Hello!
I have an issue that is literally driving me insane. I have installed Proxmox on a machine that has a 10Gtek X520-DA2 (2x 10 Gbit/s SFP+) card, and connects to my main switch with a DIGITUS Universal SFP+ DAC cable. I have the same card and cable on my OPNSense firewall machine and they work perfectly. However, on the Proxmox machine I keep having issues. It works (= I power the system on and everything boots and I can connect to it) maybe 40% of the time, the remaining 60% of the time I have to unplug and replug the SFP+ from the switch, and then everything magically works. I've tried adding a script that checks whether the vmbr0 interface has an IP when it boots (it has), a udev rule that takes down and then up again the interface, ... but still nothing. There are days I'd like to simply take the machine out of the rack and throw it around the room. It is more than three months that I have this issue, but I cannot find I way around it.... any tip to where I can seek further ideas to solve it?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Best,
Rob
