OK - so from your description it seems that the issue is reproducible on multiple (different?) systems - is this correct? If we can get some more details about the failure it will at least point to whether this is system or NIC specific. Please reply with yes or no: 1. Are you seeing the issue on multiple systems (preferably not of the same type).? 2. Are you seeing this with different NICs or just the one you reported in the initial email? 3. Can you provide simple steps to reproduce? You mentioned reboots - is it fair to say that you see the issue after several reboots? > when we first get rx_no_buffer_count in -S then after some > point it stops and starts counting rx_missed packets.
