NIC drivers and settings

Refer to the following topics for important information about NIC driver updates for your hypervisor host and NIC settings for the QoreStor virtual machine.

Hyervisor host NIC driver updates for VMQ

Before deploying the QoreStor virtual machine, you may need to update certain hypervisor host NIC drivers to support the VMQ feature. Check your Hypervisor host NIC feature list and update the driver to the latest version as needed. For example, you should update the Broadcom NetXtreme I and NetXtreme II Ethernet adapter driver to 17.6.0 (or later) to add VMQ support; otherwise, you might experience performance degradation during normal operations.
