How to reconfigure Cards installed in PCI slots

Hi All
My customer has OEL linux. installed on his HP DL380 G7 server. It has 4 Emulex LPe11002 dual port cards installed. The cards in PCI slot 3 and 5 are needed for network connection.
So he needs to configure the cards in PCI slot 3 and 5 to be used for the network using port 0 on the cards.
Any guidance help would be appreciated.
Thanks

those are HBA FC cards
What protocol your costumer want to have on those cards?
IPoFC ?if yes, I haven't done my self, how ever, I did read about time ago, and looks like due the costs of the hardware/switch, all the progress went to 10GE/24GE and infini band.
not sure if IPoFC is something in the normal skill set of a linux sysadmin.
What's the speed of those FC cards and switches?

  • On-board sound card failing. Will BIOS let me add a sound card into the PCIE slot?

    On-board sound card failing, consistently locking everything, (yes, I updated all drivers, codecs) so want to put in new sound card. Will the BIOS let me add a sound card into the PCIE slot? (of course after disabling the ReakTek onboard sound) I don't see an option to choose PCI or PCI-E in the setup screen (F10 at boot) for audio.

  • Won't really see a video card in the PCI slots

    I have a G4 MDD 1.23 GHz. I have a 32 MB video card in the AGP slot, but I also have 2 PCI 128 MB video cards lying around.
    Every time I try to throw a PCI video card in, though, I have problems. The image is only 640 x 480 grayscale, nothing else. I tried to change the settings, but those are the only options.
    I have a 3DFX Voodoo 2 and a TwinTurbo 128. Do I need drivers? Does the MDD not support video cards in the PCI slots? What's wrong with this picture?

    For what it's worth, here's a few quotes:
    [IX Micro Twin Turbo 128 video card, and I understand that OS X does not like that particular card|http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg43189.html]
    [The TwinTurbo cards are no longer supported by OS X (10.3).|http://forums.macosxhints.com/archive/index.php/t-30258.html]
    [Just think of this along the lines of 3dfx's unsupport for the Voodoo3 on Macs.|http://www.insidemacgames.com/news/story.php?ArticleID=4213]

  • Graphics card on secondary PCIe slot PUE 975X

    I changed my graphics card slot to the secondary PCI express slot. But now none of my operating systems will boot correctly with the nvidia graphics driver. Only when set on failsafe mode or vesa drivers (linux), is the only way to render the desktop environment. Is there any way to have my graphics card on the 2nd slot and for it to work correctly? I am using a Nvidia Geforce 6800GS.

    You are right. Using the 975X PUE, you can use 2 nVidia cards in the PCIe 16X slots(they will run at 8x) and should be able to be used with 3 monitors.  The 2 slots can be used in a crossfire configuration(2 ATI cards);ATI's answer to SLI. Using nVidia cards, you should be able to use 2 PCIe cards and get the 3 monitors since they obviously would not be in crossfire(and not in SLI since the board can not do SLI). Your PCI card is an ATI chipset and the PCIe card is nVidia. Since you have both nVidia and ATI drivers installed and being used, I think you maybe getting a conflict (which is likely causing the issue).  If you had PCI nVidia card, it might work.
    When cards are in Crossfire or in SLI mode, only 2 monitors will be supported. If SLI or Crossfire is disabled, you should be able to get up to 4 monitors.  See if you can borrow your friends nVidia card and try it out. I would advise you to uninstall any ATI drivers.  You are going to need an additional nVidia card(PCIe or PCI).

  • Matching a PCIe graphics card w/ proper PCIe slot question.

    Hi all,
    By all i mean Harm and Jim - the hardware wizards!   One more hardware question....
    In comparing two Supermicro mb's, the X8SAX and the X8STE, i noticed that the X8SAX has two PCIe 2.0  x16 slots while the X8STE has one x8 PCIe 2.0 in a x16 slot.
    So... my question is... If i'm going to use a high end graphics card like the GTX 260 or a lower end Geforce 9500 GT, buying the X8STE mb would be a mistake because both cards are x16 and putting them in the x8 using a x16 slot would degrade the speed in half - correct?

    Harm,
    Of the Supermicro i7 single socket mb's, the X8STE would have been ideal with 1-x16PCIe, 3-x4PCIe and 2-PCI slots if the x16PCIe slot had 16 lanes and the mb had no graphics. Also, With the X8SAX, if you are using double wide graphic card, you are covering up a PCIe slot leaving you with ony one more on the mb.
    But why use two video cards? What is the value added?
    I like many editor's, I use dual monitors during the video production process so i can see Pr, Ps, Ae or Sb at the same time. I find it more productive and convenient. I have been toying with the idea of  getting a third monitor. But with this mb, it would leave me with no usable slots other than the two 64bit PCI-X slots.
    Although Supermicro mb's are great, I own an older dual Xeon NLE system, they just don't any boards - currently - that satisfy me. Both boards leave you wanting a little. But I would agree with you that the X8SAX is still the better choice.
    In any case, would you agree that putting an x16PCIe graphics card in the X8STE with only 8 lanes in the x16PCIe slot would have been a waste?
    Just for curiosity, what Supermicro single i7 mb would you have chosen?

