Re: [Xen-users] iscsi conn error: Xen related?

Hello all,

I got some severe iscsi connection loss on my dom0 (Gentoo 2.6.20-xen-r6, xen 3.1.1). Happening several times a day.
open-iscsi version is 2.0.865.12. Target iscsi is the open-e DSS product.

Here is a snip of my messages log file:
May  5 16:52:50 ying connection226:0: iscsi: detected conn error (1011)
May  5 16:52:51 ying iscsid: connect failed (111)
May 5 16:52:51 ying iscsid: Kernel reported iSCSI connection 226:0 error (1011) state (3)
May  5 16:52:53 ying connection215:0: iscsi: detected conn error (1011)
May  5 16:52:53 ying iscsid: connect failed (111)
May  5 16:52:53 ying iscsid: connect failed (111)
May  5 16:52:53 ying iscsid: connect failed (111)
May  5 16:52:53 ying iscsid: connect failed (111)
[...]

and sometimes:
May 5 16:53:11 ying iscsid: connection227:0 is operational after recovery (6 attempts) May 5 16:53:11 ying iscsid: connection221:0 is operational after recovery (6 attempts) May 5 16:53:12 ying iscsid: connection214:0 is operational after recovery (9 attempts)

I doubt it's Xen related.

I'm running lots of dom0s and domUs (and non-Xen) running as iSCSI initiator mostly without such problems.

If it ever happens, it can mean a problem with:

1) iSCSI target implementation,
2) either the target or initiator is very loaded (or both).


Did you try changing the iSCSI target, either to tgt or SCST? I'm not sure what targer you have with e-open; I think they wanted to migrate to SCST, but used buggy IET before (or stil use, I'm not sure).

Any other messages/logs?


2.6.25 has a nice feature with soft lockups detection, i.e. it will print such messages when machine is severely loaded (it may indicate some problems):

May 3 00:46:33 backup1 kernel: INFO: task sync:4875 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
