Controller X on server X is inoperable. Reason: CIMC didn't detect storage controller

This issue occurs because the active slot firmware on the NVMe SSD reverts to the firmware present on the read-only slot. If the firmware on the read only slot does not support Out-Of-Band, this NVMe is not reported in the Out-Of-Band inventory stage with the following message: "Controller X on server X is inoperable. Reason: CIMC didn't detect storage controller".

Foreign configuration import fails when a drive group is set to transport ready state and a partial set of drives are removed from the system and re-inserted back into the same system, followed by a system reboot.

On the 3260 server, the DHSP in transport ready state, after a server reboot, recognizes the DHSP as a foreign configuration.

This could occur when drive groups with DHSP are set to transport ready state, and the system reboots with the drives still connected.

On the 3260 server, the amber LED light switches on when the SSD boot drive in the rear is not present.

Communication Lost on enclosure X.

A similar error message is also seen in the storage log, in the standalone Cisco IMC web UI.

   ~ # esxcli storage core adapter list: HBA Name Driver Link State UID Description -------- ------- ----------- ---------- ----------------------------------------------- vmhba0 ahci link-n/a sata.vmhba0 Intel Corporation Patsburg 6 Port SATA AHCI .. vmhba1 mpt3sas link-n/a sas.xxxxxxx LSI / Symbios Logic SAS3008 PCI-Express .. vmhba32 ahci link-n/a sata.vmhba32 Intel Corporation Patsburg 6 Port SATA AHCI .. vmhba33 ahci link-n/a sata.vmhba33 Intel Corporation Patsburg 6 Port SATA AHCI .. vmhba34 ahci link-n/a sata.vmhba34 Intel Corporation Patsburg 6 Port SATA AHCI .. vmhba35 ahci link-n/a sata.vmhba35 Intel Corporation Patsburg 6 Port SATA AHCI .. vmhba36 ahci link-n/a sata.vmhba36 Intel Corporation Patsburg 6 Port SATA AHCI ..

4. If the driver name is still listed as lsi-msgpt3 for the above command, try removing (instead of disabling) lsi-msgpt3 using the following command: #esxcli software vib remove ?n lsi-msgpt3

5. Restart the system.

Perform one of the following: A hotfix is available for Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012. Run this fix in the Windows OS image and then perform iSCSI installs. For more information on the fix, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2822241 OR Complete the following steps

1. Un-install the drivers for the device which is showing yellow bang without deleting the device.

2. Re-install the drivers.

3. Restart the server.

Using the Web UI, complete these steps to upgrade the chassis firmware:

1. In the Navigation pane, click the Server tab.

2. On the Server tab, click Summary.

3. In the Actions area, click Power Off Server.

4. Click OK to power off the server and updates the system firmware.

Using the CLI, complete these steps to upgrade the chassis firmware:

1. Server# scope chassis

2. Server /chassis # scope firmware

3. Server /chassis/firmware # show detail: Firmware update required on some components, please run update-all (under chassis/firmware scope).

4. Server /chassis/firmware # update-all

To resolve this issue, complete these steps:

1. Boot to Shell.

2. Determine fsxx (xx is where ESX is installed. It will be typically 0 i.e fs0:) This can be verified by using fsxx:\EFI\Boot\BOOTX64.EFI command.

3. To get the current list of EFI Boot options use, bcfg boot dump command.

   Note	Save the last boot number for further use.

4. Use the following command to add new Boot Option at position LAST_BOOT_NO + 1. Last parameter in quotes can be any description for this new Boot Option. This is displayed during BIOS F6 menu - bcfg boot add LAST_BOOT_NO + 1 fsxx:\EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI "UEFI: ESXi"

5. Make the newly created Boot Option for ESX as the first by using bcfg boot mv LAST_BOOT_NO + 4 1 command.

SD card partition sizes appear as trash values for SCU,HUU and drivers during downgrade.

Upgrade to release 1.5(4x) and create a single partition, and then downgrade to a prior release. The partition sizes then appear to be 2097151 MB.

Changing multiple configuration with Port parameter fails from CIMC configuration only.

Complete the following steps:

1. Set the mode to Dedicated and the redundancy to None.

2. Save the changes to the system.

3. Set the auto-negotiation field to Yes.

In the transition from 4 partition configuration to a single partition, only configuration details are modified. Data on the SD remains intact. So after migrating to a single partition (HV), the HV partition will retain SCU data only if SCU has a valid file system during configuration migration.

After migrating to a single partition (HV) configuration, format and install the required OS on the HV partition.

Occasionally after a CIMC upgrade, one may see an error dialog box "Error: Unexpected error" in Web UI on main page upon the very first login. The Storage data may also be blank or invalid. Sometimes occurs during the very first login after a CIMC upgrade. It may be related to upgrade from 1.4x to 1.5.

Logging out and back in will fix it, but probably just because it takes time; therefore, just waiting a few minutes and refreshing the WebUI may fix the problem, also.

CIMC limits the configurable vNICs, and usNICs to 229.

None. The remaining vNICs are reserved for the internal adapter usage. Of these remaining vNICs, 4 are mandatory- 2 eNICss, and 2 fNICs. When you configure 16 vNICs (including the 2 mandatory eNICs), you are left with 229-2(fNICs)-16(eNICs)= 211 usNICs.

The battery is in a degraded state because it requires a manual (user initiated) relearn cycle.This is required of batteries that have been in use for over 1 year to accurately measure the battery's remaining capacity.

A manual (deep cycle) relearn must be started by the user. This can be done via the MegaCLI utility or from the Storage tab of the server CIMC. A relearn can take several hours and up to a day to complete. It the battery still has sufficient capacity after the relearn is complete, it will go to optimal state and the VDs will switch back to WriteBack mode if that is how they configured prior to the relearn.

The WebUI DIMM "Operability" field in the memory inventory does not indicate failed DIMMs correctly.

The issue is observed only in the memory inventory reported by the WebUI. The BIOS reports the DIMM status properly in the BIOS Setup. So, if WebUI shows any DIMM as Inoperable, please check the status of all DIMMs on all the memory risers at Advanced -> Memory Configuration page of the BIOS Setup to get the correct status on the DIMMs.
