Sorry, I back to my question.

Do you had any workable xeon-D 2100 and ubuntu server OS machine ? I just confirm how many QAT devices in one D2100 CPU that can see.

thanks.

I am a newbie. I've looked around on internet and check by command lspci on my server Dell Poweredge R640, but I can't sure about this server supporting QAT acceleration or not.

#lspci -d 8086:37c8

then nothing displays

Could you please confirm that Dell Poweredge R640 supports QAT or not?

Thanks
