I am using the ce interface on my Solaris 9 server and there is significant packet loss when transmitting large packets. Does anyone have a fix for this?
have you patched the machine with some newer patch cluster? i remember some problems with ce interfaces which are fixed by patches... also check the cabel and the switch port settings... if this is a new problem and not something that was always there, a hardware problem might be more likely.
I've installed the 9_Recommended patch cluster and the problem still persists. This has been a problem for a few months. I will check out the Oracle website to see if there is anything there regarding a patch.
Check your duplex setting :
The output has the following meaning:
link_up - 0 down, 1 up
link_speed - speed in Mbit/s
link_duplex - 1 half duplex, 2 full duplex, 0 down
Following will set interface to 100-FD, Forced config. Enable autoneg if you wish to use it.
You have to make relevant changed on switch side also
Beware that forced configurations like the one suggested are a very common root cause of networking issues and are only advised if you are sure there won't be a mismatch risk with the other connected end. Resetting to the default, i.e. auto-negotiation, is almost always a safe bet. Unless you are using old routers/switches with bogus firmwares, there should be no need to force the speed or the duplex mode.
The settings of the interface are below. These settings are forced. When I use auto-neg the speed of the interface drops to 10 half duplex even though it should auto-neg to 1000 full, so I can't use auto-neg. We don't know why this happens either.

I have 4 network ports on our T5240 sun server.
all but 1 gives packet losses (nxge1)
nxge0 gives on average 50% packet loss, very bad.
nxge2 gives on average 1-2% packet loss.
nxge3 gives on average 20% packet loss.
Is there a tool or something to help me find the problem? (11 Replies)
I am experiencing a problem where under a dial condition I am experiencing packet loss, which is failrly normal, but the response to the packet loss is taking bewteen 6 and 10 seconds. Could someone please advise what the industry standard is on the response time under a packet loss senario. (1 Reply)
