I can google for it, but if you know the patch KB# that’s be very helpful for it.
Before I thought it was because we were running VM version 8 machines with 2012 where you’re supposed to have version 10 machines. But we updated all of the VM versions and Vmware tools and we thought it was fixed but it wasn’t. -Robb From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Todd Lemmiksoo Sent: Thursday, June 11, 2015 10:13 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [NTSysADM] We the same problem with our 2008 servers. There is a MS fix/patch that sometimes fixes the nic. Else we just disable and reable the nic. We use the vmx3net nic and vmtools are not always up-to-date. It is very hard for us to get down time just to update vmtools. Todd Lemmiksoo On Jun 11, 2015 1:00 PM, "Jack Kramer" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: What vNICs are you using?

All our servers are virtualized with static IPs running on VMware hypervisors. The servers that have connections to more than 1 ip sometimes drop their connection. Other machines connected to the same network don’t lose their connection so I don’t think it’s the link between the hypervisor and the switch. It appears to be a windows problem. Anyone else have servers running Windows 2k12 R2 that are connected to multiple networks that somehow lose connection randomly from time to time. If we disable and reenable the NIC then they come back up but they really shouldn’t go down at all. Ideas? -Robb
