Switch auto-negotiates to flow control - will this be a problem?

Good morning!

We're moving ahead with our iSCSI initiative. We're using an HP ProCurve 2824 switch carved up into three VLANs. The port settings are auto-negotiating to flow control on the iSCSI VLAN.

We haven't had problems so far, but I'm moving two servers to the iSCSI today, and plan more iSCSI traffic soon. So, if there are performance issues, this is one place I'll look.

Anyone have any input on flow-controlled ports on this switch?

Thanks in advance!
