Hi Kais and all,

Set the bandwith limit on the vnic of one of the guests to zero.
assuming the guest's automatically created vnic is called xvm1_0:
# dladm set-linkprop -p maxbw=0 xvm1_0

Great idea! I will try this tomorrow. Thank you!

Today is not the 16th of September, so my reply is a month late, but still this doesn't seem to work for me as I'd expect:

- Little detail: Only setting maxbw to 0 temporarily seems to work:

r...@d0:~# dladm set-linkprop -p maxbw=0 xvm4_2

- Doesn't work as expected

In my xvm-based development environment, I am running several virtualized clusters. When I set maxbw=0 for the cluster interconnect interfaces to the same etherstub on all nodes, ohac still reports them as working (iow, probes are successfully transmitted):
