Hi Jaye,
You don't say what model of filer you are using. I have a F230 running 5.2.1 connected to a 3COM 3900 and I see output errors (but not input errors) on the filer interface and these show up as CRC (or FCS as 3COM call them) errors on the switch port. I'm seeing about 0.03% errors. Netapp support says not to worry about this level of errors.
Both are 100Mbps full duplex with no auto negotiate.
I moved the filer to a Extreme Summit S48 and a different cable run and I still see the CRC errors.

I have both my ports on a linkswitch 3000, at 100mb, full-duplex.

I too have a 3Com 3900 switch with two toasters attached: a F210 and F520. I loaded them both with 5.2.1 eight days ago. On the F520, there has not yet been an error in either direction. The F210 is exactly as above. I get just under 0.03% errors.
Could it be a class of machines? Anyone see anything similar on a F3xx series machine? -- Gerard Hickey email: Gerard.Hickey@nsc.com National Semiconductor Corporation phone: +1 207 541 6101 Advance Development Center, MS 03-03 fax: +1 207 541 6108 5 Foden Road, South Portland, Maine 04106-1706
