A little bit late but anyways... what team mode are you using? what interconnects? you run an ipconfig after boot, are you seeing 0.0.0.0 as the IP?

Hi,

Did you receive ans answer to your question ?
Same problem for me, Network card always saying "acquiring network address"
IP network in 0.0.0.0, but I'm using Fixes IP addresses

configuration: 4 NICs Teaming (2x10 Gb/s, 2*1Gb/s mezzanine cards)
BL 460c G6 with Cisco 3120 switches

Thanks in advance for your help

Hello. Same problem - c7000 + BL460c + 2x 3120G. On server with Win2003 x64 Team Mode is Dynamic with FT 802.3ad. But on server with Win2003 32-bit version - we have to disable etherchannel on Cisco 3120g and use TLB.

Same for us.
Finally the solution is to change the switch configuration, a bit dissapointing, as this switch configuration was OK with G5 blades

Network drivers are frequently re-released. Try installing the latest drivers.

Make a great day!

Hello. Still have problem. We reinstall 3 servers from SmartStart 8.30 and then we update NCU to 9.90.1.0 and try to update "HP NC-Series Broadcom 10GbE Multifunction Driver for Windows Server 2003" to 5.2.20.0. But network driver update is failed and HP Virtual Bus Driver wasmetioned in error message. It is only on 2 of 3 servers reinstalled.
After reboot - "acquiring network address" and server is not accesible in network
