Perhaps iperf can help you for identify this problem.
When i have this sort of failure under Solaris, i use iperf for load
bandwidth and set different TCP window size. During the test, i use snoop
for see at what moment the problem appear come.

hmmm ... I have not fiddled with the interface at all before ...

I have now disabled HW flow-control ... maybe that helps

Hi Tobi,

I had a similar problem a while ago, when I was resetting the maxbw property 
without taking the interface down. The global zone could not communicate over 
that interface anymore, while the zones where all happy. Taking the interface 
down and up again solved my issue, too.

Cheers,
Steffen

[OmniOS-discuss] igb0 'hangs'

2014-01-19 Thread Tobias Oetiker
I just had an odd thing happening to my r151008 server. It suddenly
stopped communicating over its igb0 interface ...

Upon further investigation I found:

a) several KVM guests talking over the same physical interface were
   still happily chatting

b) logging into the guests and trying to reach the server over that
   route did not work either.

c) accessing the server via the hardware console revealed that it
   was working and did not seem to realize that igb0 was having a
   problem. At least dmesg did not show anyithing interesting.

   once I did

   # ipadm down-addr igb0/v4static
   # ipadm up-addr igb0/v4static

   the interface started working again ...

any idea what has happened here ?

cheers
tobi
