Server won't run at 1GHz.
Hi:
Facts: Proliant ML330 G3 server connected to 1 of Netgear FSM726 Switch's 2 gigbit ports.
OS is SuSE 8.0
mii-tool -v indicates max capable speed is 100base-Tx Full. I have tried to force a faster speed but the I get an invalid setting.
Additionally, I added the folowing line to \etc\modules.conf
options eth0 line_speed=1000 full_duplex=1
Restarting eth0 does not enable the faster speed.
Additionally, I tried using ethtool and still was not able to change speed beyond 100 full.
Last I tried to force the setting on the switch to 1000 Full, but the card will not autonegotiate. Any help is welcome. Thanks

Re: Server won't run at 1GHz.
Question: Is the card/driver combination approved for Suse 8.0?
Suse is on version 9 now and there may be better support in the newer version.
Speed force rarely works on 1000 BaseT cards. They much prefer auot negotiate. Check the switch you are connecting to and make sure it is also set to auto negotiate.

Re: Server won't run at 1GHz.
Interesting back story over here: http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=508069
It sounds like you've got a 100base module loaded against a 1000base card. Check with the manufacturer (should be near here somewhere :) for an updated module for SuSe 8.0
If you're running a stock kernel, it could be as easy as rmmod out the old card module, and instmod in the new one. If you've compiled a custom kernel, then you will probably be able to get source and recompile.

There have been Innumerable people who have helped me. Of course, I've managed to piss most of them off.
