P4500 Lefthand SAN

Hello All, 

I have a P4500 that keeps failing over every 30 mins or so since this morning. It first hung / fell over at around 4.30 am and was brought back up at around 9.30am. Since then, the array only stays up for around 30mins before doing the same again. I have manage to grab what logs i can, but nothing much stands out apart from a number of network port issues and 1 alert for a firmware issue.

Re: P4500 Lefthand SAN

Hi njd, 

You actually have a P4500 G2 system. I've seen a few of these where the NIC chip on the system board fails and causes these errors in the kernel log.

The only solution is to replace the system board. If you have a support contract, please open a support case at 1-800-633-3600.

Hi Thanks,

Yes we replaced the system board and all is ok once again :)
