$

I've been having major drive disconnection issues with 5.1/9211-8i (firmware ver 14)

 

Looks like esxi 5.1 is using ver 10 of mpt2sas?

/tmp # vmkload_mod -s mpt2sas |grep Version
Version: Version 10.00.00.00.5vmw, Build: 799733, Interface: 9.2 Built on: Aug  1 2012

 

ver 14 of mpt2sas is recommended for 9211-8i firmware 14..

There isn't a VIM ver14 available for 5.1, this one is for 5.0

I cannot install it, what am i missing?

 

/tmp # esxcli software vib update -v /tmp/scsi-mpt2sas-14.00.00.00.1vmw-1OEM.500.0.0.472560.x86_64.vib
Installation Result
   Message: Host is not changed.
