Hi Bill,

Are you using Intel Pro1000 NIC's in the server(s)?  If so, installing the
ProSet 2 utilitity cleared this up for us.  It will show the "old" adapter
and allow you to remove it gracefully.  We saw the same issue, but it was on
a different backup product (not TSM).  If you are not using Intel NIC's,
then maybe a similar utility exists for yours?  (i.e. I know Broadcom has a
util as well that looks almost identical to Intel's)
