Issue

IO errors causing the node to be unstable and experience Cassandra issues.
 
Check the E-series STATE-CAPTURE-DATA  (by downloading a support bundle) and StorageGRID kern.log  (by downloading a support bundle) on FC errors + IO errors, see if its matching the entries below to proceed with a replacement of the SFP's between de Compute and Storage controllers:
  • kern.log: 
Feb 31 12:28:26 localhost kernel: [1127732.640909] sd 7:0:0:251: [sdaf] tag#191 FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_ERROR driverbyte=DRIVER_OK
