Decent performance tools can be used to benchmark it. Create a benchmark from
one linux
server to the other and measure it.

Any ideas on how we can verify what the speed really is? Since they are
seeing this number - there is now doubt in the air :-)

p.s. ethtool eth0 return 'No data available'

On RHEL5.2 -- we're using mii-tools and seeing that the ethernet

is set to 100mbs -- the OSA is set to gigabit - and we're wondering if
something special needs to be done to set it to gigabit speeds.. Using
'ethtool=' doesn't seem to work on Linux (s390x linux)..
I'm amazed that mii-tools returns anything at all.
This is on a VSWITCH -- everything works fine except the reported
speed...
Any ideas?
Since the interface that mii-tools is reporting on is a virtual one, having
nothing to do with any real hardware, I would say ignore it.
