set spantree portfast
- Jumbo frames: Set port jumbo
- Flow Control:
     > set port flow control receive desired
Questions:
1. Where I have to configure flow control? only on the SAN ports and NIC servers? or server ports too?
2. Unicast Storm control: how can i configure this option?
Thanks

We are having the same exact problem. We've done what you've tried with no luck also. Strange thing is that in another building we have the same setup but only with a 6148V blade and that Tandberg has no issues. We're using a 6148AF with the one we're having problems with. We've tried with a 6348 blade and it works fine. I'm thinking it's something with the 6148AF firmware (ver. 8.2(2)).
Were you able to solve your problem?
