Hello community!
I am new to this blog, I ask a little question, I hope you can help me. Strangely after placing a network board on my ESXi server, it soon started to have PSOD, it is likely that the fault is caused by the new hardware on my server but I would like to confirm it with your help
ESXi
Thanks!
For PSOD situations, you must collect dump files and for doing this, I explain it here: What is the VMKernel Core Dump - Part I
But if you want to check ESXi log files, beside the vmkernel.log you must check vmksummary.log too. (And also please check and separate time duration the failure has been occured to investigate the issue correctly)
If there is a screenshot of PSOD, can you send it?
When I review log files, I see the following error. Which ilo version do you use? The following KB addresses this problem.
OR
I don't know what ilo version you are using, but I don't say anything, but the error "LINT1 / NMI" is usually caused by interrupt remapper functionality. But your ESXi version is very new and the hardware is Gen9. Therefore, I think that one of the two links above will solve your problem.

Good day!.
Thanks for the prompt response. The ILO version is 2.10, attached evidence. I fulfill the requirements.
I found this KB https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/56357 But I'm not sure if this KB is the right solution.

I think you gave me the wrong information. You wrote that you are using Gen 9, but the server you're showing is Gen 8. Gen 8 servers can get this PSOD from LINT1 / NMI error.
Can you write the exact ESXi version you used? With build number. I also see that the firmware versions are very old. You need to do the firmware update.
Your System ROM version looks very old (2016). In 2016, the ESXi 6.7 was not even released
If you want ESXi to run stably, bios and firmware updates must be up to date. HPE can clearly tell you the cause of this problem, but firmware update will certainly solve the problem.
