Kernel param. I really should have caught that.
So I was all ready to edit grub.conf and then slapped my hand. You TEST
it out first, adding the command at boot time. ARGH! Once before (5+
years back) I had to add a kernel param and did it wrong and it was a
big recovery challenge. No test and verify before making permanent. Whew.
So I googled the param to get its format right, and it is iommu=off.
Without that dash in front. But as I read up on this option, it does
not sound like something I want to globally turn off just to stop a
supposedly annoying message (if they have indeed worked around it, and
my new DNS server is running with this OK).
So I will test from booting and typing the option in without actually
altering grub.conf. But if there is a way to just stop getting this
message, that would be good too.
thank you all for your help.
