Hi! Could this be https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=191201 ?
Try the following, from comment 37 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=191201#c37 | In the meantime, suggested workaround: | - disable rx data ring: ethtool -G eth? rx-mini 0 Also adding "vmxnet3.rev.30 = FALSE" to the vmx file of the VM seems to be needed. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=191201#c40 Also: Which hardware version are you running? It is v10 for me (highest for ESX5.5) Grüße, Sven.
