Some guys did initial setup of servers and they moved on now we see lot of network issues on new servers

I want to find a way to compare servers ( New vs old ) to check any specific tuning which was done at network level

OS : RHEL 6.3

I suspect all you need to do is compare the contents of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ and /etc/sysctl.conf.

There's a chance other steps have been taken for tuning; for instance, the Red hat tuned-adm profiles... But I think this requires better troubleshooting steps.

If you're having an issue with NIC buffers, you can also look at the ethtool ring buffer settings on each server.

  • Glad to help. What parameter was it? – ewwhite Mar 15 '16 at 00:24
  • After debugging, found out these settings wont help to resolve existing issue but were missing on new batch of servers so its good catch, looks like 2 nic on these servers are connected to different subnets causing chaos Thanks again for pointers – DevOps_101 Mar 15 '16 at 03:18
