I have 2 DL380g6 servers, one server has a riser kit installed and the other does not. running rhel5.6, how from the OS can I see the riser kit is installed? lspci didn't list the riser kit, but then again I'm not entirely sure its classified as a pci device? Is there a way to see it from the OS
If the riser kit is just a backplane with a bunch of slots and little in the way of electronics, it may not be visible to the OS by itself. Cards on it, maybe. Careful inspection of lspci may show cards on controllers or controller indexes that the other server isn't using.
