      UPDATE

      Everything is working perfectly.
      The total price of this configuration is less then $700 including R320, Chelsio T580-SO-CR and Intel 545 SSD
      I will lower it to $600 because I just found seller on eBay selling Chelsio T580-LP-CR for less then $200. All recommendations on the net was, that T580-LP-CR is the best choice for pfSense.
      I've got stuck for day on configuring NEXUS 3132Q-V, but was worth it. When I am done building the HA Cluster I will have the chance to test the speed and submit it to this post.

      Thank you all

        So just to confirm the cause of the issue here was the "lifecycle controller"? And only in the updated firmware version?

        Glad it wasn't a conspiracy anyway. 😉

          @stephenw10 Yes that was the problem stupid new auto firmware update on the idrac7 option
          and before that to old version of the BIOS v1.5.2 upgraded to v2.5.1 and downgraded to LC v1.1.1.18 and all seems to work fine

          Yes, sorry about that I was 24h straight trying to find the solution I am glad you are not a conspirator :)

          Thank you

              It's not a bug as far as I know. What is it connected to? Does it show the link as down? Does it comes back up if you disconnect and reconnect the link?

                  If it part of a lagg group? Usually that indicates it's been removed from the group because it was showing the link go up and down too rapidly to be actual disconnects.
                  Is there nothing logged in the system log when that happens?
                  Are you actually seeing it lose connectivity.

                    What is it connected to? What is in the logs there?

                        One more thing.. How do you install the LC without an OS installed? I can't seem to install it from the LifeCycle Controller GUI upon boot up.
