Support for VMware-VMvisor-Installer-8.0.0.update03-25067014.x86_64-Dell_Customized-A09.zip

The current release of the Dell Customized image has a network through put calculation error. This error/bug was introduced in the A09 Version of 8.0U3 and there does not seem to be a way to report this or get an update.

The update process for these Image releases seems to be quarterly and waiting 90 days for a fix if the issue is not reported is a long time to wait.

We have a ticket opened with Broadcom, but the issue is not a Broadcom issue, the issue is with the Dell customized image not the Broadcom release of the build.

Is anyone else seeing this issue?

This is a direct result of the custom ISO they built with the drivers where it's now reporting via the MiB for SNMP as bytes instead of bits. This now report a 25 GB Nic pushing over 200 GB.

I have attatched screenshots below, ESXi Server alerts, switches are reporting traffic as normal
