Hi,

We've got a number of Gen8 v2 proliants - and a bunch of Intel Pro/1000 PT 
quad port cards (PCI-Express based, full height).

However - these aren't "seen" when put into the Proliants? - Anyone seen 
similar?

Ironically - from what I can see the cards are on the HCL for the Proliant 
(and, obviously on the Supported Hardware for FreeBSD).

Weirder - if I put the same card into one of our older Tylersburg based 
systems - it can see it fine.

Move it back to any of the Haswell based Gen8's - and it's gone. Try a 
different card (we have a bunch) - same behaviour. Try a different Proliant 
- same issue.

Put the card back in the Tylersburg based machine (SuperMicro) - it works.

Any one seen similar / able to offer any hope / suggestions?

Thanks,

-Karl
