Configuring 4x10G on XL710-QDA2

Hi,

I have 2 Cars Type XL710QDA2 and I'd like to use Mellanox MAM Modules to use each port with 1x10G. NVM on both cards is 5.05. I set both cards to 4x10, but one card is not responsive after reboot anymore. How to change modes and how to get the other card back to life?

Regards,

Michael!

Hi Mfuckner1,

 

 

Thank you for posting at Wired Communities. For XL710-QDA2, it is recommended to use the validated modules for the port connection, please refer to the website below for the validated parts:

Hi Mfuckner1,

 

 

Can you share more information about the XL710 that is not responsive after reboot? What is the serial number (you can locate the serial number on the physical NIC with the format of 16 alphanumeric + 6 alphanumeric + 6-3 digits)

 

Thank you.

 

 

regards,
