I've been working on a Supermicro SYS-E300-9A (Intel Atom C3858,) putting together a fully virtualized router + whatever, and I'm getting around to being complete. The last step for me is routing my existing 10gbit setup through it, but I've hit a snag.

TLDR: HP Connectx-2 renders my Xenserver unstable. Problems goes away when the card is removed, or when replaced with a Dell single port Connectx-2.
