All,
We're having random PSOD's on a random selection of 48 blades we have in 2 islands of 24 each. We have 2 sides, 1 on 5.0 and 1 on 5.1. Vmware suggested a set of patches, which caused the vm's on at least one of the blades to hang(actually 2 of the 6 we upgraded I believe). Several other blades the vm's appear to be fine after the patches. We've upgraded server side firmware and software drivers, to no avail. We're losing a host about every 3 days to PSOD, and those might HA 80 vm's off or 15...really no pattern (loaded or near empty doesn't matter). Anybody having similar issues?
Current layout of 1 side (we'll look at it so we don't have too many variables).
e5-26900
256GB ram
connected via 2.1 ucs environment to IBM storwize v7000
san-boot
esxi 5.1.0 build 1117900
We're considering going to the vmware build and hand installing drivers at this point....if the native install doesn't have everything required.
