Well i've got a realy strange problem;
When i put any of my LSI 9211 8i (P20 IT mode) in my new X11SPL-F board it won't even POST.
When i take it out i can boot fine to the bios, do settings in bios etc (and off couse boot usb ;) ). But when i drop it back in, i can't even enter the bios!!
When i put the LSI cards in the X10 board of my main server (this is going to be backup) they all work fine, even seeing all 24 disks in the SC846 that my main server is running.
The backup server hardware config:
Supermicro X11SPL-F board, run by a Intel Xeon Silver 4112 (2.6G quad).
4x 16GB QVL memory (Samsung M393A2K40BB2-CTD). And lastly the LSI 9211-8i
Strange things happen when the LSI is in the board;
As said, i can't even get to the bios. It hangs after the first "splash screen" on a black screen with white marker (after the 3 low and 1 high beeps which i recognize from all my supermicro boards) Normaly this is the point you get the screen which confirms that you go to bios "entering setup". But this doesn't show, instead a black screen with a white flashing - The black screen of death :(
Also in IPMI i can't even get a single sensor reading when the 9211 8i is in the system, which is realy weird.
Now i've updated the bios to the most recent version (2.19.1268) And the IPMI software (1.46, allready on it but decided to reflash it to be 100% sure the newest was on it).
I don't know if it some weird setting in the bios thats causing the problem for the LSI card, or that the board's pcie slots are just plain "broken". I tryed all slots with all lsi 9211 8i i had (i dont have any other spare pcie cards i can test as my main desktop system's gpu is watercooled and no more addon network cards available to me to try it out as all onboard is intel now as far as i know/no problems with them).
Anybody that can point me into the right direction a little? I've read the X10/X11 faq, tryed to reset the IPMI settings when it wasn't recognising it, then the system seems to reboot and does the same thing again so that didn't help me out.
