    10th NVMe drive not showing up in O/S installation

    That's for your profound reply. It's not cross posting. That post was in a different forum, 6 days ago with zero replies. I also added other data from my troubleshooting not included in the other post.

    10th NVMe drive not showing up in O/S installation

    Trying to install AlmaLinux 8 on a Dell R640 equipped with 10 x 7.68TB NVMe U.2 drives. All 10 show up in iDrac storage inventory so they're recognized, but only 9 show up in AlmaLinux install (via IPMI). I have replicated this issue with AlmaLinux 9, Ubuntu 20, Centos 8 Stream as well.

    10th NVMe Drive Missing

    Thanks, but I cannot find that option anywhere in BIOS. I checked via iDrac 9 and BIOS directly (console), all the same features listed both places and nothing related to Intel VMD or Intel Volume Management Device. I'm using this server to install KVM virtualzation (virtual servers)

    BIND Script

    For Linux o/s where I assign a large quantity of IPv4 addresses, I use a simple bind script to quickly bind all IPs. Example: for i in $(seq 2 254); do ip addr add xxx.142.100.$i/24 dev eth0 ip addr add xxx.142.101.$i/24 dev eth0 ip addr add xxx.142.102.$i/24 dev...

    DNS Delegation on IPv4

    I use my own ns1/ns2 for DNS delegation with ARIN. I edit rDNS per /24, per zone file via cPanel/WHM or SSH console. The zones are created via WHM interface, easily for me. Now, recently I acquired a legacy block of IPv4 from an ISP. Because it's legacy, they're only able to do a...
