SR-IOV enablement in system setup for R740/R750
Hi,
There are two ways to enable SR-IOV in R740/R750 System Setup:
System Setup -> System BIOS -> Integrated Devices -> SR-IOV Global Enable
System Setup -> Device Settings -> [Choose a NIC port] -> Device Level Configuration -> Virtualization Mode (SR-IOV)
Just wonder if the first way also cover the second (and vice versa) so we don't need to both?

Just tested, seems both ways are needed in order for the NIC port to be SR-IOV enabled in the OS.

Hi,
Yes I already checked that page before posting. That page only describe the first way (SR-IOV Global Enable) and not the second.
