Hi, I found how to remove those logs in Dell servers before entering BIOS in "System Setup" enter - Device Settings - Embedded NIC XX Port XX BCM5720 ... - NIC Configuration - Permit Total Port Shutdown <- disabled by default and it seem that because of that there's APE lock logs bge0: APE lock 0 request failed! request = 0x8400[0x1000], status = 0x8420[0x0001] bge0: APE lock 0 request failed! request = 0x8400[0x1000], status = 0x8420[0x0001] bge0: APE lock 0 request failed! request = 0x8400[0x1000], status = 0x8420[0x0001] bge0: APE lock 0 request failed! request = 0x8400[0x1000], status = 0x8420[0x0001] bge0: APE lock 0 request failed! request = 0x8400[0x1000], status = 0x8420[0x0001] when "Permit Total Port Shutdown" is enabled those APE lock logs are gone ...
