All,

Further to my previous messages, and just in case someone's solutioned this already...

Having disabled checksum offloading on both servers, swapped the cable, and swapped NICs (same set of 4 onboard NICs, but at least a different port) I am unfortunately still getting the below messages in my logs fairly regularly.  I understand that the digest integrity check is a pretty basic thing and unlikely to be a bug in DRBD or the kernel md5 code.  Maybe a hardware fault.  Maybe a bnx2 driver bug.

If I can't pinpoint the problem, I'll get a non-broadcom PCI NIC for each machine and try again.

Some gory details follow:

The servers are (new) Dell R710s, with Broadcom NICs.  I'm running ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS, Linux kvm-host-02 2.6.32-35-server #78-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 11 16:26:12 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux

eth2 is connected directly to eth2 via a cat5e cable.
