VM communication fail on HP broadcom network adapter

Hi All,
I have HP DL380 servers with Broadcom network adapters. I have successfully created the team and select
Dynamic as the load balancing mode. This team has selected for the virtual switch. My VMs couldn't communicate to each other. sometimes it communicates with the physical host and sometimes not.
For the troubleshooting purpose i have selected a single adapter as the stand by mode. After that sometimes VM can communicate among each other and sometimes not.
I have found the below article for the same issue.
http://www.aidanfinn.com/?p=16876
i would like to know is there any solution for the issue. Also would like to know is this a bug from Microsoft or the Broadcom?
Regards,

I have looked at various threads in the forums here but I'm still stymied why the connection seems to be ok, yet sql developer has problems with it. If I create an ssh tunnel so sql developer only has to connect to localhost it works:

Hi Ali,
This may be of varoius reasons..
Is the database that you are connecting on the same PC?
You have specified Hostname: localhost.
If not please replace it with the IP of that server.
Else please check whether the database listener is started or not. if not please start the listener.
Check the SID by tnsping command.
Hope this will help you..
Thanks

OnPlus 100 scan, shutting down Broadcom network adapter

I have recently installed an onPlus 100 in my network. During the scanning process, the system seems to cause the network adapters on a few of my servers to shut down for 3-5 seconds at a time.
This was not an issue with the server either before the onPlus was connected or after I shut it down.
Has anyone seen this?
Thanks,
Switch:
The server is plugged into a Cisco SG 300-52
One Server:
Dell PowerEdge R710
Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition SP2 (32 bit)
MS SQL Server 2000
Broadcom BCM5709C NetXtreme II GigE (x4 - only one in use)
Repeating Errors:
Broadcom BCM5709C: The network link is down. Check to make sure the network cable is properly connected.
Broadcom BCM5709C: Network controller configured for 1Gb full-duplex link.
The system detected that network adapter Broadcom...NetXtreme II GigE (NDIS VBD Client) #4 was connected to the network, and has initiated normal operation over the network adapter.

I have not seen that issue before however I have had an issue in the past where OnPlus was triggering failed login attempts to Windows Servers in the Security Logs. It's possible that the interface may be shutting down as some sort of protection mechanism though I would find that surprising. To address this issue, I would recommend entering admin domain credentials in the Device Options tab of the ON100 in the OnPlus portal for that client site.
The only other thing I could think of is if something in the SG 300-52 is shutting down the port the server is plugged into because of OnPlus scanning. One possible solution, if it's an option, is to change the port the ON100 is plugged into to a Trunk Port instead of an Access port and Trunk all the VLANs down to it. That will allow the ON100 to take a little more of a passive approach to collecting data about the network. All of our installs including Trunking the port.

SQL Developer: Failure -Test failed: IO Error: Network Adapter No Conn

SQL Developer: Failure -Test failed: IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection
Hi,
and sorry this is a really common questions and yes I did do a search, but I don't understand it.
First let me just tell you that Oracle 11g is installed on my second laptop on the same Network.
Secondly I can connect to the Database using Oracle SQL Developer on the laptop Oracle 11g is installed on.
The problem is I want to connect to the database on my main Laptop.
I put in the correct details Hostname 192.168.0.8 ( this is the laptop oracle is installed and running on)
Port 1521
SID dbarudu
****** YES I HAVE PORT FORWARDED
****** YES I HAVE ALLOWED 1521 on the FIREWALL
****** YES I HAVE EVEN SWITCHED OFF THE FIREWALL
Now one more thing you should know ... I don't know nothing about Oracle Servers ok.... so I have just installed Oracle 11g Enterprise and thought done it should be working now.
I just need to use oracle db for a project.
So keep in mind I am a total noob and terms like TNSPING etc mean absolutely nothing to me.
So please help, but help with step by step guide on how to get Oracle to let me have access from another computer.

