On a server platform running Server OS, the OSS boards will appear below the “

PCI Express standard Root Port

” and come up as “

PCI Express

standard Upstream Switch Port” and “PCI Express standard Downstream Switch Port

”, see screenshot below.



The first instance of “PCI Express standard Upstream Switch Port” is the OSS-386 board (DEV_8749)



The second instance of “PCI Express standard Upstream Switch Port” is the OSS-390 board (DEV_8733)
