ESX 3.0.2 on DL 360 G5 bad network performance

like-a-mike — Wed, 07 Nov 2007 02:08:02 GMT

Hi

I've installed ESX 3.0.2 on a DL360 G5 and setup a W2K3 Standard Virtual Machine. As soon as I try to copy a large file from a network location to the VM the copy process starts at about 25% of a 1Gbps link but after 10 seconds drops to about 4% and remains there. Has anyone else encountered this problem so far?

Best regards, Markus.

Hi

as it is a VMware ESX Server, the M$ driver does not work properly...
