Hi, we are seeing these errors repeatedly on a new Dell R300 server: Sep 23 15:06:29 vcomm kernel: bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting Sep 23 15:06:29 vcomm kernel: bge0: link state changed to DOWN Sep 23 15:06:31 vcomm kernel: bge0: link state changed to UP Server OS is: FreeBSD vcomm 7.3-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 7.3-RELEASE-p1 #0: Wed May 26 04:29:05 UTC 2010 root@i386-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 We have so far, changed the cable, changed the network port, and lastly upgraded the server firmware (which included some update to the NIC). But the issue continues. Info on the hardware from dmesg: bge0: <Broadcom BCM5722 A0, ASIC rev. 0x00a200> mem 0xdfdf0000-0xdfdfffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci1 miibus0: <MII bus> on bge0 No shared interrupts: # vmstat -i interrupt total rate irq16: mpt0 21776213 30 irq21: uhci0 uhci2+ 290 0 irq23: atapci0 58 0 cpu0: timer 1438708756 2006 irq256: bge0 50544776 70 cpu1: timer 1438700714 2006 Total 2949730807 4113 Network switch is Cisco, I can get the exact model if required. Is this a bug, hardware issue? Should I be worried? thanks Andy.
