DL380Gen9 Server PCI NUMA allcation

[Vishruth]

Hi,

We have a DL380Gen9 Server with 24CPU's and two threads of 12CPU each, loaded with Ubuntu[14.04.1]. We have loaded the PCI slot with NIC's and when checked for NUMA node for PCI's slots, i could see all the NIC's are mapped to single NUMA node (/sys/class/net/*/device/numa_node). Which should be expected, am i correct?

Is there any way we can allocate NUMA node for PCI from diffrent Node?
