Symptom

The Intel X520 10 gigabit (Gb) Ethernet adapter's option ROM is disabled by default and therefore the adapter is not seen in UEFI and not available as a Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) resource.

Affected configurations

The system is configured with one or more of the following IBM options:

  • Intel X520 Dual-Port 10GbE SFP+ Embedded Adapter for IBM System x, option 49Y7980, any CRU
  • Intel X520-DA2 Dual-Port 10 GbE SFP+ Adapter for IBM System x, option 49Y7960, any CRU

This tip is not software specific.

Workaround

The following steps will enable the option ROMs on the Intel adapters:

  1. Create the ISO for the Intel software to a CD.
  2. Open the Intel Software.
  3. Open the 'Start_UEFI_ISO' folder.

3.        Open the 'Start_UEFI_ISO' folder -> 3.        Open the 'Boot_UEFI_ISO' folder

   Shell>startutil64e.efi -all -FE -> Shell>bootutil64e.efi -all -FE ->
 
 

  1. Copy 'efi_boot_update.iso' to a Hard Disk Drive (HDD).
  2. Burn 'efi_boot_update.iso' to a CD.
  3. Insert the 'efi_boot_update' CD into the server with the Intel NICs.
  4. Start to the 'efi_boot_update' CD.
  5. Wait till the 'Shell>' prompt appears.
  6. At the 'Shell>' prompt enter:

      Shell>startutil64e.efi -all -FE
  7. Press Enter.
  8. After the procedure finishes, type 'exit.'
  9. Restart the server.
  10. Press F1 to enter UEFI.
  11. In UEFI, go to System Settings --> Network to see the adapters.

If the UEFI 'efi_boot_update' CD does not start, performing the following should allow the CD to start:

  1. Restore UEFI defaults.
  2. Load the CD and follow the instructions Product Engineering (PE) provided previously.
