Installing the LOM Driver

Scenario

If the BMS uses an X722 LOM, install the LOM driver on the VM.

This section uses CentOS 7.6 as an example to describe how to install the LOM driver. The procedure is also applicable to other OSs.

Procedure

  1. Upload the NIC-X710_X722_XL710_XXV710-CentOS7.6-i40e-2.15.9-1-x86_64.rpm package obtained in Making Preparations to the VM.
  2. Go to the directory where the .rpm installation package is stored and run the following command to install it:

    rpm -ivh NIC-X710_X722_XL710_XXV710-CentOS7.6-i40e-2.15.9-1-x86_64.rpm

    [root@localhost i40e]# rpm -ivh NIC-X710_X722_XL710_XXV710-CentOS7.6-i40e-2.15.9-1-x86_64.rpm
