And also used the be2net With Rocky 8.5 on Gen9.

Works as expected, until now.

 Thanks Darrell

   I think I understand your point, but it looks to me like such a
 bother to have to do things like this. I will try starting from 4.4.9.

   Could a solution be to install Debian and run kvm to install the
 ovirt-node? I guess you waste some resources doing this but maybe worth it
 if you can skip all this kernel business.

[ovirt-users] Re: Emulex OneConnect 10Gb NICs on Ovirt 4.4.10

[Roberto Nunin]

Hi Thomas

I've also checked 4.4.9 with "additional" drivers grabbed from ElRepo, on
both Gen8/9.

I'm still on 4.4.9, on RHVH hosts and oVirt nodes.

No problems until now, since November.

[ovirt-users] Re: Emulex OneConnect 10Gb NICs on Ovirt 4.4.10

[Thomas Kamalakis]

Hi Roberto

  We also used the ElRepo drivers in production - most of our e-learning
servers including BBB are on oVirt Gen8 hosts. No problems whatsoever

  The problem is that I could not find drivers for the kernel version of
the 4.4.10 release.

My cent.

I've used both Gen8 and Gen9 with ElRepo drivers, in light production,
without any problem, more than 2 years.

Also qla2xxx driver was from ElRepo, being cluster with FC storage.

[ovirt-users] Re: Emulex OneConnect 10Gb NICs on Ovirt 4.4.10

[Thomas Kamalakis]

Hi all

  It looks like Gen9 is also not supported in RHEL8. Its a shame, from our
side it looks like a deal breaker since we are not ready to part with our
old but reliable servers.

  Maybe we will try Proxmox.

  Thanks you all for your help

  BR

I also have Gen8 and those are nearly 8 years old.With EL8 Gen8 is no longer 
supported (this doesn't mean it doesn't work)and many of the kernel modules 
don't recognize the old hardware. As recommend, you can use elrepo to solve the 
problem.

[ovirt-users] Re: Emulex OneConnect 10Gb NICs on Ovirt 4.4.10

[Darrell Budic]

The problem isn’t with Ovirt 4.4.x, it’s the underlying red hat/centos 8 stream 
OS that no longer supports the Emulex. So if you have an existing system, it 
should be easy enough to switch to the EL Repo kernels and the proceed with the 
4.4.10 updates. It’s a bigger headache if you’re installing fresh, in which 
case using a different OS that supports kernel drivers for your hardware should 
work.

Unless you’re using Ovirt Node, in which case I don’t think there’s a good 
solution for that short of spinning your own with a custom kernel.

[ovirt-users] Re: Emulex OneConnect 10Gb NICs on Ovirt 4.4.10

[Thomas Kamalakis]

Thanks Darrell

  I think I understand your point, but it looks to me like such a bother to
have to do things like this. I will try starting from 4.4.9.

  Could a solution be to install Debian and run kvm to install the
ovirt-node? I guess you waste some resources doing this but maybe worth it
if you can skip all this kernel business.

[ovirt-users] Re: Emulex OneConnect 10Gb NICs on Ovirt 4.4.10

[Darrell Budic]

I hit this too, RH appears to have limited the supported PCI ids in their 
be2net and no longer includes the Emulex OneConnect in the list of supported 
IDs. I switched to the EL repo mainline kernels to resolve the issue on 
existing systems, it was a bit more fun on systems needing new installs of 8.x. 
I think I settled on installing an older system, switching kernels, and then 
upgrading to current.

Good luck,

  -Darrell
