my apple id it says username/password is wrong while in all other things like FaceTime, App Store it worked with the same id and password..
    can anyone help me to solve this issue

    i just opened my ipad, started my apple account/I.D. and realized I put the wrong e mail. I was having trouble correcting my I.D on the Ipad so I went to my laptop and make the proper changes/slash e mail address I wanted for my apple ID. I got back to my ipad and try to download an app I can't because I have to sign in my apple account and I can't because it still has the irrelivant I.D/email address..
    So, i did what you said.. went to setting>app store> tapped on my e mail.. it asked me to sign in (with my invalid emails address showing). I signed in with the password I had created. It said "incorrect".. I went to reset password. I reset password, tried to sign in and it says again "unvalid password".. this is getting irritating.  I have been asking and no one knows what to do.

  • I have a an iMac 27" and am trying to import some videos of a friends wedding into iMovie however one of the movies won't import. It doesn't say why or give any error message or codes. All of the other movies on the card download with out a problem.

    I have an iMac 27" and am trying to import some videos of a friends wedding into iMovie however one of the movies won't import. It doesn't say why or give any error message or codes.
    All of the other movies on the card download with out a problem. The movie in question is not 'corrupt' as you can watch it in iMovie direct from the SD card but as soon as you try to import it, it  just says 'error'. iIve tried moving the file to an external drive ( and other variations on this theme) then importing but have had no luck.
    Can anyone please help me.

    The mystery remains....
    Thanks for the pointers. The file type is .mts (a proprietry sony one).
    I have now found some video converter software (Wondershare and iSkysoft) at a cost. Either will convert this file for me into .mp4. This I can then import into iMovie without any problems. I've checked this on the trial versions and it worked well but without paying am left with a giant watermark in the video
    The mystery (which I still havent solved) is why did 20 other .mts files import fine and then this one not?
    If you could point me in the direction of some free .mts converter software that would be the cherry on the cake.
    Thanks

  • Try to add the ESX to n1kv it give the below error got (vim.fault.PlatformConfigFault) exception

    Hello i m sharing to the forum the discussion we had in fb about my issue with a host see below:
    Guys anyone saw this error when u try to add the ESX to n1kv it give the below error
    vDS operation failed on host esxXX, An error occurred during host configuration. got (vim.fault.PlatformConfigFault) exception
    on the esx it shows correct version of vem version

    I did try with the version Nexus1000v.4.2.1.SV2.1.1 and then with this is the latest version of cisco Nexus1000v.4.2.1.SV2.2.1a but shows same error
    maybe u guys saw it before
    - Robert Burns - Usually means the VSM doesn't have the appropriate VIB file for that version of ESX. You can simply manually install it using ESX CLI. You can pull down the appropriate VIB from VMware's site. Which version of ESX (Build) are you running?
    - ME - i think maybe is related to old config of old n1kv i tried add another host and it works but it doesn t show the same dvs switch name

    - Robert Burns - Are the two N1K's different versions? Likely yes. In that case your VSMs have the appropriate VIB for ONE version of VSM, but not the other.
    - ME - both have the same version

    Hi lustyln,
