We have 3 control domains with 4 or 5 guest ldoms each all running solaris 10u7
fully patched to the recommended level. All ldoms are built from the same
template. 2 of the ldoms seem to have issues with 2 Dell boxes running broadcom
suite teamed nics. The Dell boxes are running web front ends for oracle
databases running on the ldoms. Every 10 - 30 secs the web front ends lose
connection. Running an arp -a on the ldoms show that the mac addresses for the
dell boxes keep changing. To further complicate things the problem only exists
between each pair ldom1 to dell1 and ldom2 to dell2. Running test from any
other hosts to or from the dell boxes or the ldoms shows 100% connection.
I have shutdown the oracle databases and the web front ends and the issue still
exists. i have tried setting the mac address in the ethers table to no avail.
arp -a still shows a changed mac address when pinged from the dell boxes.
