Remove Flex-10 Flexnic from BL465C G6

[MaydayIT]

Hi all.

We've recendly made some network changes, and no longer need two of the FlexNICs we had previously used.  I removed these from Virtual Connect, but they still show in the BIOS setup, and are presented to operating systems (VMware in this case).  How do I get rid of these unneeded NICs?

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer.

Hi

What is the firmware of the virtual connect, in newer version there is an option to hide unused NICs.

Yes, I found that while digging for the answer, and sadly, I'm one version behind and need to stay there until I can retire an old server being used as an ISCSI box.

Thanks for responding though.

BTW, for anyone else looking for this, you must be on VC firmware 4.31 to see this option.  We're at 4.30 :(.
