We are facing the continuous reboot issue on domain controller after upgrading the enic,fnic driver upgrade and firmware upgrade from 

2.1 2a to 2.2 6d.

Window 2012 R2 ?

Did you use a host firmware package ? and updated CIMC, BIOS and adaptor ?

W2k R2 sp1

yes, we have used the firmware package to upgrade the blade.

Which blade model and I/O adaptor ?

On the interop tool

http://www.cisco.com/web/techdoc/ucs/interoperability/matrix/matrix.html

Adapter Driver   = 2.1.0.31 (FNIC) / 2.4.0.21 (ENIC) / 2.1.0.12 (NIC Teaming Driver)
Adapter Firmware = 4.0(8)

[ajaypatil1]

Yes we are using the same driver version that you have mentioned.

I assume this is a installation on the local disk ?

Are there any Windows crash dumps ?

Is Windows alone (if you would not start AD) running ?

Did you try to downgrade the drivers again (it is fully supported to have infrstructure running at 2.2.6d) ?
