HP BL460 Blade installation ESXi 6.0 virtual Machine network loss problem

Recently found on HP Blades deployed on the virtual machine, after the blade restart (abnormal power loss caused) virtual Machine network communication failure, the performance is as follows:

• Communication between the same blade virtual machine network is normal;

• Communication anomalies between different blade virtual machine networks;

• Blade and external network communication anomalies

Later on, ESXi SSH service, manually set the IP address for the physical network card, and found that the external network is not connected, and the blade is not straight through.

ESXCLI network NIC list view NIC information esxcli network IP route IPv4 list view route (IPv4) ESXCLI network IP DNS server List view dnsesxcli n Etwork IP interface IPv4 get view IP configuration (IPv4) ESXCLI Network IP interface IPv4 set–i vmk0-i 192.168.137.223-n 255.2 55.255.0-t static #为vmk0接口配置ip地址和子网掩码.

At this point, the other blades on the same knife frame are installed on the Linux system, and the corresponding network card communication is completely free of problems. Is there a problem with the blade NIC and 4 blades at the same time?

As a result, the blade restarts and hangs on the CentOS 7 live disc, setting the IP address for the corresponding network card, and communicating with the outside world is normal. So, only to suspect that the problem is esxi itself, so after reloading the virtual machine network is normal.

Later, the lab power outage, and the virtual machine network access is not normal problem, but another set of environment deployment of the same version of the vsphere environment query no problem, the same physical hardware and ESXi version, after comparison is only normal environment installed is the HP customized ESXi installation files, The official VMware installation files are used in the unusual environment.
