XL710 QP, ZC, Ubuntu 14.04.03, ESXi 6.0, *-network UNCLAIMED, lsmod i40e, ixgbe_zc

Hello, we are helping a customer (working on console access) upgrade to a ZC license that models a localsetup (X520), but despite our efforts we can't get the NIC to be fully recognized in Ubuntu. Figure it's something
simple, but search results have yet to yield any solution. The ntop packages were updated today.


Appreciate any assistance.


One glaring issue (not sure) is that i40e,ixgbe_zc is displayed in lsmod output below. Guessing we need to
remove one of those and i40e should be i40e_zc?


Details:


The host sets the device into Direct I/O and the guest as a PCI device, no virtual switching, but the
issue persists. The license was purchased in the last few weeks and otherwise everything looks okay.
zcount said the license was correct and the HW is working.

Hi Kevin
your card is based on X710, thus i40e is the correct driver (please ignore ixgbe, actually I am not sure why you mentioned X520),
in order to use it in ZC mode you should install/configure the i40e-zc driver, however you should be able to see it in ifconfig already
as you have the standard i40e driver loaded. Please check with ifconfig -a in case the interface is down.
