Hi,
Long time reader/stalker but first time poster
I managed to grab myself some Chelsio S310E-CR cards off ebay with the inention of creating a direct 10Gb/s link between my main desktop and my FreeNAS server. Upon installtion in the FreeNAS box i'm able to add the interface in the GUI and assign it manually as 192.168.3.2, 255.255.255.255. In my main machine(windows 7) i installed it and downloaded the latest driver it showed up and configured it as 192.168.3.1, 255.255.255.255. (connected via a 3m twinax cable)
On Windows it shows it's connected to unidentified network and in FreeNAS it shows the link as active(as shown below in ifconfig) but i cannot ping either card or mount my CIFS share.
*EDIT* When i ping from the windows machine i just get 4x "Request timed out."
After encountering this problem i moved the card from the freeNAS box into a box with Windows Server 2008 and after adding some firewall exceptions to both machines could ping from win7 to server2008 freely and was able to transfer files as fast as my SDD could supply.
When i reinstalled the card into the FreeNAS box i chose the other avaliable pcie slot(if that was a point of failure) however i still have exactly the same issue. LEDs on both cards are green with a orange flash every 3 seconds.
This Server has been running fine for the past 9 months no problems of any kind with 2x6TB drives in Mirror. The only recent change is that i flashed the firmware of the LSI controller to p16 so i felt comfortable attaching 6x3TB harddrives in RAIDz2.
Forgive me if this exact problem has been posted previously. I have done a rather thorough seach of the forum and other sites but none of the problems have been quite the same as mine and solutions tried didn't work :/
Hardware:
NIC: Chelsio S310E-CR
Build FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201505130355
Platform Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1230 v3 @ 3.30GHz
Memory 8125MB (ECC)
Motherboard SuperMicro X10SL7-F
HDD - 2x6TB WD Red (mirrored)
- 6x3TB WD Red (RAIDz2)
Thankyou in advance for any help or suggestions.
