I have an issue with a new deployment of ESXi 6 U2 on to new HP BL460c gen9 blades. They have 20 GIG 650 FLP Network cards.
They are configured with Flex Fabric with:
nic0 - 1gig - standard switch
nic1 - 1 gig - standard switch
nic2 - 10 gig - Distributed switch
nic3 - 10 gig - Distributed switch
When the MTU is increased on the distributed switch to 9000, nic3 goes into a down state on reboot. If the nic is manually downed and up at the console goes into an up state for some time.
Has any one seen a similar issue? There are no issues when the MTU is 1500.
