Error description

  • The mobile client partition at 6.1. TL 06 hangs at LED
    2005 after LPM.
    This problem can only happen at AIX 6.1. TL6 where
    vscsi_kproc is introduced.  And the reason for the LED
    2005 hang is vscsi_kproc being paged out.
    The problem happens when there is heavier workload on the
    mobile client partition and has not enough memory.
