Hi,<div> We recently purchased some HP Gen8 servers with Broadcom BCM57810 NIC controllers. I am running CentOS 6.2 on these servers configured as KVM hosts. </div><div><br></div><div>Has anyone gotten the Broadcom chips to run with SR-IOV on CentOS 6.2? Any clues on how to get it working?</div>
<div><br></div><div>I see from the Broadcom glossy marketing docs that this chip supports SR-IOV, but I cannot find a procedure for configuring it. The Red Hat docs show how to configure the Intel chips and the Emulex web site includes a procedure to configure SR-IOV with their chips. In both procedures, there are vendor-specific steps. </div>
<div><br></div><div>It is also pretty obvious that appropriate drivers and firmware are required, which I do not know if I have.</div><div><br></div><div>Any input would be most welcome. </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div>
