May 30, 20224 yr Good morning, looking for some assistance. I upgraded top the newest release this morning and my machine came back up missing the NICS. netxtreme bcm5764m gigabit ethernet pcie "lshw -class network" shows the NICs as unclaimed. can anyone assist? No hardware changes, just the most recent update (just a small revision jump as I was on the latest release prior to this upgrade.
May 30, 20224 yr Community Expert Likely a NIC that uses the tg3 driver, see the release notes: https://forums.unraid.net/topic/124108-unraid-os-version-6102-available/ You can also post the diagnostics so we can see the hardware and recommend the best option.
May 30, 20224 yr Author Thanks for the reply and the catch. disabling VT-d in bios brought me back up but now I need to figure out what to do. I have VMs running on this that I need for production so disabling VT-d leaves me non functional. I wasn't having any issues since going to 6.10 so I'm wondering if it is safe to bypass the blacklist.

May 30, 20224 yr Community Expert It's not a known affected model, but since most affected servers have been from HP it's difficult to say more for sure, if you have been running previous v6.10.x releases with vt-d enable for a few days and didn't notice any issues or errors logged you are most likely OK, diagnostics might also give a better idea.
May 30, 20224 yr Community Expert No corruption detected by btrfs so far, and when there's a problem it's usually quick to detect some, so if you ran other v6.10.x release for more than a day I would think it should be fine to enable vt-d, just monitor the log for the iommu error described in the post linked above, if you don't see that after a few hours use with vt-d enabled it's another indication you should be fine.

Been running solid since Monday with no errors thus far.
