Dear Community
Please appologize if this has been addressed already, but my first couple of seaches did not yield what I was looking for.
I have an AMD EPYC 7452 processor attached to an ASRock ROMED8-2T Mainboard. Connected to it are various NVME Adapter Cards (which work perfectly) and an Intel X520-2 10G SFP+ NIC with dual Port.
According to Intel it should be possible to bifurcate the card, splitting it into two SFP+ NIC's. Unfortunately I was not able to achieve this, although I set bifurcation on the PCI-16x slot to 4x4x4x4 and even tested different speed settings (Gen4 as well as Gen3, haven't tried Gen2 though) the card is still shown as two NIC on the VM, rather than one.
When running lspci it also lists the cards NICs under the same address (see attached).
I am out of ideas and was wondering if one of you came across the same issue and found a way to properly bifurcate the NIC.
Any Input would be highly welcome!
Thanks in advance
Regards
Chris
