Hi All,
must be loosing my mind, but just in case i missed something:
Recently bought a few of the Mellanox connectx-2 EN 10G , and Cisco's DAC cable
Also bought an Intel x520 DA2
so just for fun and games ( and while rebuilding,silencing and sorting my home cabinet) i wanted my OmniOS storage servre and my ESX 5.5 to start running 10G
OmniOS doesn't like Mellanox Connectx-2 , so the intel is in there, running ip 10.x.4.1/24 for port 1
Esx has the Connectx-2 EN card, and has been configured at 10.x.4.200/24
DAC is running in between the OmniOS box and the ESX, so they are directly connected
Both have no gateway, and i have enabled the maximum MTU of 15500
Both links show up, no errors, both can ping themselves, however no joy ping each other..
i updated the ESX driver to MEL-mlnx-en-1.9.9.0-1OEM.510.0.0.799733-1551173, left the firmware of both devices as is.
still no joy
did i miss something ?
