Troubleshooting

You may receive an error message similar to the following: "SimpleIOStress Failed! -> IcmpSendEcho() had too many consecutive timeouts. Win32=1214 - The format of the specified network name is invalid." This failure can be caused by network latency, which can be improved by trying one or more of the following steps:

• Disable DHCP and use static IP addressing.
• Place a router or switch directly between the controller and client.

For redundant network paths, add an additional NIC connected to the network.
