Good afternoon, all!
In my project to redesign my datacenter I want to add network adapters to my current DSS servers. No big deal? Or will I have to back up and reinstall?
Thanks!

You will have to watch out for nic reordering..
Why do you feel you'd need to reinstall?
We always recommend to have a backup of your system.
Adding a new NIC card to the system should not be that big deal that need a reinstall or else.
Also try to save your configuration and setup settings from the GUI: MAINTENANCE -> miscellaneous -> Function: Save settings. in case if you need them.
Thanks for the info!
Some Linux-based systems only run hardware discovery on install, forcing a reinstall to recognize new hardware. In this case, it seems the only major issue is NICs being recognized out of sequence - which is a known irritant in Linux.
