[ovirt-users] Re: random adapter (NIC) resets on oVirt Node 4.4.6

100Mbps in *and then back out* the same NIC. Otherwise it wouldn't

Hi Strahil, the server uses Intel NICs with ixgbe and igb kernel drivers. I did upgrade the firmware to the latest available one (through Dell lifecycle-contoller). I also tried replacing the network card itself but without success. As this issue did not arise when running Debian 10 or even oVirt Node before adding it to the cluster I don't think its hardware related. For my testing I mounted my oVirt Datastore manually on the fresh install of oVirt node (using the ISO) and then coping a large ISO file to the local disk. This fills the NIC up to the full 1 Gbit/s I have available there for a good 5 to 10 minutes. Also the administration through cockpit works perfectly before adding it to the cluster. As soon as I add the node to the cluster the trouble starts. 1. oVirt reports that the install has failed on this host 2. the node logs (kernel log) adapter resets on some interfaces (even ones that arent UP) 3. the engine looses connection to the host and declares it "Unresponsive" 4. the node becomes unmanageable through cockpit or ssh because the connection is lost repeatedly. 5. the fencing agent reboots the node (If fencing is enabled) 6. node comes up and gets added to the cluster (oVirt says the node is in state UP) 7. repeat from step 2 It seems that this behavior stops when I put the node into maintenance. Then I can even mount the Datastore manually and transfer large ISOs without it dropping the connection. This is all very strange and I don't understand what causes this.
