I'd like to ask for some help from the group. I work for a company
and
we're using Red Hat Linux 7.2. and we're currently running the e100
driver
and it is failing. Many times it's failed at boot and there have been
several times in a live situation while traffic is running through it.
We're not sure if it's a hardware or software problem at this point.
We're beginning to reproduce the problem by maxing out the throughput
on both the incoming and outgoing lines of the interface. We're almost
reproducing this problem at will but not quite there. We are at this
point only
after changing this driver out for the ee100pro. The e100pro driver
gave us some
known problems and we had fewer interface crashes with the eth100.
What I'd like ask is what we can do after we are able to reproduce it.
I'd
like to know all the low level facilities I can count on to use when I
can
reproduce my problem reverse engineer the failure. e.g debug and
logging facilities connected with the interface or streaming data
through it.
Can someone give me suggestions.
Thank You,
