Broadcom BCM5708 and Virtual Server Issues
I was helping one of our customers with Microsoft Virtual Server Host Clustering and we faced a strange problem with network connectivity.
As per Broadcom their BCM5708 (NetXtreme_II) has issues with the Virtual Server and they have a workaround which is disable IPMI using a Broadcom utility.
We did that and everything was working ok when just couple days after Broadcom came up with a new version of their card driver correcting the problem.
So if you are facing problems with broadcom cards and virtual server, please check their website and download the latest driver version.
