[ESXI: usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci]

I went to "vmkernel.log file:  https://"IPAddressOfESXiHost"/host" and it does show the resets also for 6rc6, but not with 6b12.  Thanks for the info that its happening on you X10 MB's, at least i know its not tied to just the X9SCM. That should make a larger pool of people that may see this trbl and narrow down the cause.

 

uldise - thanks for verifying 6b15 on the X9SCM. Have you tried any of the 6RC series on either board yet?

 

I also found an old(2009) thread http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=4877.msg45327#msg45327 which recommended:

echo 64 >/sys/block/sdX/device/max_sectors

but that did nothing for me. I do think its just a simple setting like that causing it, but I just don't know enough about it.

[ESXI: usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci]

I am looking for some help on a trouble I am getting since going from 6-beta-12 to 6rc4. I've also tried rc5+rc6 with same results.

 

from syslog:

Jun 12 18:53:44 Tower kernel: usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci

Jun 12 18:53:44 Tower kernel: sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] 15633408 512-byte logical blocks: (8.00 GB/7.45 GiB)

this keeps repeating every 30-60seconds and doesnt stop.

 

I was running ESXI 5.5, and have also tried on ESXI 6.0 with same results.

 

I want to point the finger at UnRaid RC's(new 4.0.x kernel) but if I boot Unraid to bare metal(Supermicro X9SCM-IIF) I dont see the resets. I have seen this mentioned in a couple of threads but did not see any definite fix. 1 person changed their flash drives and it went away. I have 3 sandisk cruzer blades with pro keys and all three do it. just for a test i also tried a Sandisk fit with trial key and same results. I am getting this before the array is even started.

 

I can go back and get a syslog for 6b12 if that helps.

Is there a place to download all the different versions to test b14-15+rc1-3?

 

To narrow this down, can anyone with an X9SCM MB + ESXI let me know if they see this trouble or not. If not what type of setup do you have?

 

Thanks

-Dave

 

EDIT: A workaround for this trouble is to use a USB card reader instead of a USB Flash drive.
