Hi,
have here a few ESXi hosts with redundancy across 2 stack units (iSCSI plus Etherchannel for non iSCSI).
The stack rebooted a lot of times as I started a firmware download from ftp.dell.com via the lifecycle manager.
Even the master unit was not pingable. Therefor the SAN gave up and the VMs too (had to restore 6 VMs from backup).
Have issues with the boxes since 2 years. Firmware is up-to-date (as always in the past).
Another problem occurred later on, the Etherchannel hashing was out-of-sync between the switch and the ESXi hosts, so
some connections were possible, some not. Got it fixed by plugging/reinsert both cables.
I would like to get this fixed. How to achieve this? The there any way to get an technical (who is able to analyse this kind to problems and fix it ) involved?
Thanks
Henri
