HP Network Configuration Utility 7 question:

steveb_1 — Thu, 20 Oct 2005 00:05:12 GMT

We have this utility installed on a DL360 and I can't find out any info on this problem:

We have 2 NIC's teamed. One has a red cross on it and the team status is downgraded (yellow). The nic with the cross failed Rx heartbeat on the information tab, there's also way less daat transferred In/Out in the Statistics tab than the other NIC. The other NIC seems to be working fine. Do I have a faulty NIC? How can I check?

The server does alot of data transfer over the network and it seems slower, consistent with the NIC being faulty.

Thanks for your help!
Steve

Steve:

I would try breaking the team, then removing the NIC from Device Manager and re-detecting it to see if that gets rid of the red cross. If so, then re-team.

Make a great day!

thanks Roger, your suggestion helped. I dissolved and rebuilt the team. I also had an issue with network cables that contributed, but your help fixed the problem.

Much appreciated!

Really Answer is right but it is not solving problem.
Problem is that it happen very often
from one SupPack to another.

What type NIC are you using?
Did you upgrade the firmware to the required level for the drivers?
