It's firmware version is : 1.11A5 (U3D1.11A5), sli-3 Kernel version: 2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64 Reboot 5 times, no lpfc kernel panic came out. As Bug #634703 spot out: >Emulex believes there is exposure to this issue in large SAN environment where >the device discovery process could see delayed responses which result in iocbs >being queued.

Very likely you do.
I added 20 more SAN disks to the configuration and did a one hour reboot cycle for the system. An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on therefore solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2010-0842.html
