Test results for Dell Poweredge R770 with NVMe drives
-
@olivierlambert eager to test this new ISO, we have two XCP clusters in 8.2 that need upgrading in 8.3 with these cards :
- BCM57416 NetXtreme-E Dual-Media 10G RDMA Ethernet Controller
Do you think we would be impacted ?
These same servers also have I350 Gigabit Network Connectioncard (quad port)
-
I think it's only the Broadcom NIC
-
FYI we have the Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5720) in Dell R660 and Broadcom Adv. Dual 10GBASE-T Ethernet in Dell r640.
Currently have no issues with ether nic in XCP-NG 8.3

sorry for unwanted bold characters in previous post
I do confirm, 8.3 LTS installation boot sequence hungs with these two adapters:
Broadcom 57504 25G SFP28 Quad Port Adapter OCP 3.0 NIC
firmware version: 23.31.18.10 (Dell p/n 540-BCRX)Broadcom 57504 Quad Port 10/25GbE SFP28 Adapter, PCIe Full Height
firmware version: 23.31.18.10 (Dell p/n 540-BDCZ)
Leaving enabled only these ones, we have NO HUNGS during 8.3 boot:
Broadcom 5720 Dual Port 1GbE LOM
firmware version: 23.31.1 (Dell p/n 540-BDKD)Broadcom 5719 Quad Port 1GbE BASE-T Adapter PCIe Low Profile V2
firmware version: 23.31.1 (Dell p/n 540-BDRK)---- -
Yes, that's why our new ISO coming soon will get a more recent version of the driver, fixing the problem
Hang on! -
many thanks, to start our evaluation XCP-ng + XOA we wait new ISO
XCP-ng maximum hardware nic quantity (eth ports) per host is 16 ...correct ?

No pun, just wait for everyone to get back from our yearly Vates internal event

Hi,
I'm having the exact same issue.
Dell R650xs
BOSS with M2 in RAID1
Broadcom 25Gbps NIC'sGlad to find out it's not an isolated issue. All is working fine in 8.2.1 in production for almost 2 years now, but of course 8.2.1 is out of service so I'm hoping the new ISO will be out soon.
thanks,
Marc -
