Error description

  • An unexpected restart might occur when using NFS and it might

    If running DataPower Firmware prior 5.0.0.4, the IPMISelEvents
    section might report a 'watchdog2HardReset' event.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • Affected are DataPower appliances running firmware
     5.0.0.0-5.0.0.9 or 6.0.0.0-6.0.0.1 in configurations using
    NFS for any purpose.
    
    The appliance might randomly restart, with no backtrace, logging
    an IPMI SEL event.  The likelihood of the restart increases
    with the number of application domains using NFS.
