I am using a Tyan S5510G2NR-LE motherboard with a Xeon E3-1220v2 cpu. This combination has a issue where if the Intel Management Engine Interface kernel module (mei) is loaded it causes some weird behavior. The worst of which is that the system will shutdown when told to reboot. It didn't use to do it when I ran a i3-2100T. Which is probably because that CPU doesnt support any of Intel's remote management stuff. I only figured out what was happening because of a obscure forum post elsewhere. I followed this process when I ran Debian to blacklist. What is the best practice to do this on TrueNAS Scale?
Just unloading the module is not enough. It must be prevented from ever being loaded.
