asterisk users - Oct 2007 - Compatibility Issues with dell poweredge 1950 and TE110P card

Has anyone had any compatibility issues with a TE110P card installed on a
Dell Poweredge 1950?  I noted the following error on the LCD display of the
Dell Poweredge 1950:

 

E1711 PCI PErr Slot 1 E171F PCIE Fatal Error B0 D4 F0.

 

The Dell hardware owners manual states that it means the system BIOS has
reported a PCI parity error on a component that resides in PCI configuration
space at bus 0, device 4, function 0 and advises that the PCI expansion card
be removed and reseated.

 

Any suggestions on what exactly might be causing this are welcome.

 

Thanks.

 

Joseph

I had this error on a 1950 while testing a Sangoma quad-port card.
Re-seating the PCI expansion board seemed to solve the problem.

My guess would be that the Digium card is causing the issue although you 
would probably be led to believe that the Dell is not compatible with 
the card and not visa versa.

It would be interesting to see if a Sangoma board would have that same 
issue.  I have not had any of these compatibility issues since going 
Sangoma.

Is this an older card or one with the "New and Improved Bus" thing? 

Have you called Digium?

Thanks,
Steve

Yes, I have had this problem with a dell PE1650, 1850, SC1400, and PE650. I
have a TE410P that does it. It may not be wise, but I just ignore the orange
blinking LCD display (or light, depending on the model). I did try reseating
the card, and it "works" for a few weeks, and then goes back to the
same old
thing.

Yes, that happened too.  Digium has graciously offered to send me a TE120P
with the Digium VoiceBus technology which I will test out on the Dell 1950.
Will post my findings thereafter.

This sounds like something worthy of notifying tech support of.  Can you 
try contacting them so that they can further diagnose this problem?

Thanks.

The TE110P has the old style PCI interface on it.  The TE120 is the 
newer one based on Voicebus.  In any case, he should contact tech 
support about this so we can resolve it.

Digium said the issue was resolved in the newest zaptel. They also
suggested they would replace cards with the newer versions if there
was an issue. Might want to call Digium and hope for the best in this
case.
