HPE ProLiant Gen10 Plus Servers handle Fibre (FC) Host Bus Adapter (HBA) cards as a Network option in the Network boot default setting. The network device Port 1 is enabled while other ports are disabled. Therefore, when attempting to create a SAN boot configuration with an FC HBA dual port card, the one-time boot menu only displays port 1, and port 2 is not displayed. See the HPE Boot from SAN Configuration Guide for further details regarding the Network boot setup for the affected FC HBAs.
