AQC-100 doesn't work with ESX 6.7 #4

Open The-snOOpz opened 5 years ago

The-snOOpz commented 5 years ago

Hello, I have tested the vib on ESX 6.7 & 6.7u1 & 6.7u2 and it doesn't work with QNA-T310G1S (Chipset AQC100) on Skull Canyon NUC. I have tried DAC & RJ45 Module same result

I see the Thunderbold 3 correctly with "lspci" :

0000:02:00.0 Bridge PCI bridge: Intel Corporation DSL6340 Thunderbolt 3 Bridge [Alpine Ridge 2C 2015]
Class 0604: 8086:1576

and the vib :

esxcli software vib list | grep -i aqua
net-atlantic v2.2.3.0-esxi1.4 Aquantia CommunitySupported 2019-04-19

But nothing on the “esxcli system module list” & no light on the QNA-T310G1S Even if I tried to “--enabled” the module

Could you please do an update of the vib?

dimbez commented 5 years ago

Hi @The-snOOpz Is QNA-T310G1S listed in pci list (output of lspci) ? If no, please try to install the latest TB3 firmware update. Most likely it is known issues and related to TB3 chipset

The-snOOpz commented 5 years ago

Hi @dbezrukovaquantia When I install W10 it's working fine. I can use the QNA-T310G1S.

On your requisite, I have upgraded the TB3 FW to v25 (I was previously on v18). And I tried to reinstall ESXi v6.7u2 with the net670-atlantic-v2.2.3.0-esxi1.5.x86_x64.vib I have the same thing with "lspci" & "esxcli hardware pci list" I see the TB3 controller :

I have tried to reinstall from scratch ESX6.7u2 RollUp or ESX6.7u3 on my Intel Skull Canyon NUC (NUC6I7KYK) and after this fresh install, I put the net670-atlantic-v2.2.3.0-esxi1.6.x86_x64-offline-bundle.zip but it's not working... And under my W10, it's working fine! I really don't understand why it's working for you and not for me under my 2 NUCs...

Putting the zip file where? I've been using 2.2.3.0 1.6 release for a while; it worked under 6.5 and 6.7 up to U3.

Hi, @The-snOOpz, please refer to the following article to update firmware of your NUC

The-snOOpz commented 5 years ago

Hi @frozenak, I have tried to install vib or the zip 2.2.3.0 1.6 : same result = not working Hi @dbezrukovaquantia, thx for the URL. My 2 NUCs are already up to date to the last FW for the BIOS & Thunderbolt3. Maybe it's incompatible with my Mikrotik CRS309-1G-8S+ or with the 10Gtek DAC cable. But when I install W10 it's working.

dimbez commented 5 years ago

Hi, @The-snOOpz following this article, there is said that NUC Gen 7th and 8th support for thunderbolt devices on ESXi. I'm not sure but probably it is the reason why your NUC Gen6 may don't support it. Unfortunately, we don't have any NUCs to check it. Hi, @ErikBussink, may you please share more info about your NUC which looks working with QNAP-T310G1S?

Hi, new to github/totally out of my league/trying to figure out an issue - I have a little information, hope it helps someone out. VMware official word is that the AQC107 is listed as "community supported" only - I assume that means that it hasn't been tested, and any weird issues fall under "buyer beware". In my case, the esx6.7 hosts won't apply any critical updates past U2. We were planning on connecting it to a QNAP TS-73.

Is the acceptance level on your host(s) set to CommunitySupported? I've updated from 6.5 all the way to 6.7U3 without issue. The message reads that the host(s) current acceptance level is set to Partner.

Thanks for letting me know. I’ve been speaking to vmware support and was told to lose the card and driver. I wasn’t aware that you could change the support level. I’ll go through the document you sent and mention it to vmware.

Got sick of waiting, turned down the acceptance level on the server, slammed the card back in and it updated fine along with the others. Thanks for the help:)
