Re: Updating NIC drivers and Network Config Utility
I can understand some amount of down time from the NIC since when you are updating the drivers I would expect .dll registrations to change or something along those lines but to have it break and not work again after the install seems sloppy at best.

Re: Updating NIC drivers and Network Config Utility
I did however just try one of my systems with the 7.5.1 PSP bundle via the VCR Agent on a Windows 2003 server and it went pretty smooth. I lost 3 packets doing the driver update and 1 packet for the Teaming util. Are you seeing that kind of loss or greater when updating?

Re: Updating NIC drivers and Network Config Utility
In Win2K the timing was such that Windows would actually disable the NIC permanently requiring the removal and rediscovery of the NIC via Device Manager to bring it back. Win2k3 addresses that better and it is not as much of a problem.
Simply put this isn't just with Hp NIC drivers, it is with all NIC Drivers. There is a Microsoft KB article that discusses it.
I can't address the teaming issue. I have seen some instances where the team was not broke and others where it was. I never could understand it.
