Document Version Release Date Details 3 August 8, 2022 A new fix has been added to the Resolution section. 2 April 18, 2022 Firmware combo image version 8.55.31 is also affected by this issue. 1 November 5, 2021 Original Document Release. Any HPE Synergy Compute Module configured with either of the HPE Synergy Converged Network Adapters with firmware combo image version 8.55.31 (or earlier) listed in the scope section below may experience a link down condition on all ports as a result of an issue identified within the management firmware of the Converged Network Adapter. The condition in the management firmware of the Converged Network Adapter results in a loss or interruption of PMCI communication with the network adapter, causing a link down state for all of the ports connected to the Converged Network Adapter and manageability status change for the host in OneView. HPE OneView may report an issue with the server profile stating " Unable to read server adapter configuration data. The iLO is unable to communicate with the adapter in Mezzanine Slot X. " - where X is the slot with the affected Converged Network Adapter. The PMCI/MCTP error conditions can be logged in the Active Health System (AHS) Logs for an affected server: Note: The EIDs noted in the error messages below are assigned to the affected CNA/MEZZ adapter Informational,246,7479,0x45,PCIe VDM Driver,0x08,PCIe MCTP Error Msg, ,Engineering, XX:XX:XX, XX:XX:XX,src/dvrpcievdm_service.c(2277): [EID 40] [37:00] MCTP MSG: 7E 15 90 8F, No Response (Timeout) Caution,246,7480,0x38,PMCI Data,0x13,PMCI Error Msg, ,Engineering, XX:XX:XX, XX:XX:XX,src/pmci_mctp.c(3510): [EID 40] ADDRESS: 3700, (dvrpcievdm_client_transaction) dvrpcievdm_rc: 8, consecutive_fails: 0, initialization_fails: 0 Critical,246,7491,0x38,PMCI Data,0x13,PMCI Error Msg, ,Engineering, XX:XX:XX, XX:XX:XX,src/pmci.c(716): (OV DCi Error) [EID 62] [STATE: 132], retval: -2, iLO_internal_err: 5 Informational,246,7495,0x45,PCIe VDM Driver,0x08,PCIe MCTP Error Msg, ,Engineering, XX:XX:XX, XX:XX:XX,src/dvrpcievdm_service.c(2277): [EID 40] [37:00] MCTP MSG: 01 82 02 53, No Response (Timeout) Caution,246,7496,0x38,PMCI Data,0x13,PMCI Error Msg, ,Engineering, XX:XX:XX, XX:XX:XX,src/pmci_mctp.c(3510): [EID 40] ADDRESS: 3700, (dvrpcievdm_client_transaction) dvrpcievdm_rc: 8, consecutive_fails: 1, initialization_fails: 0
