If the latter means that the servers are physically moved as opposed to a new one being allocated this implies that re(4)/rgephy(4) isn't the sole factor responsible for this problem. In any case it would be helpful to have the corresponding dmesg bits as the Linux counterpart does some black magic for certain hardware versions when setting the media manually but re(4) doesn't which might be relevant in this scenario.
