I recently upgraded to a new MOBO and TrueNAS Scale. After the upgrade, I have been experiencing an issue with a 10gb card that I have been using. It has happened a few times now. Every couple of weeks, all traffic stops and the NIC becomes unresponsive. Rebooting the system fixes it, but it appears to be happening sporadically.

I recently upgraded the NIC firmware because I saw a few other threads about this being a firmware issue, but I am still experiencing the issue with what I believe is the latest firmware I received from QLogic's website. The nic is a Broadcom 57810 SFP. I have this same card with the same updated firmware running in two other ESXi hosts (different mobo and setup) and they don't have this issue. It just started happening after I upgraded the motherboard to a Supermicro X10DAi and upgraded to TrueNAS scale. I have been running on this setup for a few months now without any other issues other than this.

Any thoughts as to what might be causing and is there a way to fix it without replacing the NIC?
