Re: [CentOS] Re: tg3 ethernet card drops connection under heavy load

2008-10-14 Thread Sean Carolan 
 There was nothing out of the ordinary in /var/log/messages.  The
 logging just stops after the network card drops offline.  dmesg also
 shows nothing out of the ordinary when the driver is loaded.  The
 network card works fine until it is under heavy load.
 Since you are running CentOS 3 I am assuming this server has been in
 production for some time. Did these symptoms just start?
 Did you do any updates before this started happening?
 Did you install this equipment, or did you assume admin duties from someone
 else? Maybe it had the HP net driver installed, and a kernel update broke 
 that.

It appears to be a faulty NIC card.  We moved the connection over to
the other card and have not had any problems since.  Sometimes it's
just plain broken!  :)

 why don't you start with the kernel version and architecture?
 - uname -a
 
 This server is running centos 3.9
 Linux server.domain.com 2.4.21-57.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed May 7 06:10:55 EDT
 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
 
 - /var/log/messages relevant lines?
