Everything seemed to be working fine, so I pulled the fxp for use elsewhere. At which point problems start appearing. In particular, it seems like network activity just stops every so often. Sometimes in minutes, sometimes in days. Originally I thought it was related to running out of mbufs, which I was doing, but the last time it happened netstat -m reported "0 requests for memory denied" and ditto for delayed. Taking the interface down and back up doesn't solve the problem. Rebooting does. I realize I should have grabbed the status for the card while it was down, but forgot, and have to leave for a couple of hours in about 10 minutes. So I'm going to ask for suggestions about what I should collect the next time this problem happens so that I can give a reasonable report. Ditto for suggestions on actions to take to try curing this symptom without having to reboot it that might provide clues to solving the problem.
