First thanks for the reply. Where the server sits the NOC had an upgrade and they went to all new gigabit switches. So when I try to do any transfers from this server (or from any of the VMs on the server) I get speeds that make a 56K modem look like lightspeed. The server is not overloaded as there is only one production VM on the system that is just doing a bunch of telnet (well sssh ) sessions. The load average on the VM never goes above 0.00. I asked our NOC folks and they said to make sure the NIC is set to full Duplex. So I started checking and saw the card was set to 100mb and half duplex. Thus started my journey. I have been on with HP for the past 1.5 hours while they step me through all the things I have tried. I was hoping there was someone out there that might have come across this already.
