Dear All,
I came across an interesting issue when I installed HPE STK v. 11.20 (Scripting Toolkit) to automate servers deployment.
The server hardware is HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen10 with two network cards :
SOLARFLARE FLAREON ULTRA SFN8522-PLUS NETWORK ADAPTER PCIE 3.1 X8 10 GIGABIT SFP+
After starting the HPE STK boot image from PXE (Linux installation) the network devices are not present.
For networking we use only Solarflare cards. The internal 1Gb Ethernet controller is disabled.
The lspci command shows the cards present, but "ip add" or "ifconfig -a" show only localhost interface.
The HPE STK User Guide tells to use ./loadnet.sh script but the output of this command is that the interfaces were not found. The sfc module is not loaded.
Do I need to build my own kernel (vmlinuz) and new initrd and add hp tools to it, or am I missing something?
This seem to be a drivers issue to me. Any hint would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Greg
