Hi
I am using Intel XL710 for SRIOV.
I am seeing the ethtool counter of port.tx_dropped_link_down is increasing and yesterday the server got link flap for several times.
7/6 port.tx_dropped_link_down: 10601
7/9 port.tx_dropped_link_down: 18021
I am wondering if there is a relationship between counter port.tx_dropped_link_down and link down.
Do someone knows the meaning of port.tx_dropped_link_down?
I didn't find any valid information about this
Thank you
