No, that does not work. On a different host, that has an dedicated IPMI=20 NIC, I have a dropdown with the alternatives Dedicated, Share and Failover=20 but on this I only have a grayed out Share, no alternatives and no choices. = So this seems to be something hardwired in the MB. I will do a PR on the hit stuff. /glz --On September 18, 2012 14:55:48 +0000 jb <jb1234abcd@gmail.com> wrote: > G=C3=B6ran L=C3=B6wkrantz <goran.lowkrantz <at> ismobile.com> writes: > >> >> We have a system based on Supermicro X7SPA-HF with IPMI connected via a >> shared 82574L NIC.
