how to install Mellanox connectx-4 in ESXi 6.7

Hi

I cannot get ESXi 6.7 to install Mellanox ConnectX-4 in ESXi 6.7

I the UI on the ESXi I can see the Mellanox card under manage->hardware.

But it will not show up under NIC or under HBA, not sure where to find it.

If I from the CLI run the command

esxcli hardware pci list

I can also see the ESXi have found the controller correctly.

But as you can see Module ID and Module Name has not been set.

   Module ID: -1

   Module Name: None

 

I use the build in driver in ESXi 6.7 as it should support this controller and I have upgraded it to newest firmware so it fits with HCL

Any way to fix this?
