[Xen-devel] DL120G5 specific problem

[Andrey Korolyov <andrey@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am experiencing strange problem about two old proliants using 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 and xen-hypervisor-4.0-amd64-4.0.1-1 from squeeze repo with same hw config. They freezes on reboot(exactly, after printing 'restarting system') and may be booted up again only over ilo or by hands.

Here is parts of dmi info:

Handle 0x0000, DMI type 0, 24 bytes

BIOS Information

        Vendor: HP

        Version: O22   

        Release Date: 11/13/2008

        Address: 0xE6820

        Runtime Size: 104416 bytes

        ROM Size: 2048 kB

Handle 0x0002, DMI type 2, 10 bytes

Base Board Information

        Manufacturer: Wistron Corporation

        Product Name: ProLiant DL120 G5

        Version:      NA

        Serial Number: 0123456789

As i guess problem comes with device which using proprietary firmware Dell Broadcom NetXtreme II Dual Port:

​​01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5709 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 20)

01:00.1 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5709 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 20)

because third server with same config but without this card reboots well. 

The servers was old and cards was relatively old so this report may be not useful as well.

Thanks!
