Discussion in ' Microsoft Windows 2000 Hardware' started by Craig M, May 28, 2007. Hi all, we have a IBM x3655 server with three Qlogic QLE2460 HBA cards. The server is running Windows 2003 Standard (x32) and not Win2003 R2. The HBA's connect to the following devices HBA 1 -> EMC SAN HBA 2 -> Quantum PX500 library (direct connect and not via a switch) HBA 3 -> Quantum DLT- S4 tape drive (direcrt connect and not via a switch) We are seeing a lot of Event ID 129 events in the system event log. Here's an extract The description for Event ID ( 129 ) in Source ( ql2300 ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the / AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: \ Device\ Raid Port0. When these events occur we lose connectivity to the the tape drive. Only a server and library reboot will fix the issue. It typically takes 2 weeks for this situation to re-occur after a reboot of both the server and the library. A google on the event id brought up some support threads on the Qlogic forums with indicated the issue is actually caused by the MS Storport drivers, which then go on to list two MS KB articles that deal with this, these being 9158 55. The urls for those interested are KB 915858 seems to deal specifically with the events we are seeing logged in the system event log, however KB 932755 seems to be newer and is a whole replacement storport driver from MS. What isn't clear is if KB 932755 supercedes/replaces 915858 or if both should be applied. Just wondering if anyone what people thought. I'm leaning towards applying the 195858 hotfix first and then the updated storport.sys driver.
