FNIC Abort errors on different hosts in a cluster

Hi,

While I examine the VMkwasrning log for a host, its showing this error.

Can anyone please explain why its happening ?

Is this something we need to take it serious ?

Thanks,

Vivek

Hi Vivek,

do you run ESXi on top of Cisco UCS? If yes, you should check the NICs, cabling, port error counter.

Yes, was it a Driver error. How can I pick out the exact problem.

Issue seems like the ESXi host having hard time aborting I/O and this is seen mostly on fnic/nfnic issues. And CISCO advises to upgrade the FNIC drivers to the latest.
