S2600CWTS LSI Raid Controller Questions

June 14, 2015, 11:33 am

Hi folks:

 

I'm suddenly having problems with VMWare ESXi 6 on a S2600CWTS motherboard.  All was well for the first month or so after I had it running, but in the last two weeks I'm seeing errors in the VMWare event log saying that it lost access to the datastore which is on a RAID 5 array connected to the LSI onboard controller.  A couple of times the RAID controller had to rebuild one of the raid drives, but each time it was a different drive, which leads me to believe that the problem isn't a failing drive, but is rather an issue with the controller, or a software/driver issue with ESXi 6.  Also one time the controller took two drives offline, causing ESXi to crash.  The drives are Samsung 1tb SSD 850 Pro (MZ-7KE1T0BW).  After the rebuild, or bringing the drives back online through the RAID controller BIOS, everything worked fine and no data was lost, furthering my thought that the drives aren't the problem.  I've also been able to copy VMs off the system without problems and without causing timeout errors, so it doesn't appear that specific data areas on the drives are an issue. 

 

I'm not quite sure how to proceed at this point.  I've taken some of the more critical VMs off the server and put them back on the old one until I can get this figured out.  For now though can anyone direct me to where I can get the BIOS manual for the LSI controller, as I haven't tried to do an integrity check yet, and I don't want to fool with that until I have the manual in front of me and know what I'm doing.  I was able to bring the drives back online, and one time force a rebuild on a drive the controller had marked "Failed" without the manual, but it took me a while to figure out how to do it.  I haven't had any luck finding that BIOS manual on the Intel or LSI website.

 

Also, does anyone know if there is some software that I can add to ESXi 6 that would allow me to access the RAID controller's functions without having to bring ESXi down and do it from the BIOS screen?  Dell has some software vib's that you can install into ESXi that allows you access their RAID controller and do things like run an integrity check and do a hot swap without taking down the server.  I see the settings in the RAID controller BIOS for things like limiting the amount of resources consumed during an integrity check, which leads  to believe that their must be a way to do it without having the system down. 

 

Suggestions welcome. 

 

Thanks,

SS-4200e UPS shutdown time

Our SS-4200e recognizes our UPS (uninterrupted power supply) just fine, but it shuts down far too quickly. The UPS is large and will supply power for more than 20 minutes. How can I adjust the time that the server stays on before it begins the shutdown process? Right now it's only about two minutes.

 

Thanks

JBOD2312S2SP Power Supply Issue?

I have a JBOD2312S2SP Intel Raid Enclosure (Intel® Storage Systems JBOD Family) at my house and woke up to screaming fan noises.  Warning light was blinking and the console showed this:

 

ID = 206

SEQUENCE NUMBER = 164362

TIME = 29-06-2013 03:13:39

LOCALIZED MESSAGE = Controller ID:  0   Power supply cable removed on enclosure:   1      Power Supply   1

 

Note I only have one power supply so if the cable was removed not sure how it was still running.  Right after that warning received the below messages copied from the logs so the top one is the latest:


ID = 243
SEQUENCE NUMBER = 164371
TIME = 29-06-2013 03:13:44

TIME = 29-06-2013 03:13:40
LOCALIZED MESSAGE = Controller ID:  0   Fan speed changed on enclosure:   1  Fan       1

 

Last message until 6 minutes later I powered up a computer to remove in and shutdown the system.  Pulled the power plug, put it back in, powered everything up, and it's running right now without issue.  Thoughts?

 

Edit:  As a side note, the Intel Raid Web Console shows this drive cage with 2 power supplies.  Always did.  I only have one.  So not sure if that's just how many it can hold or if it's just not intelligent enough to detect the number of drives.

 

Thanks.

E5-2687w v3 - Exception Type 06 - Invalid Opcode Exception

July 28, 2015, 6:00 am

We are having an issue with all of our E5-2687w v3.  We currently have 11 HP DL360 gen9 in our datacenter.  Each with 2 E5-2687w v3.  They are booting from SAN, which is an EMC VNX5400.  They are connected via QLogic QLE2562 HBA.  Running Windows Server 2012R2.

 

This error occurs when I have more than 30 LUNS added to a storage group and both host bus adapters plugged in.  If I unplug one of the HBA's then the server will complete POST.  I can then plug the other HBA in and the server runs normally.  However if it reboots, with both HBA's plugged in and more than 30 LUNS attached.  Then the 'red screen' error will be presented.  Interestingly if I have less than 30 LUNS in a storage group the server will also boot normally.  However, that is not a workaround as I have over 60 LUNS in production right now.

 

All servers with this CPU will generate this error under the same circumstances noted above.

Any ideas how to avoid this error or what it means would be appreciated.

Noisy? 1600W Common Redundant Power Supply FXX1600PCRPS

August 13, 2014, 1:41 pm

Hello,

 

I am planning a build, but the configured chassis comes with an Intel 1600 watt power supply[see title]. Since the board is custom, this is the only power supply and chassis available. If I am wrong and you know of another one, please let me know.

 

I have been told by a custom computer builder that this particular power supply will be very loud. Note, I will not be utilizing all 1600 watts, and initially, about 700 watts, but I will be leaving this particular workstation to my alma mater when I die and they might utilize the entire 1600 watts.

 

Intel support told me that the PWM Offset can be set to 0 in the bios and that will significantly reduce the noise from the power supply.

 

Remember, this is the ONLY chassis system available for this particular board. Sadly, the particular Intel workstation chassis only comes with a 1600 Watt power supply.

