I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 serving 4 volumes via iSCSI and a Netgear ReadyNAS 3200. One user reported getting an error trying to save to the network. Looks like the below happened at the same time:
All events have same time stamp (6/12/2014 2:07:16 PM)
Event ID: 129 (Warning) ISCSiPort "Description cannot be found"
Event ID: 9 (Error) iSCSIPrt "Target did not respond in time for a SCSI request (x21)
Event ID: 39 iScsiPrt "Initiator send a task management command to reset the target."
Event ID: 27 iScsiPrt "Initiator could not find a match for the initiator task tag in the received PDU"
I opened a ticket with Netgear, and they gave the NAS a clean bill of health. Only other things I noticed on the unit was that the time was off and the one of the bonded LAN ports was showing an amber link status rather than green.
So I don't have a lot of experience with iSCSI and I'm not sure what the next steps would be. This doesn't happen often, but it may be part of some reoccurring problems. Any advice appreciated.
