Emulex be2net interface initialization failed with "mbox poll timed out"

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • Emulex OneConnect 10Gbps NIC(be3) initialization failed
  • Emulex be2net interface initialization failed with mbox poll timed out
  • This looks like a problem as the second interface on a dual port card fails to initialize
