Greetings all: Loading Xen up on a server with 2 of these GbE adapters. I''m using the first one as the main interface and the second one for the NFS storage network. When things are running, I can see xenbr0 and pif shows it attached to eth0, although I don''t see any peth0 or vif0.0. I can connect to the main address on the machine without any problem. The trouble

I totally agree with Luc Boudreau about this problem. On modern branded server they ALL use Broadcom chipset... I must admit that: a) lot of people are experiencing the problem but can tolerate it or b) someone already experienced this problem and solved it Lets'' approach the problem pragmatically... just start with a survey on the list. ... hope we solve this issue soon.

Hi all, I am using Xen 2.0.7. I have Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 02) cards which support frames greater than 1500. However when I boot into Xen and try to set the MTU to anything higher than 1500 (e.g., 4000, 8000 etc) I get a segmentation fault. After this fault, every command fails with a segmentation fault. I saw a similar bug report p...

hi i''m using htb + u32 filters, and i was wondering if there is something one can optimize at this stage. i have a lot of filters (~ 50.000 / interface, and there are two interfaces), and around 4500 classes / interface. the traffic going through this machine is something around 210-230mbit/s at 50kpps. as you can imagine, the load is pretty high. in fact (as it''s a dual xeon at

Hello, Does anyone have bonding working under CentOS on a modern Proliant? What driver do you use? My setup: Centos x86_64 4.3 fully patched on a Proliant DL380 G4. 2 built-in NICs: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10) Using the tg3 driver that came with the OS. I'm trying to set up bonding between the 2 built-in Broadcom NICs in active-backup mode with each NIC going to a separate switch. When I just connect eth0 to a gig port on a switch, both sides on auto/auto, everything is pe...

(networking-discuss Bcc''ed) Good morning, The Crossbow team would like to invite you to participate in the project''s third and last phase of code review. The third phase of the review starts today, and will last for two weeks. It covers the following parts of the code: VLANs Link Aggregations Xen mac_datapath_setup All drivers

Hi all! We use pxelinux for booting a diskless Linux from whitch we install all our systems. But we discovered some Problems: - With v1.75 the Kernel is fetched from the TFTP-Server with no problem, but it gets not started on Broadcom NetXtreme with newer PXE-Bioses - With v2.04, pxelinux even seems not to be able to fetch the kernel from the TFTP-Server. This affects also Intel's

Hey all I''m new to Linux and Virtualizing. I''m trying to dedicate my nic''s to each virtual server. For instance, virt server A would use nic1 and virt server B would use nic2 and so on. I''ve been reading some stuff for this list and to tell you the truth I''m a bit overwhelmed. We are going to run SLES10.1 and Xen. I would appreciate any assistance.

Hello, I've got a very strange problem. Lately I've been setting up my linux servers for network (layer2) redundancy with a bridge interface containing two ethernet interfaces connecting to two switches. So far I didn't have any problems with it, but now a very strange thing happens with a new server I'm installing. The server is an ibm x346 having two onboard BCM5721 cards, the

In OLS 2005, we described the work that we have been doing in VMware with respect a common interface for paravirtualization of Linux. We shared the general vision in Rik's virtualization BoF. This note is an update on our further work on the Virtual Machine Interface, VMI. The patches provided have been tested on 2.6.16-rc6. We are currently recollecting performance information for the new
