B. Troubleshooting Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
B.1. Why do I see a "No Suitable slots found" message when
running
fpgaconf
on my AFU image?
If you see a No suitable slots found message, ensure that your FIM version is
compatible with your AFU image by completing the following steps:
1. Refer to
Identify the FPGA Interface Manager (FIM) and BMC Firmware Version
page 13 to determine the required <FIM version>.
2. To verify that the AFU is compatible with the FIM version, run the following
command:
packager gbs-info --gbs=<gbs-file>
For example, for
nlb_mode_0.gbs
run the following command:
packager gbs-info --gbs=$OPAE_PLATFORM_ROOT/hw/samples/nlb_mode_0/bin/
\nlb_mode_0.gbs
Sample output:
{
"version": 1,
"afu-image": {
"interface-uuid": "8e5d8914-e35d-5e92-ab36-c9082a2b1934",
"afu-top-interface": {
"class": "ccip_std_afu"
},
"magic-no": 488605312,
"power": 0,
"accelerator-clusters": [
{
"total-contexts": 1,
"name": "nlb_400",
"accelerator-type-uuid": "d8424dc4-a4a3-c413-
f89e-433683f9040b"
}
]
}
}
The interface-uuid should match the FIM version (PR interface ID) you found in

B.2. How do I flash the FIM or program the AFU in a multicard
system?
The OPAE commands
fpgaflash, fpgabist,
and
fpgaconf
use the PCIe bus,
device and function numbers as arguments to target the specific Intel FPGA PAC.
