Error
The be2iscsi driver ignored a
configuration entry since the entry
was invalid.
Check the registry configuration for
any recent entries added for driver
parameters. The invalid entry must be
removed or corrected.
Error
The be2iscsi driver failed to load due
to memory allocation failure.
This failure occurred due to a failed
memory allocation in the driver. Check
low memory conditions.
Error
The be2iscsi driver failed to load
because initialization failed during
normal boot-up.
This failure may be due to the
firmware not being present or running
currently. This failure may also
indicate a hardware problem.
Error
An internal API failed in be2iscsi driver
during initialization.
This failure may indicate a low
memory condition.
Error
There was an Unrecoverable Error
detected by the be2iscsi driver.
Following this error log entry, the next
3 entries will indicate the error codes.
This may be due to hardware errors or
due to unhandled exceptions in the
hardware or firmware.
Error
The be2iscsi driver failed an IOCTL
request since the number of scatter
gather elements required for the
IOCTL buffer exceeded the adapter’s
firmware limit. Following this error log
entry, the next entry will indicate the
IOCTL opcode and the payload length
requested.
This error may indicate an incorrect
configuration option for the iSCSI
driver. It may also indicate a low
memory condition.
Error
The be2iscsi driver detected an error
during offloading the iSCSI connection.
The operation will be retried again.
Following this error log entry, the next
entry will indicate the session handle
and the firmware error code.
This may indicate a target is in error or
may point to transient network
connectivity issues. It may also
indicate a firmware error.
Error
The be2iscsi driver did not receive an
iSCSI command window update up to
25 seconds during I/O operations.
Following this error log entry, the next
entry will indicate the session handle
where this error occurred. The
be2iscsi driver will trigger a session
recovery on the session and continue.
Check for any errors reported at the
target. The iSCSI initiator is only
supported with certified targets.
Check for the latest software at the
target vendor’s website. Check for the
latest software at the Emulex website.
If the above fails, contact Emulex
technical support.
Warning
The be2iscsi driver received an invalid
iSCSI Command Sequence Number
update from the target. Following this
error log entry, the next three entries
will indicate the session handle and
the iSCSI parameters - MaxCmdSN and
ExpCmdSN respectively.
Check for any errors reported at the
target. The iSCSI initiator is only
supported with certified targets.
Check for the latest software at the
target vendor’s website. Check for the
latest software at the Emulex website.
If the above fails, contact Emulex
technical support.
