Case was solved by adding a second CPU.

Hi,

I own a Supermicro X9DBU-iF board (up-to-date BMC/BIOS) with a rsc-r1uu-ue16 riser.

I am trying to make it detect an Intel XL710-BM1 Quad-Port 10G SFP+ PCIe 3.0 x8 NIC and/or an Intel 82599ES Dual-Port 10G SFP+ PCIe 2.0 x8 (up to date firmware) without success. The card never appear in the list of device (checked with lspci under Ubuntu 18 and Windows device manager).

I tried to change the BIOS PCI-e settings (to any combination, auto/x8x8/x16/x4x4x4x4/GEN1 to GEN3).

Both cards work fine in other servers (HPE, Dell and Intel servers).
A PCI-e video card works fine with the same board and riser.

I'd like to downgrade the BIOS but could not find an older version.
Supermicro's support is useless, the board is not supported anymore.

Any idea what could I try next ?



Thank you in advance,
