Hello,

Jody Housman has told me that we already had a hard-coded value of 
100_Full_Duplex set for both pillage and plunder.

This is what I found on pillage:
# lsattr -EH -l ent0 -a media_speed
attribute    value            description  user_settable 

media_speed  100_Full_Duplex  Media Speed  True

So, this setting did not prevent the problem from occurring.  We will 
continue to investigate to get a better understanding of the issues.  I 
will also make sure this problem and its resolution is documented.

Thanks,
Sue Starr

Hello,<br>
<br>
Jody Housman has told me that we already had a hard-coded value of
100_Full_Duplex set for both pillage and plunder.&nbsp; <br>
<br>
This is what I found on pillage:
<dl><font face="Courier New, Courier">
<dd># lsattr -EH -l ent0 -a

DOST will be tagging the ports on the ethernet switches for pillage<br>
&amp; plunder as &quot;special&quot; (ports are fixed to speak at 100Mb/s
&amp; full-duplex<br>
instead of auto-negotiate).&nbsp; We will also tag both ends of the<br>
ethernet cables for pillage &amp; plunder.<br>
<br>
Additionally, Sue will look into forcing the 100Mb/s &amp;

setting in both servers.&nbsp; We hope these changes will prevent
this<br>
ugly problem from reoccurring.<br>
