I have a T20 server with 32GB of RAM and just added a cheap melonox 10Gbps SPF NIC to my nutanix box. I would really hate to reload everything and lose all my data. Do I have to reload the CE Instance or is there a way to load drivers or update to see the NIC. The last thing i want to do is blow it away and the card isnt even supported.

    There is a way to kernel load drivers, which would be similar to how any linux drivers are installed. There are a few people doing similar things with newer megaraid drivers and intel drivers. Not supported per say, but you could poke around at it.
