Troubleshooting

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Solution Upgrade to the latest HBA driver. This was corrected for Windows

 

 

 

2000 in 8.2.2.25 and later drivers. Windows 2003 driver 8.2.2.20 and

 

 

 

later already contain this correction.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Problem 4

 

EMC Primus case emc69308 — Direct-connect to EMC CLARiiON

 

 

 

CX200 reports incorrect queue full error messages. Even under light

 

 

 

I/O, a host may log a message noting that disk has reached a

 

 

 

queue-full state similar to the following in the Windows event

 

 

 

viewer:

Event ID: 11

Source: ql2300

Description: The driver detected a controller error on \Device\Scsi\ql2300x.

Data (words): offset 34 = F003001C [ErrorCode: Target device queue full].

Solution

Upgrade to the latest HBA driver. This was corrected in version

 

8.2.2.25 and later drivers.

 

 

Problem 5

Windows 2000 Hosts running less than SP4 could be susceptible to

 

data loss during LUN expansion operations.
