Hello, we've got an MD3000i that is doing some weird things when we plug in either of the 2 ISCSI ports on Controller A. Here's some output from the console for controller A, and i've attached a screenshot of the event log for the system as well.(edit: looks like max attachment/upload size is 64KB, can't get a screenshot to go that small) It looks like anytime either ISCSI port on controller A is plugged in, it experiences these errors over and over, but when the ports are disconnected all is well.

Plugging in the ISCSI ports on controller B doesn't throw any strange errors like that, could it simply be a bad controller? Thanks!