 

Anyhow, the builder kind of made it seem that the PSU will be uncomfortably loud in my living room. The Intel person said it would not likely be loud with that adjustment and the fact that I would not be operating at full load.

 

I have no experience with such a power supply. Will it be loud?

 

Thanks!

Is my motherboard RAM slot defective?

August 5, 2015, 7:51 am

I have Intel S1200V3RPS motherboard. I bought it in September 2014 and was using 2x8GB RAMs in the first two slots till now. Last week, I decided to upgrade RAM on my server and bought two additional RAM sticks of the same model and make by the same company (Kingston). But the additional two slots do not appear to be working.

 

Following things work:

1) Two old sticks in slots 1 & 2 work fine.

2) Two new sticks in slots 1 & 2 work fine.

3) One old and one new stick in slots 1 & 2 work fine.

4) Each of the 4 sticks work individually in either slot 1 or slot 2.

From above 4 points, it appears that the RAM sticks are fine and they are compatible with each other.

 

Now, if I put any stick in slot 3 or 4 (irrespective of whether there are any sticks in slots 1 & 2), the computer refuses to start. When I press the power button, there are 3 beeps and then nothing happens. Now, I wonder if slots 3 and 4 on the motherboard are bad. This is an assembled server and I have made the wire connections. Can somebody tell me if I may have missed some wire connections so that RAM slots 3 & 4 are not working? Any other troubleshooting will also help.

 

I am using Intel Xeon 1230v3 processor and Kingston KVR16LE11/8i RAM modules.

 

(I have contacted Intel Customer Support and their only option is to send the product to their service center where they would check the problem and send a replacement. But this solution does not work for me as I have only one server and the solution of Intel will mean downtime of atleast 3 weeks.)

1-wire temperature sensor

Hello, I'm working with Intel Server Board S1200RPM. I want to add a temperature sensor (Dallas DS18S20) to the front panel SSI connector. It appears in the specs (in the 24-pin EEB SSI connector pin-out): "1-wire temperature sensor", so I think it must be compatible. The sensor is listed in the SDR as "Front Panel Temperature" but I don't get any reading. Is there some other thing that I should take into account?

Thanks in advance.

Can not deassert "Physical Scrty" event

Hello,

 

After I unplugged two NIC-cables on GZ2600 platform the "Physical Scrty" was triggered. I dont need these phyiscal links anymore so I dont need these events asserted

I have no idea how I can deassert them. I tried manually deassert these events:

 

# ipmitool event "Physical Scrty" "System unplugged from LAN" deassert

Finding sensor Physical Scrty... ok

0 |  Pre-Init  |0000000000| Physical Security #0x04 | System unplugged from LAN | Deasserted

 

But the sensor is still alive (0x1000 <- bitmask should be zero)

 

# ipmitool sensor |grep 'Phy'

Physical Scrty   | 0x0        | discrete   | 0x1000| na        | na        | na        | na        | na        | na

 

 

SEL shows assert/deassert events though

 

 

Web interface for bmc is poor. I can not find corresponding button to reset the sensor there

 

Could you please advise me how can I get rid of this event ?

 

 

 

Here is my BMC info:

 

Device ID             : 33
Device Revision       : 1
Firmware Revision     : 1.20
IPMI Version          : 2.0
Manufacturer ID       : 343

Raid controller rs3wc080 won't start

September 1, 2014, 11:49 am

I Purchased a rs3wc080 to be able to ad a lot of sas disks to my pc. It is a regular machine with Asus P9x79 mobo and i7 cpu running win7 pro x64.

The card worked out of the box, but during copy jobs of some size (30+ minutes) it would cause BSOD. After a while it would also occationally fail to start with windows, with error code 10 "this device cannot start".

 

I have flashed the card and the mobo with the latest firmware and updated win drivers but the problem was just getting worse. I've also removed the card, tried it with no disks attached, down stepped the pcie slot to gen 1 and 2. Downgraded firmware. Upgraded again. Using both console and efi. All with success, but without solving the problem. Currently the virtual disks are presented to the mobo bios, and all is fine in the raid controller bios. But in windows the disks don't show, and in device manager the card shows up with error 10 cannot start.

I even tested the card in my old pc, which has the older x48 chipset, and all worked fine even under hard load with robocopy. Since it worked in my old machine, which is running win7, I figured maybe my os installation was to blame. So I reinstalled windows, downloaded the latest driver for the card from Intel, and... Error 10...!!!!

 

Any suggestions? I was thinkng of returning the card as faulty, but since it works fine in my other pcs (I've tried three now with success) I guess it actually works. Just not in the machine I need to use...

Intel® Server System R2312WTTYS and network adapters

Hi,

we are thinking about buying R2312WTTYS to forward network traffic. What we need is:

  • two 10GbE RJ45 interfeces - on the board (mainboard have two)
  • two 10GbE SFP+ interfaces with capability of connecting in range 10KM ( SMF LR )
  • two 40GbE interfaces, cabling doesn't matter

 

After searching the web we have found solutions:

  • Intel® Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X520-LR1 with Moduł SFP+ E10GSFPLR - unfortunately i don't know if it is compatible with R2312WTTYS
  • Intel I/O Module 10GbE AXX10GBNIAIOM - unfortunately here i can't find any information about compatibility of SFP modules, especially SMF LR (Long Range) modules


For the 40GbE interfaces there wasn't a problem, we found:

  • I/O module  XL710-QDA2 AXX2P40FRTIOM
  • and network card XL710QDA2 40Gb/s 2xQSFP

 

Maybe someone have similar problem and can help?
