GBE2C

we have encountered broadcast storm on a GBE2c network.The 2 GBE2c blade switches in C7000 are running version 2.0 with PVST enabled for multiple vlans. Both switch are externally connected with Cisco switch with PVST enabled.

I suspect the STP on GBE2c is not working for some reasons.
Once we disabled one of the external trunk to Cisco switch , all become stable.

I want to find out if this a bug related issue with the f/w version.

I appreciate for any feedback. config is attached
Can anyone point me to any release notes to check this version out.

Re: GBE2C

Please verify if you are using HP Network utility to team NICs.

I had a problem in an airport where i was deploying blades: i cloned an "already Teamed" machine and (since the "virtual" MAC generated the first time i team the NICs obv.ly doesn't change during the clone) it began to Storm packets immediatley.

Since i disjoin the team on the 2nd machine, everything was normal again.
