Qlogic QLE8152 CNA HBA hangs during reboot
Issue
- on RHEL 5.9 system with an QLE8152 CNA HBA (FCoE) system hangs during reboots (5-10 minutes), specifically during the shutdown phase.
- no errors in /var/log/messages.
- the console displays:
Unmounting file systems

Then, a lengthy call trace scrolls across the screen. After, this is displayed:
qla2xxx 0000:05:00.3 qlx2xxx_eh_device_reset: reset succeeded.

qla2xxx 0000:05:00.3 qla2xxx_eh_host_reset: reset succeeded.
- the above entire 5+ minute process repeats for the second mpath device.
- why does this happen during a shutdown/reboot?
