When server (G6,G8) in hp encloser try to boot via pxe and there is no image on pxe server or the name of image is wrong, server start to boot from local hard disk and in this moment whole switch stop working. There is no communiaction on other ports . There is nothing in logs except info about port down on this server. When the server is turn off switch works ok.. there is some bug or feature in this switch ? Both switches in encloser are connected to the same upstream switch. Another servers and switches works correct with this scenario. The problem is only with hp encloser and switch within GbE2c

Thanks for any advice or info ?
