October 18, 20232 yr I am setting up one of my old Unraid systems to be a backup server. It has 1 gig copper on board and I have added a real Intel 82599ES card to the system. I have tried copper and fiber SFP+ modules from Cisco, Dell and FS.com. The port on the card show 10G link and activity and the 1G port shows like and activity and is accessible from the network. Unraid swears up and down that the 10G port is not linked and is down. I have also added the line to the bonding.conf file. "options bonding primary=eth1" There is something I must be doing wrong, but what? I have no idea. Diags also attached. This is a test server running an Unraid trial until I have it set up and operational. backup-diagnostics-20231017-1952.zip
October 18, 20232 yr Author Solution Found a solution... finally hit the right Google combo! changed syslinux from "append initrd=/bzroot" to "append initrd=/bzroot ixgbe.allow_unsupported_sfp=1,1,1"
