Believe 6.16.5 is only in testing repo. dnf reinstall kernel-core --enablerepo=updates-testing So, unless you have testing enabled in repo options. I installed on one machine as test, and it /boot as not having enough space at first. Had to remove some things. Later increased /boot by 512M to 1.5G total using gparted to shift things. rpm -qa | grep fcoe fcoe-utils-1.0.34-11.gitb233050.fc42.x86_64 /etc/fcoe# echo "cfg-ethx"; cat cfg-ethx ;echo "config" ; cat config cfg-ethx ## Type: yes/no ## Default: no # Enable/Disable FCoE service at the Ethernet port # Normally set to "yes" FCOE_ENABLE="yes" ## Type: yes/no ## Default: no # Indicate if DCB service is required at the Ethernet port # Normally set to "yes" DCB_REQUIRED="yes" ## Type: yes/no ## Default: no # Indicate if VLAN discovery should be handled by fcoemon # Normally set to "yes" AUTO_VLAN="yes" ## Type: fabric/vn2vn ## Default: fabric # Indicate the mode of the FCoE operation, either fabric or vn2vn # Normally set to "fabric" MODE="fabric" ## Type: yes/no ## Default: no # Indicate whether to run a FIP responder for VLAN discovery in vn2vn mode #FIP_RESP="yes" config ## Type: yes/no ## Default: no # Switch on/off debug messages (script & C code) DEBUG="no" ## Type: yes/no ## Default: yes # All the messages go to syslog and stderr (script & C code) USE_SYSLOG="yes" ## Type: string.
