Re: Event ID 1123 and 1122

Dell is sending someone onsite, they really haven't said anything to me
about the case.

Thanks for all your help on this!

Yeah, I was talking to the engineer that is working your case
yesterday...hopefully, his recommendations all got passed on to you via
the Dell engineer you are working with.

I got a reply back from Dell/Microsoft they don't believe this is a
broadcom driver issue - they took the MPSreports from all nodes.

This is a later version that what I am running but I think the only
enhancements are is to be able to support Windows 2008.

Just waiting to see what they say.

My experience with Broadcom drivers is that you should be running the
latest and greatest. However, this does not necessarily include drivers
like BASP which implements functionality above and beyond basic network
connectivity.

Chuck,

In order to install the Dell Based Broadcom drivers you had to install
everything. There was no option to deselect this option. I will go
back and ask them.

If this is such a problem why does Broadcom even have this. There
is a newer version that was released since my first call was open,
would that be worth a try.

Thanks for all the help on this issue.

When you installed the BACS, there was a choice not to install BASP,
but I believe the default is to install it...so, it may be one of
those 'click through the defaults scenarios'. I would contact the
vendor to be sure the procedures are correct before trying anything.
It may be a simple as using Add/Remove Programs and then modify the
Broadcom Management Programs and deselecting BASP...but do not quote
me on that.

Chuck,

So basically even though I am treating all NIC as individual NICs
when you have BASP loaded it treats them like a team.

How does one get rid of the BASP? What impact does this have on the
server, can I still use the broadcom drivers?

Why do vendors do something like this?


"Chuck [MSFT]" <ctimon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote in message

It is the BASP driver. Here is a FAQ
http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/faq_drivers.php

What is BASP (Broadcom Advanced Server Program)?

BASP is a Broadcom intermediate software driver for Windows Server
2003, Windows 2000, Windows NT, NetWare, and Linux that provides
load-balancing, fault-tolerance, and VLAN features. These features
are provided by creating teams (virtual adapters) that consist of
multiple NIC interfaces. A team can consist of one to eight NIC
interfaces, and each interface can be designated as primary or
standby. All primary interfaces in a team will participate in
load-balancing operations by sending and receiving a portion of the
total traffic. Standby interfaces will take over in the event that
all primary interfaces have lost their links. VLANs can be added to
a team to allow multiple VLANs with different VLAN IDs. A virtual
adapter is created for each VLAN added. Load-balancing and
fault-tolerance features will work with any third party's NIC
adapters. VLANs only work with Broadcom NIC adapters.

Chuck,

Event ID 1123 & 1122 happened with native Microsoft Windows 2003 R2
OS drivers on the cluster nodes, this happened from the start of
this cluster.

Then I proceed to have some other network issues - this is when
Dell Gold support realized that the drivers for the broadcom NIC
were just the native Microsoft windows 2003 R2 OS drivers, at this
point Dell Gold Support had me upgrade to the latest ones that they
supported at the time.

If I remove the Broadcom drivers then what will I use for NIC
drivers?

Since this is a production server shouldn't Dell/Microsoft/broadcom
be able to repro this in a lab environment. If indeed it is the
broadcom drivers causing this issue.

OK, so I reviewed the case which is owned by an Engineer on the
team here in NC. There is an outstanding request made for the
removal of a Broadcom driver and we are waiting for that to happen
before moving forward.

Correct, use the info in the KB. Or, open a Perf

figure
out the real issue.

Still nothing...

Should I measure the DPC of the NIC?

So from what you are saying I should adjust the
settings on the
heartbeat
via the command line.

Are there any post sp2 cluster patches that might
help?

You can run SCC and still take advantage of the new
settings
without
suing a FSW

DPC = Deferred Procedure Call

Chuck,

I don't think that article applies, we are running
SCC.

Clussvc.exe is at 5.2.3790.3959 if this helps at
all.

Yes, I have been troubleshooting these events ever
since we
installed
this cluster.

What do you mean by DPC ?

Thanks for all your help on this issue.

The failover only occurs when there is a 'true'
failure....so,
if
you
went through the article how did you investigate
the DPC
issues?
Those are the trickiest to, first, find, and then
address.
With
a
new
hot fix designed specifically for Exchange 2007
CCR, you can
actually
tune some parameters now that will help alleviate
the 1123
errors

Any other articles, unfortunately I went through
each and
every
step
describe in the article and still haven't been
able to get
rid
of
the
1123 and 1122 events.

I am at a lost on this issue.

So far the cluster resources haven't failed
over.

I need some opinions on how to correct getting
Event ID 1123
and
Event ID 1122 on all cluster nodes every hour.
This is a
three
node cluster running Windows 2003 SP2 -
Exchange 2007 Update
#
4.

I went through all best practices and nothing
really stands
out
as
a misconfiguration on any of the nodes.
Installed the
latest
network drivers for the network cards.

The cluster hasn't been affected by this yet.

Looking for suggestions on this issue.

Thanks in Advance!
Eric Sabo
