Do you have a firmware version listed on the HCL? Does the driver correspond to that firmware?

[BanchaTH]

Dear Sir

Do you have a firmware version listed on the HCL? >> How i can know firmware on HCL?

[daphnissov]

You just look at it. Use the link you yourself included in your first email. It shows you the firmware version and the corresponding driver.

I used

bnx2x version 2.713.30.v60.9 but not work.

Paste the output of vsish -e get /net/pNics/vmnicN/properties | grep Driver where vmnicN is the number representing the vmnic backed by that adapter.