  • I need to move my Audigy2 sound card to another PCI slot and...

    Hello everyone , hope everyone is doing well today. (and everyday!)
    As the topic says I need to move my PCI Audigy2 card down slot , got a new BFG 6800 Ultra and need to make some room.
    My question is how should this be done with as little trouble as possable , I really want to (if possable) avoid at all costs an XP reinstall.
    I think if I try to remove the card through DM then shut down and move the card to another slot and then start the PC (I have my BIOS set to plug and Play OS) it should detect it and reinstall it in the other slot. But with IRQ problems being what they are , all that should be sometimes isn't.
    I have once before tried to remove all creative drivers , then uninstall the card and move it to another slot on another system (NForce chipset) and wound up doing a major reinstall because it would not see the card , but I have an ASUS K8V SE Dlx (VIA Chipset) now and it seems to be a more trouble free board than Nvidia.
    Well thats about all I have for now , if anyone has ever doen this before I would really appreciate any help/tips before I take the plunge.
    thanks ,

  • A68HM-E33 wont boot if any card in PCI slot

    Put together a system with an A68HM-E33 board. A4-5300, 4Gb Kingston HyperX, 120Gb Intel SSD, Win7 x64.  Got it all running fine. Went to install a PCI (not PCIe) wifi card. System will not post, gives 8 beeps, no BIOS splash screen.
    Remove PCI wifi card, system boots normally. Tried a PCI ethernet card, same thing, won't boot.
    Why would a card in the PCI slot stop the system from booting?

  • Z77A-GD55 How to enable PCI slots

    Insert the video card in a PCI slot does not see. Does not even appear in the device manager. I'm sure my video card works. How can I fix it?
    Main Board: Z77A-GD55
    Bios Version:
    Video Card: GigaByte HD5970
    PSU:   Xigmatec 700W +80 Centauro series

    Raid Card:
    Sound Card:
    Any Additional hardware plugged into your system:
    OC:  No
    Operating System: Windows 8 Pro 64 bit

    I would suggest removing the CPU and inspecting the mainboard's socket with a bright light and magnifying glass. I am betting you will find some bent cpu pins.
    If both card you tested in this board are 7xxx AMD cards, you might want to try flashing the bios first.

  • K8N Neo4 Platinum - won't post with cards in pci slots

    Hi
    Just completed a new build - with 3800 + Dual processor -  everything works fine but when I plug a PCI card in any PCI slot the computer then refuses to even post.
    I've tried different cards and all of the pci slots but it makes no difference. Could it be a driver problem ? When I remove the card and try again the computer then starts up as normal.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers

    1: PCI cards are bad, most likely your problem
    2: PCI slots on MB are bad, highly doubt this
    3: PCI cards drawing to much power, very doubtfull

  • K8N Neo2 Plat. PCI Slots DEAD

    Hey guys - i just realized i have a big problem with my Neo2 Platinum..and it has happened on all 3 Neo2's i've had, so i definitely don't think its a motherboard problem...either way, i have ONE PCI card...its a LaCie Firewire800 Interface Card. I put it in and my windows will NOT recognize it. Very strange. I had been assuming until now that the card was just defective, however, i stuck the card into a friend of mines computer and sure enough, booted into windows and it detected it! So its not the card, just my PCI slots...i've tried it in more than one slot too, all to the same effect..unfortunately, i don't have any other PCI cards at the time to attempt to put in to see if it will make a difference...but in the mean time, does any of you have any idea what i can try to make this card work? Thanks!

    In the bios highlight the cell menue and push Shift+F2 and ALT+F3.
    The hidden option "PCI clock Auto detect" is to disable clock signal
    to unused pci slots , this cause less interference and emi at the board level.
    Its recomended to have at auto .
    When new pci board is inserted system data should be updated and the slot gets pci clock signal .
    -Set this to disabled to enable pci clock signal to all slots.
    That could explain the problems others have had with sound cards. I wonder how the "detection" mechanism works. Perhaps some PCI cards are slow at posting and are not ready to respond when the motherboard sends out signals to detect devices?

  • How To Install mini-pci wireless card in 1955-S805 ?

    I'm trying to install a new mini-pci wireless card in my Satellite 1955-S805. I was able to pry off the black shiny strip above the keyboard, and unscrew the two screws holding down the keyboard. But under the keyboard is a silver metal plate. There doesn't appear to be a way to get past that. Everything I've read seems to say that the mini-pci card goes under the keyboard.
    Does anyone know how to install a mini-pci card in these 1955-S805 notebooks? Or does anyone have a tech manual on this model?
    Thanks,
    Pat

    Hi Pat
    I am not sure but you have an US model. I have 1900-703 notebook. It is a European model and I had no problem to install mini-pci wireless card.
    Your unit has also wireless keyboard. Am I right?
    If you want to built in wireless card you must remove the keyboard from notebook using keyboard releases on the left and right side of your unit. After that you can see small cover on the place of keyboard and this cover is fixed with one screw. Under this small cover there is wireless card slot.
