  • 1.  Network Host Adapter Uptime Between Physical Switch

    Posted Mar 17, 2016 10:26 AM

    Hi,

    Good Day,

    Network down between EXSi host and Physical Switch port for 2 hours, but from the network team they are not accepting the network down.

    Unfortunately EXSi host is standalone and not with V-Center configured,

    We are in position to find RCA to client, please advice any command line to check the between network adapter and physical Switch uptime details.


    The command executed and not get sufficient information

    /var/log/vmkernel.log
    /var/log/vmkwarning.log

    Thanks

    login via SSH to your ESXI.


    cd /var/log

    grep -i down hostd.log | less

    grep -i vmnic hostd.log | less

    Take any hits you get from those and correlate the time-stamps within vmkernel.log. Or post these hints here.
