On the virtual hosts and possible guest.. Did you check if there not any problem with drivers and possible offloading of the nics.. I use XenServer, so thats the example i can give. https://github.com/cloudnull/XenServer-Offloading-Off/blob/master/offloadingoff.sh But which one does work now? You didnt tell that. :-( Greetz, Louis> -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > Van: samba [mailto:samba-bounces at lists.samba.org] Namens > Chris Dos via samba > Verzonden: dinsdag 17 augustus 2021 16:05 > Aan: samba at lists.samba.org > Onderwerp: Re: [Samba] Multichannel and RSS Not Detected > > Already upgraded to them.? :) > > Afraid it did not fix the problem.?

I thought I did post that in my first message, but looking at it now, I guess not.? The server that is running libvirt/kvm along with also being a SMB/NAS server is working.? It also has two 100Gb bonded in a 802.3ad LAG that also has to be bridged to work with KVM networking.? So the servers are configured in a very similar manner.? One works and and one does not.? That is why I was suspecting that perhaps it is a missing library of some kind. Just don't know how to debug the reason why one of the servers is not working.? I increased the logging level but I did not see anything that stood out.? ???

I was digging into the difference between the servers again and I noticed some other difference.? I had upgraded the firmware a couple of months ago on the Supermicro Mellanox card (had to get the firmware from Supermicro) that is in the server that is not working.? I'm also running the Mellanox driver itself on the server that is not working.? Both of these servers are multi-homed and are connected to three different networks.? I discovered this morning that when looking at the server that is working on the storage interface, that multichannel is not working on the internal interface which is using a different NIC.? So there is another piece added to this puzzle.? You gave an example to disable offloading of the NICs.? Is that required for multichannel/RSS to work? ???

These might be out of sync. dpkg -l |grep firmware I dont know if linux is also loading firmware, but check that, should be somewhere in the bootlog/dmesg output. If thats the case, i would look in : packages.debian.org if the current firmware is available in newer packages.> > Both of these servers are multi-homed and are connected to three different > networks.?

So there is another piece > added to this puzzle.? You gave an example to disable offloading of the NICs.?> Is that required for multichannel/RSS to work?I dont think its required. I would start here with newer kernel and linux firmwares. https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=buster-backports§ion=all&arch=any&searchon=names&keywords=linux-image-5.10 https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=buster§ion=all&arch=any&searchon=names&keywords=firmware-linux And possible the "specific firmwares" ( like i use : firmware-bnx2 ) Cant help much beside above, i hope i gave you some ideas where to look at.