If the Listener is working, then you should not get the error SQL-Developer error you are reporting.
The listener typically runs using the hostname and port 1521. This means it opens tcp port 1521 on all IP addresses of that platform.
The database server by default will register itself with the local listener. Thus the listener will know the database SID, the database services, whether there are dispatchers to support shared server connections and so on.
The client side needs simply to specify 3 pieces of data to connect:
- the IP of the database server
- the tcp port of the listener
- a database identifier (such as Oracle SID or service name) to connect to
It is really that simple.
If this does not work, the problem falls into 2 broad categories:
a) incorrect installation and configuration of the Oracle software (the out-of-the-box install works unless messed up)
b) some kind of networking issue
To troubleshoot any problem means reducing the complexity of the problem, eliminating multiple moving parts and focusing on specific ones, in order to isolate the problem.
For your problem, this will go something as follows:
- does the listener run? (check if the service is running and whether tcp connections are accepted on the listener port - telnet can be used for the latter)
- does the database successfully registers itself with the listener? (check the services command of the listener and relevant db initialisation parameters)
- does a local TNS (tcp network) connection work on that server? (use SQL*Plus and test on that platform client-server connectivity via tcp to the listener)
- does the client platform have connectivity with the server platform? (use ICMP and telnet to test)
- repeat the TNS test on the client platform using the same working TNS tested on the server platform
Do not use JDBC to test the connection - keep it simple and use sqlplus and the standard Oracle Call Interface (OCI). A full client version of the OCI plus sqlplus can be downloaded under the Oracle InstantClient downloads.
Finally - if you expect to simply install and use Oracle, then use the correct version. Oracle Express Edition aka Oracle XE. Installs and works out-of-the-box. The only manual config change to make is (as far as I recall) to run the listener on all IP addresses of that platform. And this required editing the listener.ora file, changing the HOST parameter and restarting the listener.
Also keep in mind that you have not presented an Oracle error code and Oracle error message. But a client application error message. And that message is pretty much meaningless - it does not point to a specific Oracle networking or Oracle server problem. To diagnose that, we expect a TNS or ORA error number.

IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection in oracle

Hi experts,
I have oracle developer days installed in my vitrual box machine. The connection to oracle datatase (11.2.0.2) contained in the oracle developer days was working fine via sql developer. I use eclipse to write some java programs to connect the database. However, somehow, I cannot connect the database via sql deveoper anymore. This is the error I got when I tried to connect it via basic connection type:
Status : Failure -Test failed: IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection
Can anybody shed a light on this issue please. Thanks a lot in advance.

Broadcom 802.11n Network Adapter not working on Windows 7 64bit

As the title suggests, my laptop (Alienware m17x) is installed with the Broadcom 802.11n Network Adapter and Windows 7 64bit Home Premium. I have had several other driver incompatibility issues with Windows 7, but those I have slowly been able to resolve. This however just cropped up after two months of successful use. Yesterday it started failing to connect to the internet, telling me that no wireless connections are available. I live in a dorm, and everyone else on my floor has successful wireless, including my Ipod Touch, PS3 and XBox 360. I called Alienware/Dell Support and we spent hours trying to fix the problem and all look well until I rebooted my laptop this morning and the same issue reappeared. When I reboot my laptop, all I get is a notification that no networks appear in range. If I uninstall the broadcom chip and let windows install it after a boot up it works until the machine is rebooted a second time. I have tried over a dozen windows 7 drivers for the chip, and about half a dozen vista drivers and they all have the same results, works on the first boot, fails every time after that

Just registered to say, on an Alienware M17x system as well running Windows 7 Ultimate, here is a link to a solution that worked exactly for me:
http://forum.notebookreview.com/alienware/436486-guide-properly-solve-wireless-connection-problems-m17x.html
All I did was section I.a. If the link is down, I copied the only section that I needed to follow out of this guide, in order to get my wireless to work repeatedly without having to uninstall the wireless driver every single reboot. Now it works perfectly,
already connected to a wireless network on startup.
I.a. Disable Device sleep on disconnect
Some newer Nvidia Ethernet drivers have a feature called Device sleep on disconnect. This is the culprit. Normally, it should only put the Ethernet adapter to sleep when the cable is disconnected, but it's buggy and thus kills the wireless connection as
well.
Follow these steps to disable this feature on your Nvidia Ethernet Adapter:
1. Open the Windows Device Manager by hitting Win+Pause, then click on Device Manager on the left side.
2. Double-click on Network adapters.
3. Double-click on NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller (yes, that's the wired Ethernet adapter indeed).
4. Click on the Advanced tab.
5. Select Device sleep on disconnect.
6. Set the Value to Disabled.
7. Click OK and wireless should work again (might require a reboot afterwards, but probably not).

