x2200 Networking Problems
Hello,
I run a computational cluster of a mix of different machines, with all the compute nodes netbooted off of the head node.
We were very pleased with our V20zs, so when time came to order more, we ordered x2200s.
However, we're seeing random network dropouts from the machines, where we cannot access the server nor the service processor. When we can get to the machines, we see the following errors in dmesg:
tg3: eth1: transmit timed out, resetting
tg3: tg3_stop_block timed out, ofs=2c00 enable_bit=2
tg3: tg3_stop_block timed out, ofs=1400 enable_bit=2
tg3: tg3_stop_block timed out, ofs=c00 enable_bit=2
tg3: eth1: Link is down.
tg3: eth1: Link is up at 1000 Mbps, full duplex.
tg3: eth1: Flow control is offfor TX and offfor RX.
The cluster is running Fedora Core 4, if that helps any.
