Linux Professional Services Query

Howdy All,
We are using an Ubuntu 14.04 server - kernel version 3.13.0-37-generic with 
LIO target service which is being used to hand out LUNS to ESXi machines 
over fibre channel and previously iSCSI.

We are seeing an intermittent issue where all the ESXi servers slowly stop 
responding, and as a result we loose the VM's

The following 3 lines are repeated over and over again in syslog & dmesg 
outputs on the Ubuntu box and the LIO target modules don't seem to respond 
anymore.

Oct 29 23:55:29 iqsan-02 kernel: [23812.182144] ABORT_TASK: Sending 
TMR_TASK_DOES_NOT_EXIST for ref_tag: 1140748

Oct 29 23:55:29 iqsan-02 kernel: [23812.182154] ABORT_TASK: Found 
referenced qla2xxx task_tag: 1133004

Oct 29 23:55:29 iqsan-02 kernel: [23812.182155] ABORT_TASK: ref_tag: 
1133004 already complete, skipping


As part of our attempts at fixing we have disabled and removed the iSCSI 
connections and are currently looking at moving the shares over to NFS to 
try and get away from LIO altogether.

We would like to be sure that we understand the problem and are taking the 
correct course of action. We are looking for a company or contractor that 
we can pay to look at our diagnostics so far and help us confirm this.
Does anyone on list contract in this way, or know of a company that can 
help us with Professional Services?
