HPE 6.4 TB HHHL pcie workload accelerator

[chetan003]

Hello,

We are trying to boot up freenas 11.2 with "HPE 6.4 TB HHHL pcie workload accelerator" card but this card not able to detect within freeNAS OS. Please advice, does it require drivers ? since I have checked could not see related driver for freebsd. Please possible way to resolve this issue.

This statement doesn't quite make sense. I hope you're not using a $10,000 SSD as a FreeNAS boot device.
If you have FreeNAS OS booting from another device and want to use that HP SSD as a pool storage or L2ARC cache, check if /dev/nvme0 device is present, and if there is anything about this drive in dmesg output.

Is it NVMe? If so, it should work, unless there's a bug.

No, we already SSD disk for freenas boot. we are trying to add PCI card HPE 6.4 TB HHHL pcie workload accelerator card but it's not detecting when we run pciconf -lv
On this card we would like to configure t zil and L2arch cache for SATA storage.
