Description of problem: Errors on boot when using the lpfc driver on RHEL4 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.9-11.EL How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot a machine with an LP7000 2.

The same configuration works fine under RHEL3 U5, using the builtin 7.1.14 driver instead of the 8.0.16.6_x2 one.
Please check to see if you have the latest Emulex firmware.
Does the problem still occur with RHEL 4 U2 (where there is a driver update)? Also, still waiting for confirmation that they have the latest firmware.
This fits the description of out of date firmware on the card. We have one other fix that applied to this error. However, the error did not replicate on the 8.0.16.17 driver in testing. Please attempt to update the firmware to the latest and rerun. If that is still failing, contact me. -- james
This has been NEEDINFO for over six months. Closing. Please test with U3, and the latest Emulex firmware.
