Disable azure network accelerator

Recently, I came across an issue in azure QA account, the credit was getting utilized more than the expected numbers, because of this the instances were shutting down before the due date.

This issue was finally addressed after couple of  research. The problem was with the network accelerator this was consuming a huge amount of credit.

When tried to disable the network accelerator, it showed an error as this is supported for VM series D/DSv2, D/DSv3, E/ESv3, F/FS, FSv2, and Ms/Mms only.

I came across a KB article to execute following command in azure shell to disable network accelerator.

az network nic update --name --resource-group --accelerated-networking false

In the above command line, replace nic_name and resource_group_name with existing names mentioned in your azure portal.

Hope this helps you.

Happy computing... :)

Hi,

Wireless driver installation for Toshiba Tecra z40.

 sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic build-essential

wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/backports/stable/v3.19-rc1/backports-3.19-rc1-1.tar.gz

tar -zxvf backports-3.19-rc1-1.tar.gz

cd backports-3.19-rc1-1

make defconfig-iwlwifi

make

sudo make install

And you will need firmware

wget https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/_media/en/users/drivers/iwlwifi-7260-ucode-23.15.10.0.tgz

tar zxvf iwlwifi-7260-ucode-23.15.10.0.tgz

sudo cp iwlwifi-*.ucode /lib/firmware

Reboot

If you realize that your wifi doesn't work in the future, it is likely that a kernel update occured and you will need to

cd backports-3.19-rc1-1

make clean

make defconfig-iwlwifi

make

sudo make install

Ubuntu 10.04 ethernet controller issue - Dell Optiplex

After the installation of Ubuntu 10.04 on Dell optiplex 790, we found that the Ethernet controller is not working on it.


After some research I found that there are no Ethernet driver e1000e was installed as there was a bug in that & resolved very soon.

The driver e1000e installation steps as follows.

1. Download the driver e1000e.
2. unzip the package.
3. Make a cd to the src folder inside the e1000e folder.
4. execute make command before that ensure gcc installed.
5. execute make install command.
6. execute modprobe e1000e to add the module.
7. Now you should see the network should be working fine.

 We found this issue only in 10.04 as we were using this  distribution version frequently. We have only tested this on Ubuntu 10.04.

Happy Networking...Enjoy... :)
