This issue occurs during error handling by the lpfc driver, and the driver incorrectly reports that the abort request timed out.
To resolve this issue, upgrade the lpfc driver to version 10.2.340.18 or later, available at VMware Downloads. Note: Contact your hardware vendor to determine the most recent qualified driver and firmware revisions for your server platform.For more information, see: Determining Network/Storage firmware and driver version in ESXi/ESX 4.x, ESXi 5.x and ESXi 6.x (1027206) Installing async drivers on VMware ESXi 5.x and ESXi 6.0.x (2005205)
