Hey guys so I have a few 10ge SUN ATL2XGE cards and would like to use them in ESXi 5.5. By default ESX will not recognize the card due to missing drivers, after some poking around on the internet it turns out VMware did support these cards in 3.5 - 4.1 versions of ESX.
The problem is the vibs are for version 4.1 and I am not able to install them on 5.5, is there a way I can convert this vib or manually install it? When decompressing the VIP I see other files, just not sure what to do with them.
When trying ESX customizer it errors when using v5+ ESX iso with this vib. Any help would be greatly appreciated, the other option is going to Xenserver 6.2 which recognizes this out of the box. I was very close to doing that until I herd it does not really do thin-provisioning.
Hyper-V does not support this card also
