Hi Guys
I have tried to add a dual port NIC to my Gigabyte X58 motherboard that has three Dell H200's with IT firmware on them, and seem to be out of option ROM space.
Basically, what happens is that the NIC is typically seen by the IS (2k8R2) and none of the three H200's appear. If I remove the NIC, then the H200's are all ok.
The NIC I am using is one of the 5706 iSCSI pcie dual cards and i dont think there is any way to disable the option ROM on them.
So - plan B - can I reflash the H200's and not flash a boot ROM - is that an option?
Plan C is get another dual NIC.... which would be a shame as its more cash.
Thanks in advance
David
