This is driving me nuts and I would be grateful if anyone has any suggestions. Within my environment I have a DR cluster comprised of HP BL420c Gen 8s. On some of the servers I see two Emulex NIC's and three Intel's and on others I see only two Emulex NICs. if I perform the following command I see that the devices/NICs are actually present (see attached photo)
command ....
lspci -v | grep -A1 -I Ethernet
(see attached for output)
I was hoping when I flashed the drivers using the latest HP disk and rebuilt the boxes with ESXi 6u2 that they would suddenly be detected however they aren't . Is there some mysterious bios setting that I am missing? To the best of my knowledge no special VIB's were installed on the hosts that correctly detect the Intel NIC's so I am baffled as to what's wrong
Thanks in advance
Download latest driver from this: http://vibsdepot.hp.com/
Then check your issue.
I have already tried downloading and injecting the latest driver into the HP build disk. It was only marginally newer that the one already on the ISO, unfortunately it made no difference.
