I have 3 machines, T60 thinkpad with e1000 NIC Dell PowerEdge 2950 with bnx2 NIC HP DL360 G4P with tg3 NIC All running xen 3.03 / 2.6.16.29-xen I have a netbootable image with 2.6.16.29-xenU. This image when it boots creates a vlan eth0.4002, and then tries to communicate on that interface to a central server. On the machines with e1000 an bnx2 NICs, this works fine. On the

Hi, I''m having problems using Xen (2.0.7 and 3.0.0) on newer IBM HS-20 blades, which uses Broadcom network card (tg3 kernel module).

Hi, i have some problems with xen-3.0.1 and the network-bridge script. After ''/etc/init.d/xend start'' or ''/etc/xen/script/network-bridge start'' everything works perfect (as well as the domU''s network) - but only for a few seconds (~20s). After that the network seems to crash - no outgoing or incoming connection possible. I have read a forum

Greetings: I know it's been mentioned before that the tg3 driver in CentOS 3.4 is buggy. I had to revert to 3.4 today from 4 (fresh install) and now I have no link and thus no network. I'm wondering if this is caused by this bug and what the work-around is. Thanks. Brendon Colby

Hi Konrad, The following patch causes fairly large packet loss when transmitting from dom0 to the physical network, at least with my tg3 hardware, but I assume it can impact anything which uses this interface. I suspect that the issue is that the compound pages allocated in this way are not backed by contiguous mfns and so things fall apart when the driver tries to do DMA. However I

Hello, I am desperately trying to get pci-passthrough to working. I want to pass a tg3 nic to domU. when booting domU I get a lot of messages: pcifront pci-0: pciback not responding!!! in domU, "ifconfig eth... adress up" hangs for 2 minutes, finally ifconfig -a shows a correct setting with no data transmitted rx/tx The IP Adress is being assigned, but there is no data transmission

Hi, I have to install Broadcom driver because the Dell Optiplex 330 running Centos 5.2 is not able to connect to the network. I am trying to install a Broadcom driver, but I get the followng error: [root at localhost tg3-3.85l]# [root at localhost tg3-3.85l]# make make -C /lib/modules/2.6.18-92.el5/build SUBDIRS=/usr/src/Server/Linux/Driver/tg3-3.85l modules make[1]: Entering directory

Hi *, I'm running into a problem configuring bonding on an HP DL 360 G4p, running 4.3 + tg3 driver version 3.43f. I'm connecting eth0 and eth1 to a Cisco 2948 (CatOS 8.1(3)) and receiving flapping notices. The ethernet address is that of the primary interface. I have tried several different modes, including balance-rr (0), active-backup (1), and balance-alb (6). All have the

Hello, Please CC replies I'm not subscribed. Performance with samba and only samba degrades terribly when we use the bonding driver to aggregate two ethernet cards. Instead of a steady file copy it seems to go in spurts. If I pull out one of the network cables (doesn't matter which) performance resumes to full speed. I can pull the cable in the middle of a transfer and it will go

Hi, I just installed CentOS 4.4 x86_64 on our new 2 x Dual Core Opteron Server. First the system was unstable, but I after turning of Power-now it runs stable (anyone else experienced this?). However the following line in dmesg puzzles me: tg3: eth0: No interrupt was generated using MSI, switching to INTx mode. Please report this failure to the PCI maintainer and include system chipset

Hi all I''m trying to get Xen running on a Tyan MB, having 3 NICs (1 e100 and 2 tg3''s). Using linux-2.6.hg on a dual Opteron. Compile was OK, and using the e100 as eth0 everything works as it should, great thing. when having one of the tg3''s as eth0, Dom0 works ok, but when starting a DomU, the network in as well Dom0 as DomU stop (as in ''completely

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