Server 2012 R2 - The system failed to register host (A or AAAA) resource records (RRs) for network adapter

We seem to be having an issue recently after introducing new Windows Server 2012 R2 servers where they fail to register DNS correctly. The Windows Firewall is off and the servers are on the same VLAN with no firewalls between them.
When I do an ipconfig /registerdns or wait 24 hours for the system to try we get the following error:
The system failed to register host (A or AAAA) resource records (RRs) for network adapter
with settings:
Adapter Name : {4A0ECF05-193F-4BEA-AA46-BEC593BA752B}
Host Name : SRV-DATA
Primary Domain Suffix : internal.local
DNS server list :
192.168.0.50, 192.168.0.42
Sent update to server : <?>
IP Address(es) :
192.168.0.99
The reason the system could not register these RRs was because the DNS server contacted refused the update request. The reasons for this might be (a) you are not allowed to update the specified DNS domain name, or (b) because the DNS server authoritative
for this name does not support the DNS dynamic update protocol.
To register the DNS host (A or AAAA) resource records using the specific DNS domain name and IP addresses for this adapter, contact your DNS server or network systems administrator.
On our DNS server we have set for the internal.local zone Secure Updates only so that looks good because it is Active Directory that should be handling this authentication to update the record I assume. Just to mention that when also doing an ipconfig /regsiterdns
the update fails within a few seconds.
Source: DNS Clients Events
Event ID: 8018
User: NETWORK SERVICE
This issue is only affecting Windows Server 2012 R2 clients and testing with Windows Server 2008 R2 clients works no issues. So is this a mis-configuration or a bug with Windows 2012 R2? I have checked all DNS settings on client / server which all look good
to me so reaching out now to see if anyone has any ideas?
Environment:
- Windows Server 2012 R2 Domain Controllers (Forest/Domain Levels 2012 R2)
- Windows Server 2012 R2 Client machines (Physical and Virtual)
- Windows Server 2008 R2 Client machines (Physical and Virtual)

The zone is configured as "Secure Only"
The PDC is the SOA for the zone
I dont have a packet capture from the DC, only the client.
The query you asked me to run is too long to paste in here, however this is the DNS zone it cannot update:

HOW TO RESOLVE(Test failed: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection)

Hii
I want to create new databse as sysdba in jdev.I followed the steps as given in
Oracle JDeveloper 11g Release 2 Tutorials - Designing and Building Database Tables
In step 7 create database user and database connection, I am not able to do that and getting the error
(Test failed: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection).
Please help me.

Hi,
Could you please provide all value you pass to the connection properties on the connection creation panel? First of all, you should choose "Generic JDBC" as the connection type in order to use BDB SQL JDBC driver.

K9VGM - network adapter occasionally failing

Hi friends,
I have a new computer based on a K9VGM board. Everything is running fine until after some random number of hours - between 6 - 80 hours, when the network adapter (on the motherboard) suddenly fails. It may have to do with the network load, but it doesn't seem to be related to the temperature in the room.
When it fails, everything else on the machine is running fine, except for the network adapter. I can't control it all from inside windows, any "disable" or "repair" on the network connection or network adapter fails, and the window just sits there. It seems like the OS can't communicate with this piece of hardware at all. After a reboot the computer runs fine again, until it happens the next time.
This is actually my second K9VGM motherboard in this machine - I returned the first one to the reseller, with this error. They supposedly tested it, and confirmed the problem, and sent me a new one - which has the same problem...
All drivers and updates should be applied, according to the MSI live update tool.
Any tips on ho wto proceed? I am not so keen on sending it back again, to receive another MB with the same issue. I am tempted to just buy a cheap NIC PCI card and put in the box...

I have held off on doing anything on this - and now the machine has actually been running without any network problems for more than a week - so maybe it was just the previous board that was faulty, and the new one had a temporary hiccup (not reoccuring problems).

