I've seen it on a few systems now and have become a little more concerned.? I've seen references to this around the mailing list, but am a bit confused. Is this a kernel bug, or is it likely to be a hardware issue? Oct 14 09:45:45 localhost kernel: nvme 0000:05:00.0: I/O 1 QID 0 timeout, reset controller For reference, I'm running Centos 7.2 with the 4.4.1 elrepo kernel and nvme-cli 0.8.? I'm running these two commands in sequence: nvme format -s 1 /dev/nvme0n1 nvme format? /dev/nvme0n1 Thank you, Zeta Mercy Syanthis Software Test Engineer StackVelocity
