    APC 0M-756H 2U UPS slide rails - fasteners?

    Right. But what length of M5 bolts should I need to secure the UPS and the CSE-846 chassis to the rails? I feel 20mm is too short.

    APC 0M-756H 2U UPS slide rails - fasteners?

    Gotcha. So I need another four bolts (at least 20mm long) to secure the UPS rack ears to the front of the rail. Tbh, I do have the 8 bolts and conical washers for this rail kit as I got this kit brand new. What I don't have are the bolts/washers that screw the UPS rack ears to the front of the...

    APC 0M-756H 2U UPS slide rails - fasteners?

    I see. Isn't an M5 too tight of a fit on a 10-32 screw hole though? If I needed a bolt to secure my UPS to this rail, what length should I be getting?

    APC 0M-756H 2U UPS slide rails - fasteners?

    Any updates here please? I'm reading that they're either 10-32 or 10-24 screws so I'm really wondering where you got the M5 info.

    Hi. Where did you get the M5 answer? Or did you test this yourself?

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    These are the extendable L rails, right? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0060RUVBA/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_WDS2PT57CJ3C13E02RZT With those, can you still use the front ears in front of the front L bracket holes?

    Are you selling the kit?

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    Yeah, they are impossible to find. Will it be better to maybe just mount a 2-post shelf at the rear of the rack to support the rear of the switch and still use the ears in front of the switch?

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    Do you guys have any alternative mounting kit that can be used to mount the ICX6610 on a 4-post rack?

    ConnectX-4 LX SR-IOV Config

    I'm talking about this doca-ofed 12.5 and I followed the doca host installationg guide. And because the latest kernel of pve 9.0 is not in the list of supported kernel of doca host, I had to do an extra step of using doca-kernel-support in the doca extra package. I haven't noticed anything...

    ConnectX-4 LX SR-IOV Config

    Ok, I was able to install OFED in my new PVE. After enabling the VF's on the OFED driver, I can confirm that the MACs aren't really assigned and that I need to assign them manually. Is it normal to keep the PF bound to the host (for management) and just passthrough the VF's to the different VM...

    ConnectX-4 LX SR-IOV Config

    Gotcha. So if Proxmox doesn't assign a MAC, then it is up to me to assign one statically to every VF as it needs a MAC to switching, of course. And if there's a hardware switch inside the NIC, then VLAN's aren't really needed if the PF is connected to an physical access port and if there's no...

    ConnectX-4 LX SR-IOV Config

    Did you check that section of the Nvidia article though? It says to assign MACs. What is that for? Also, how is traffic segregated for each VF when they reach the physical port? VLANs? So a PF with multiple active VF's should always be configured as trunk? Kinda like a router on a stick model?

    ConnectX-4 LX SR-IOV Config

    Ahh I see. Do you know why CX4 VF's have MACs while CX3 VF's don't?

    ConnectX-4 LX SR-IOV Config

    CX4-LX as mentioned in the title :) FWIW, I'm trying to install DOCA-OFED right now on my new Proxmon install and it looks like it does not support the latest kernel. Is it always good to install OFED instead of just relying on the stock OS driver (mlx5 in my case)? What do you mean the CX3...

    ConnectX-4 LX SR-IOV Config

    So I think I have a good grasp of how to configure SR-IOV using Nvidia's guide here and I was able to show the VF's already. The only thing I can't get my head to wrap around on is step 7 under section 2 (Enable SR-IOV on the MLNX_OFED Driver). Why do you need to change the MAC address of every...

    Firmware package for Samsung SM883/MZ7KH3T8HALS

    @DarkServant I just got 2 x 960GB Samsung PM883's from reddit and they have these info: Device Model: Samsung MZ7LH960HAJR-00005 Firmware Version: HXT7B04Q In your repo, I see that the HXT7B04Q_NF.bin is the latest firmware there. Does this mean I already have the latest and that I have a...

    BPN-SAS3-846EL SAS3 backplane firmware update problem

    I was able to update my backplane without any issues. For more details about the process, watch this video from ArtOfServer. The ReleaseNote.txt that came from SuperMicro support still has the outdated instructions that bricked a lot of people's backplanes. Even though I already gave them a...
