[Bug 1458617] Re: Avoton server occasionally fails to boot when using SSD disks connected using ahci driver

 

** Description changed:

+ SRU Justification:
+ 
+ Impact:   Intermittent OS failure due to SSD disk initialisation failure
+ Fix:      Upstream development
+ Testcase: About once per 5000 reboots on one server. 
+           If the user has several hundred servers, 
+           the frequency isn't negligible. 
+ 
+ ---------------------
+ 
  It was brought to my attention the following BUG:
  
- Avoton server occasionally fails to boot when using SSD disks 
- connected using ahci driver. When this problem occurs, the disk is 
- not recognized by the Linux kernel, and the server fails to boot.
