Hi Christian,
Did you find the solution?
I am going to try to repair with the ISO. Is it the solution you used?

Hi Cristian,
I have the same problem here.
I'm using UCS C210.
When start booting the ESxi 5.5 then the same error comes up :
error loading /state.tgz fatal error 6 (buffer too small).
Based on your experience,
Can I keep the existing VM files when re-install the ESxi?
I'm using single datastore (same location between OS Esxi and VM Files)
Please Help.
Thanks
Bagus

We have ESXi 5.5 installed on a standalone UCS C200M2 server. I saw that one of the drives in RAID10 was showing "pd missing backplane slot 0" on CIMC.
I went into WebBIOS and configured it be online. However, upon reboot I got this error.
Upon removing the disk, my ESXi host rebooted fine. I am going to replace the disk and see how it goes.
Cheers

after replacing the disk the status went back to ""pd missing backplane slot 0". I went into the web BIOS and brought it online along with the disk. But, the hypervisor failed to load now. :(
I took the disk out to try and was able to boot the hypervisor.
How do I replace the faulty disk?

I tried hot swap again and the status for the new disk is now "Rebuild". (Inventory--> Storage0--> Physical drive info). I can still hear server beeps (1 off and 1 ON) however the amber light is flashing as against stable before replacing the drive. Hopefully, once the rebuild is complete, the amber light should stop flashing and NO BEEPS.
Thanks for this thread
