I need to work on a host which has been offline and powered down for some time. I has CentOS-6.9 installed. At some point it had two nics, one on the motherboard (still present and working) and one as an expansion card.
When booted the console displays:
pciehp 0000:00:1c:0:pcie04: Failed to check link status
repeatedly.
How do I tell the host to ignore the missing nic or remove it from the system configuration so that the error is removed.

You can just rename or better move into different location configuration file resembling missing NIC; look into:
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
