Opened: Jan 28, 2019

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

When the tmm Nitrox 3 queue stuck problem is encountered, the Nitrox 3 code tries to log the instruction/request, but it may fail due to SELinux permissions error. The system posts messages in /var/log/ltm similar to the following: -- crit tmm1[21300]: 01010025:2: Device error: n3-compress0 Nitrox 3, Hang Detected: compression device was reset (pci 00:09.7, discarded 54). -- crit tmm1[21300]: 01010025:2: Device error: n3-compress0 Failed to open instruction log file '/shared/nitroxdiag/instrlog/tmm01_00:09.7_inst.log' err=2.

Impact

Error messages occur, and the tmm Nitrox 3 code cannot log the instruction/request.

Conditions

-- tmm Nitrox 3 queue stuck problem is encountered. -- The Nitrox 3 code tries to log the instruction/request.

Workaround

None.

Fix Information

Nitrox 3 queue stuck occurrences are now logged as expected.
