OPERATIONAL DEFECT DATABASE

...
VMware SRM activity was initiated, and snapshot volumes were added to an ESXi host by manual BCV operation. A host rescan triggered the issue with PowerPath 6.3/6.4 versions. ESXi hostd goes unresponsive when PowerPath installed while running VMware Site Recovery Manager (SRM) operations.Affected versions:PowerPath/VE 6.3 (build 105)PowerPath/VE 6.4 (build 103)
This is a known PowerPath issue. A deadlock occurs while discovering a new snapshot/Clone volume in a VMware SRM environment.
Upgrade to PowerPath/VE 6.5 which contains the fix. See PowerPath/VE 6.5 release notes available here: https://dl.dell.com/content/docu93537
