Hi,

no matter what value I bump kern.ipc.nmbclusters and kern.ipc.nmbufs to, =
I still get "requests for mbufs denied" with igb interfaces, and the =
occasional connection stall, even when dialing down hw.igb.num_queues=3D1:=


[root@laurel: ~] netstat -m
3070/1355/4425 mbufs in use (current/cache/total)
3069/773/3842/8144896 mbuf clusters in use (current/cache/total/max)

The box in question has six igb interfaces, 2x 'I210 Gigabit Network =
Connection' and 4x '82580 Gigabit Network Connection' and is running:

FreeBSD laurel.muccbc.hq.netapp.com 10.0-RELEASE-p7 FreeBSD =

root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64

Anyone have any ideas what else to try?

Thanks,
Lars
