Disabling Flash on Intel X710-DA2 Adapter 5N7Y5
I want to disable the flash on a X710-DA2.
All I get is "ERROR: Unsupported feature". Do I need special Dell version of the tool?
Intel(R) Ethernet Flash Firmware Utility
BootUtil version 1.40.05.0

How can I find tools/update for this card on the Dell site? There does not seem to be an entry for network cards. I can not find a Service Tag either.
I was able to find "Intel NIC Family Version 22.0.0 Firmware for X710, XXV710, and XL710 adapters" with google but not even sure if this is the latest version.
No Events found!

I was able to flash the Intel Firmware on the card and could disable the Flash after that.

Hi,
What server model have you install the X710-DA2 card in? What is the current version of iDRAC and BIOS version?

I currently use the card in my DIY Desktop with Intel Z790+13700K.
I updated the cards firmware to "Intel NIC Family Version 22.0.0".
I tried to disable firmware with the latest bootutil from the intel homepage in windows and EFI Shell from USB stick.
I hope to resolve a compatibility problem with another machine (Thinkstation P360 Ultra) which refuses to boot with the card installed.
