HPE MSA 2050 Warning - Host link down. (port 2)

[NhatHaiMun]

Hi everybody,

Since a few days I get this in my event log:

Event:

Host link down. (port: 2)

EVENT ID:#B65213

EVENT CODE:112

EVENT SEVERITY:Warning

EVENT TIME:2019-11-27 13:08:19

Does anybody have an idea how this could be happening?

Have you checked the network connection between your MSA and the switch? Most probably it's caused by an faulty HBA/SFP.
What firmware is your MSA running on? If you rung the command show ports, do you see any degraded/faulty ports?

[SUBHAJIT KHANBARMAN_1]

You can check below commands,

show system

show ports detail

Mostly one controller Host port 2 link is down. If this is continuously down then you should check network connectivity between this Host port and Switch. If this is direct attach configuration then check Host HBA or NIC card as well. It's possible that SFP or HBA or NIC card issue.

Hope this helps!
