Hi,
I have 3 xen box with 2-3 VM on each.
Each server has 2 nic (1 for external and 1 for internal network).
All VMs are webserver and they mount a nfs filesystem.
I''ve noticed that on each dom0 there are many dropped packets.
Server config is:
1- DELL (2xQuad Xeon E5320 @1.86Ghz - 8Gb Ram - Perc5 - Kernel 2.6.18-6
(debian etch))
2- DELL (2xDual Xeon 5110 @1.60Ghz - 4Gb Ram - Perc5 - Kernel 2.6.18-6
(debian etch))
3 - 2xOpteron 242 @ 1,60Ghz - 2Gb Ram - 3ware raid controller - kernel
2.6.18-6 (debian etch))
This is my ifconfig output for the first server (the other 2 are almost
same):

There''re a bridge for each nic:> brctl show
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces

I''ve also enabled arp_filtering with:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/arp_filter
And i''ve disabled tx checsum with:
ethtook -K for every network interface in dom0 and on domU
Can anyone help me?
Thank''s a lot.