"Failed to install network adapter - check WINBOM"

Hello,
two weeks ago my network adapter and my soundcard ran away. I brought the laptop to an IBM premium partner, where the mainboard was changed with a notice all would be ok, but with a hint of the service technican that I should try to recover; the problem is still not solved. Yesterday I recovered from a very old version, when the network adapter and sound card worked properly. Since then my sound card works, but only with cracks. That is of course not acceptable. The network card does not work anyway.
When I boot my laptop with the ACCESS IBM button I get an error message from FACTORY.EXE "Failed to install network adapter -- check WINBOM"
I checked them, but there is no factory.exe on my hdd, as well as there is no winbom.ini on my hdd. I only found the and empty entry winbom in the registry.
In the system manager there is no network adapter listed (instead of the wireless ones). No way to install one.
I do not know what to do now. May someone think there is a solution available for my thinkpad or should I sent it to IBM/Lenovo?
The machine is a T43p 2668 PEG.
Cheers,
Herwig
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Welcome to the forum!
I'm surprised that the Business Partner hasn't offered to re-install the OS for you, but then again it may be a local practice that I wouldn't be familiar with.
Try borrowing/downloading a copy of a "live" Linux CD (Mint works out of the box on any T43/p with ATi) and see whether the issues persist there.
If they do, hardware is defective and you'll need to send it back in for another repair.
If they don't, re-installing XP from scratch, after saving the important stuff on media, is the way to go IMHO.
Good luck and let us know.

Broadcom 802.11ac Network Adapter Drivers

Hi, I believe the drivers for my network adapter could be out of date and I am unable to find anywhere to download the drivers, would anyone be able to direct me to where I can download drivers for the Broadcom 802.11ac Network Adapter found in my Alienware 18 laptop, it would be greatly appreciated.
Current Driver;
Network Adapter : Broadcom 802.11ac Network Adapter
Driver Version : 6.30.95.48
Driver Date : 05/03/2013
Thanks, Depo.

Add me to the list of people with issues with the Broadcom 802.11ac... I have two identical Alienware 17s, one suffers from constant Wireless Adapter resets. very aggravating anywhere from 3 to 10 minutes I am discoed and then moments later reconnected.
Additionally, I have seen the major frame stutters, but I just associated that to the WLAN resetting or getting ready to.
I have tried updating Drivers, I uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled them, I have disabled and enabled the device, I have spent at least four hours on the Dell Troubleshooting pages looking for a resolution, so far nothing has resolved the issue.
I'm at the point I'm thinking it is the Broadcom 802.11ac Adapter
The second Alienware 17 has worked without a single issue.
I could use a little help on this one.

Trying to set-up the network adapter in Solaris 11 under Hyper-V fails

I was using Virtual Box to run Solaris 11 for testing purposes, however VB was disappointing as my VM hanged too often so now I am evaluating Hyper-V under Windows 8 Pro. If I can get the network to work I will use Hyper-V even if it lacks seamless mouse
and keyboard integration. So, I installed Solaris 11 in Hyper-V but I cannot get the network to work. What I have done:
- I have created a Virtual Switch of type External with Virtual Switch Manager
- I have created a Legacy Network Adapter for my virtual solaris machine
- in Windows 8 I have created a Bridge for my WiFI NIC and the Virtual Switch
I can access the internet from my host machine (windows 8)but I cannot do it from the guest (solaris)
If I type "ipadm" in my solaris's terminal I can see that the NIC is listed but it has no IP address. So how can I assign an IP address to the Legacy Network Adapter?
Thanks

Hi Brian,
Thanks for the reply. I have managed to get networking working by creating a legacy card attached to a virtual switch, but I have not used the bridging anymore, instead I simply shared in the host OS the wifi connection to the virtual switch. This way it works.
Now I have another problem with the Solaris guest OS not seeing the SCSI controller, but I'll open a new thread for this after some more testing.
Thank You
Codrut

Applications communication without network adapter

Is it possible to communicate two executable applications on the same machine that does not have network adapter installed?

I've already find it for win NT but I don't know where to look it for win95. Anyway, thank you very much for the good idea [I mean using of virtual adapter. ].

If you're sure that you have a Broadcom BCM57xx
device installed in the machine, then you should have a look at
"prtconf -pv" output, locate the Ethernet device, and check the
"vendor-id" / "device-id" property for the NIC.
If the Broadcom device is compatible with Sun's "bge" driver, you
can try to install an addition driver binding entry for your device,
using the update_drv(1M) command
update_drv -a -i '"pciVVVV,DDDD"' bge(where VVVV and DDDD is the pci vendor / device id found in
prtconf -pv output).
