The PowerEdge R710 is an older Nehalem based Intel system isn't it? 
Those didn't have the PCIe controller built into the socket.  As such 
what you may have is both sockets hanging off of one I/O Hub and if that 
is the case the PCIe device is the same distance from either socket.  In 
that case it would be correct for it to report -1 since either socket is 
the same distance.
