Hi @LucaPrete ,

ConnectX3 are not supported by the plugin. I recommend you to upgrade to ConnectX4 or 5. They bring lot of features that will be useful for rdma and nic.

Thank you @paravmellanox ! Unfortunately all our servers run the ConnectX3. I'm wondering if the plugin could be modified so it doesn't configure at system level the VFs, but just uses the ones configured through the driver...what do you think? If we achieve this, what other limitations do you see?

Hi @LucaPrete what functionality do you plan to run on ConnectX3? rdma, ethernet, dpdk, or part of it?

@paravmellanox I've seen the RDMA term in other places as well, but I'm not very familiar with it. I have to do some homework here :)
For now, what we have to achieve is to realize a PoC where k8s containers can have a second SR-IOV NIC. The NIC is then connected to a custom fabric. DPDK support may be nice as a next step, but not mandatory for the first one.

@LucaPrete, Connectx3 are pretty old now. Can you please talk to customer support as you need DPDK support in next step? We don't have strong plan to support DPDK mode. Most users have upgraded to ConnectX4/5 so...

@LucaPrete for PoC is fine to use ConnectX3. It requires some work, so some hacks should be done for PoC.
