[Ocfs2-users] ocfs2 hangs during webserver usage

[David Johle]

Well I can confirm that in my case the intel NICs are not affected by 
this bug.  Checked the EEPROM dump, as well as used the script to 
verify, and neither one indicates a problem.

On these particular servers, the iSCSI target is being accessed over 
2 NICs, one is a Broadcomm onboard, and one is an Intel PCIe 
card.  I'm using device-mapper for managing the active/active 
multipathing.  All in all I've had great performance with this setup, 
actually seeing very little overhead despite using a software initiator.
