Hi all,
I have the strangest issue here: I upgraded my Dell T300 system
("[i]server[/i]") from 8GiB to 16 GiB memory. When I boot snv 130 (and at least
127) with more than 8 GiB of installed memory outbound network traffic is impossible.

When I ping the [i]server[/i] the following happens:
On the [i]server[/i] the arp entry for the [i]client[/i] is set.
On the [i]client[/i] the arp entry for the [i]server[/i] is [b]never[/b] set.
Networking between dom0 and domU and between dom0 and zones works. Networking
between [i]client[/i] and domU/zones shows the errors described above.
What about client <=> dom0?

I tried snv 130 and 127 (XVM). Both showed the same behavior: No network with
12 or 16 GiB, stable network with 8 GiB. snv 130 [i]without[/i] xvm works with
16 GiB of RAM installed.
Swapping the memory modules does not alter the effect.
Has anybody experienced this? What can I do to get it to work?
No. What is the dom0 NIC? Have you tried snooping on the vnic
to see what is moving through?
I am guessing the NIC your using doesn't support 64-bit
DMA addresses and there isn't enough low memory in dom0?
