Hi All,
It seems in the last day or so, we've been having significant network
issues (slow response, flaky file transfers, etc.) and I wondering if
the switch (Force10) we're running on is having problems. It's worth
noting that over the weekend the rack it was in powered off for some
reason so some power spike might have gone through it. What is the best
way to check this? I've done some netstat tests on a few machines and
there seems to be a lot of retransmission going on (up to 10% for some)
but I don't really know if this is normal or not. We have a spare switch
and I was wondering if there was any cleverer way other than just
putting that in and trying it!
Thanks,
Mark
P.S. As I've never set up a switch before, was there anything needing
doing to these Force10s to get them going properly?
