Hi Guys, I am new using freenas and I really need help from community.
First, let me try to explain my environment:
1 Freenas Server (i3 / 8GB / 2x500GB(mirror) for S.0 and 4x3TB(Raid 10) for storage) with two Realtek NICs using Failover
2x Vmware Server using the last version (6.5)
I was using this environment for a couple of weeks without problems, but last week, I had to transfer the last virtual machine from my old environment (KVM) to a freenas server. This VM has 1TB+ of disk usage and the copy was estimated on 3 days.
OK, I started the copy using the default realtek driver of freenas and no kind of tunnable on freenas. The copy worked fine until 89% (After 2 days) when the network of freenas server stops to responding.
When I removed the cable from nic master, the server starts to responding again. When I plugged the cable of server, it's stops. Reading many posts, I did a reboot on server and everything started to working again.
So, I decided to start the copy again, but this time, using a realtek v193 driver, downloaded from realtek and compiled on a freebsd machine. I added a tunneble to load the driver and rebooted the server again.
After 12 hours, the server died again with the same problem when I was using the default network driver.
So, I removed the failover and tried to run with only one interface. Same error again ...
Can the realtek nic be the guilt? Or there's something of tweak that I can do on freenas server to solve this?
Thanks for your help!
