How to identify if a boot flash drive has failed on 108NL, NL400, S200, X200, or X400 nodes with Event ID: 100010023 and 400120001.

The OneFS event 'Physical Memory low (expected xxxGB, found yyyGB)' indicates a defective DIMM module in the node, or an issue with the node's configuration.

Kerberos authentication fails on upgrade to OneFS 8.0.0.0 from a cluster previously on OneFS 6.5.

Some Gen6 power supplies were shipped with corrupted data in their resume EEPROM. This causes the product ID string to be unreadable. It can also cause firmware update attempts fail. A firmware update failure may cause the node to enter a boot loop.

Nodes run out of memory due to lockdata not releasing used memory.

A faulty Dual inline memory module (DIMM) in a node may cause backend latency.

This article describes a known issue with ConnectX-6 (CX6) InfiniBand backend path failover. An architectural change introduced in CX6 InfiniBand Host Channel Adapter (HCA)s affects backend path redundancy, resulting in unexpected failover behavior.

A Gen6 DE peer node pair (H400, A200, A2000) can sometimes start generating error messages indicating problems with their NTB link. Errors can include repeated 'NTB link up/down' messages, and link speed negotiation errors.

Due to an internal change in the EN06 and newer, and 0006 and newer firmware for Seagate Megalodon drives, any drives upgraded non-disruptively to this firmware may go into smartfail unnecessarily when a drive is replaced if the node has not yet been rebooted since the upgrade. This issue affects OneFS versions 8.0.0.4 and older, 8.0.1.0 and 8.0.1.1.

Clusters are reporting AD server missing needed Service Principle Names (SPNs) after a Superna Failover/Failback for SPNs that do not match any cluster SmartConnect Zone Name (SCZN).
