What does "target fail detect" mean?

andrew_somervil — Sat, 14 Jul 2018 11:31:01 GMT

We are seeing intermittent reboots of APs with this message showing in ZD as the restart reason. What is the cause of this?

Andrew. Did you ever get a response on this? We have 7 Ap's in one of our buildings and 3 of them are going offline all the time.

We are having this same issue. We have 15 - 20 AP in the field and we seen this 3 times in the last 4 months. We discovered if you change the AP (master to slave) and back it seems to fix this issue temporarily. If that doesn't work you need to reset the AP and start over.

Hello Janx,

There is an issue resolved on ZD 10.1.1 Refresh 3 Release notes:

Resolved a target fail detected issue on APs. [ER-6665]

Although the best way would be opening a case with Ruckus support to analyze the logs and as per the findings provide a fix.

Hello Tom,

Kindly open a case with Ruckus support as to identify the root cause for target fail "dram dump" needs to be taken from the problematic AP. Once these logs are collected then root cause would be found.

Hello Andrew,

The reason Target fail detected indicates a software crash but to know the exact reason we would need to extract dram dump from the AP. The dram dump can be taken from AP shell and hence restricted to Ruckus support. Kindly open a case with Ruckus support to collect the logs and provide a resolution.

Hi

Hello Janx,

The case has been opened with contact name as Hannes Mulla and preferred contact method as email so the case engineer has been following up on the case through email to hannes@proit.ee. Till now there has been no response to the engineer and hence case is in "customer pending". Please call support (https://support.ruckuswireless.com/contact-us) and mention the case number 00916556 or if the case has been opened with your account you can access the case and update through https://support.ruckuswireless.com//cases/00916556 or please confirm that you would require a call back on +372 650 9381 and need email to be added as sven@standard.ee.

The engineer would require support log of the AP's that are rebooting along with the controller debug log.

Best Regards
Vineet
