Note: "permalinks" may not be as permanent as we would like,
direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.


please look at this:

kernel: e1000: eth1: e1000_watchdog: NIC Link is Up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex

ifconfig eth1
eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:03:47:E0:EB:B1

./iperf -c 10.0.0.2

It´s obvious that it is a gbit link!!!

drbdsetup /dev/drbd0 show

max-epoch-size = 2048  (default)
max-buffers = 2048  (default)
sndbuf-size = 131070  (default)
ko-count = 0  (default)
syncer options:
rate = 153600 KB/sec
group = 1
al-extents = 257

system: suse sles9, drbd 0.7.14

And now, any ideas?

cheers
Stefan
