DL380G5 + bnx2 = dropped packages

Ciro Iriarte — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 05:21:08 GMT

Hi, I've done a fresh install of SLES10SP2 and the 3 active interfaces are reporting dropped packages. Tried to install the bnx2 driver from latest PSP (8.00), but the procedure fails...

I've seen the same issue on the DL585 G1.

According to Novell, this error is cosmetic. No packets are actually being dropped. See http://lnk.nu/novell.com/sdr.do
