DA doesn't properly detect SM Bus controller pci\ven_8086&dev_9cba&sub_062e1028

Issue/Introduction

After the DeployAnywhere process completes, the SM Bus controller shows a yellow exclamation mark in device manager Yellow exclamation mark is shown next to SM Bus Controller in Device Manager

Cause

The SM Bus Controller device in device manager does not represent an actual device. Drivers provided by Intel simply point the device to a 'Null driver' which removes the yellow exclamation mark in device manager.

Resolution

Because the 'driver' for the SM Bus Controller is simply redirecting to a 'null driver', DA does not retarget this driver.  Having a yellow exclamation mark in Device Manager is completely cosmetic and does not affect any operations of machines with the SM Bus Controller device.  

No changes will be made in DeployAnywhere code.
