Host stuck this message vmw_vaaip_cx loaded successfully

[RafaelGavilanes]

Hi,

Please your help, we have a CISCO UCS (with 4 nodes) with ESXi 6.7 (8169922) installed with a custom ISO. The boot time is very long and the host stuck in this message about 15 mins

vmw_vaaip_cx loaded successfully

We have some RDM's, is a normal behaviour or some configuration is wrong?

Waiting your comments

Regards

Rafael

Hi Rafael-

VMware Knowledge Base

If you are using RDMs for things like MSCS clustering, etc., make sure to mark them as reserved or it will take forever for the host to boot as you are seeing.

Thanks.

Hi,thanks, only applies for RDM's on MSCS? because we can use RDM for storage user files (like a file server) on standalone servers?

Hi Rafael-

Any RDMs.  I was just giving an example.
