Hello,

I'd like to ask about trouble I've got with new HP server: tg3 adapter keeps losing
link every few minutes:

I can't exclude the possibility it's switch problem, but I don't have access to box now and the
switch is not managed, so I'd like to try other ways first..

Could this somehow be power management related? I don't see what else PM-related could I disable
in the bios to disable this EEE stuff.. Didn't anyone met similar problem?

the system is running Centos6 with x86_64 3.0.76 kernel

thanks in advance for any reply
