Hi David:

I am not exporting data that I am aware of, other than what is required for the 
Data Collection for Reports.  But Reports is not currently a suspect as I have 
stopped the Data Collection and the issue persists.  One thing I should note is 
that when I was running InterMapper on the Linux VM, I also had IM Flows 
running.  IM Flows is not installed on this server, and my flow rate is 
typically averaging around 125,000 flows/min.  So that traffic volume

I have gone into the Windows Server Resource Monitor and resource utilization 
is low.  CPU is typically less than 10%, Memory is at 39% used, Disk I/O is 
averaging 200-250Kb/sec, Disk Queue Length is averaging .05, Network is 
averaging less than 1Mbps.

In checking VM Processor in Performance Monitor, CPU Stolen Time is averaging 
0.001

In checking the Interface in Performance Monitor, the Output Queue Length, 
Packet Outbound/Received Discarded/Error counters are zero.

In checking the UDP IPV4 in Performance Monitor, the received errors seem to be 
unrealistically high:
Datagrams No Port/sec averages about 17-18
Datagrams Received Errors is averaging about 70,000.000
Datagrams Received/sec is averaging about 44.000
Datagrams Sent/sec is averaging 44.000
Datagrams/sec is averaging about 85.000

In checking the TCP IPV4 in Performance Monitor, Connection Failures also seems 
unrealistically high
Connection Failures is Averaging 240,000.000

Any ideas?
Thank you
Randy
