Passthrough issues

Hi there people,

 

Hoping some has a solution to my issue here, as it is driving me nuts...

 

My setup is the following:

Mobo: SuperMicro X10SDV-4C-TLN4F BIOS 2.0a

Ram: 16GB

IPMI: 3.68

Raid: Adaptec 6805 F/W 5.30 (19204)

 

Software:

VMWare 6.7.0 Update 1 (Build 10302608)

 

I have an issue that in every system where i add my Adaptec card the system works ok on first boot, but after mounting the RAID array I have setup everything just stops working.

I have confirmed this issue with newest Debian (9.6) and Fedora (29), when installing the systems they see the RAID array just fine and I can add it to the FSTAB and mount it just fine and explore around on it, but after rebooting everything just stops.

Fedora i get something like this

Nov 23 11:45:00 localhost systemd-hibernate-resume[624]: Could not resume from '/dev/mapper/fedora-swap' (253:1).

 

And this

 

Nov 25 11:30:08 azumi kernel: [drm] Initialized vmwgfx 2.15.0 20180704 for 0000:00:0f.0 on minor 0

Nov 25 11:31:09 azumi systemd-udevd[480]: seq 2730 '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:0b:00.0' is taking a long time

Nov 25 11:31:38 azumi systemd[1]: dev-mapper-fedora\x2dswap.device: Job dev-mapper-fedora\x2dswap.device/start failed with result 'timeout'.

And it just halts for some minutes and then goes into the safe mode option.

 

"a start up job is running for.." for the Raid drive added to FSTAB, then logs

Dependency failed for /media/raid

Dependency failed for Local File Systems

Dependency failed for Mark the need to relabel after next reboot


Also get this if i reboot the system after the above error

Timed out waiting for device dev-mapper-fedora\x2swap.device

Dependency failed for Resume from himbernation using device /dev/mapper/fedora-swap


and the disk is now missing in /dev/disk/by-uuid

I can see aacraid in lsmod, but is it is listed with "used by 0"

Intel VT is turned on in the BIOS and this is the output from ESXiCli it self about the controller

Hope any one has a good idea about what to do, I started with the original 2.0 BIOS and IPMI 3.48, so decided to update them both to hope that would solve it, but sadly not. I have also tried the newest driver from Adaptec and installed that in ESXi, but still no go.

Thanks in advance.

Thomas
