Error description

  • There is a documented issue with VMware ESX 6.0:
SCSI operations fail with out of memory messages (2146529)

https://kb.vmware.com/kb/2146529

We need to update to a version that contains the fix.
This issue is resolved in ESXi 6.0 Patch
ESXi-6.0.0-20161104001.

Local fix

  • The customer can restart the compute node that is nearing heap
exhaustion by executing the following steps:

1. Quiesce the compute node
2. Maintain the compute node
3. Check that all VMs have been moved off of the compute node
   before proceeding. If they have not, you can power off and
   store remaining workloads. If this is not an option, support
   can investigate why the VMs could not be migrated and can
   assess whether any workaround is available
4. Power off the node
5. Power on the node
6. Start the node

Problem summary

  • We have upgraded to VMware ESXi 6.0 patch 4 build 4600944.

Problem conclusion

  • A code fix is being provided in PureApplication System and
BlueMix Local System version 2.2.3.0.

Temporary fix
