Reference Dell M1000e + aggregator MI/O port mapping

Hi all

I intend to install a new chassis Dell M1000e with Dell M/o aggregator. During the time of solution, I have a few questions about correspondences between the physical uplink with NDC blade ports ports. A Please check the config below and specify my queries?

My hardware:

  • 1 x Dell M1000e
  • 2 x M i/o aggregator (A1 & A2)
  • 16 x M630 Blade (Qlogic 57840 S ANC four ports card)

Reference DELL M/o aggregator:

(reserved for Future use) module QSFP + 2 ports (Port No1:33 - 36 & No2:37 Port-40)

I want to use these two modules for my blades 4-port Quad and the confusion I had, how to associate these 16 ports (8 ports of each module) to the server blade and the amount of bandwidth I will get by blade with redundancy.

Module 4-port SFP + 10 GbE (Flexi-O of the Bay) (Port No.: 41-48)

Module 4-port 2/4/8 Gb FC FlexIO (Flexi Bay 1) (Port No.: 49-56)

FYI - I would like to install ESXi 6.0 on all blades

Thank you!!

Oriented server ports are configured automatically as part of the aggregation of links groups if the server is configured for the LACP Protocol. Static GAL is not supported.

You will use the segregation network VLAN. A VLAN for network traffic and the other for the CF. Here are the commands to configure interfaces for different VLANS.

Unidentified:

Dell (conf) # tengigabit interface 0/16

Dell(conf-if-te-0/16) # vlan unidentified 4

Output Dell(conf-if-te-0/16) #.

Tag:

Dell (conf) # tengigabit interface 0/16

The tag vlan Dell(conf-if-te-0/16) # 4

Output Dell(conf-if-te-0/16) #.

Traffic from servers will follow the path of the VLAN. For example, if an internal server, facing the port is set to VLAN 4, that traffic will be transmitted on the uplink port which has also set to VLAN 4.

By default, all external ports are placed in a single whole LAG. However, you can change the configuration to support several shifts of uplink. Page 159 of guys configuration takes you step by step on setting up several shifts of uplink.

The aggregator automatically configures to match the FCoE parameters used in the switches to which it connects through its uplink ports. FIP snooping is automatically configured on an aggregator. Automatically configured port channel (LAG 128) works CWF port mode. See page 86 for more information and examples of config.

For redundancy, you could stack the units together. 241 page details the process of stacking.

Page 54 of 102 of the Guide blade IO has one other diagram that details more internal server port mapping for each blade.

    Hi all

    We have Dell M1000e Server Blade, 13 3 full height and 10 low-profile, I/O switch servers are A1, A2 B1B2 are MXL blade switches and C1, C2 are Brocade Fiber switches.

    and full height servers only does not illuminate they keep flashing red

    What is the problem?

    It looks like the Emulex on the M820 may be installed in wrong mezzanine card. 1 to 3 media fabric C mezzanine card slots. do you know which slit it is currently installed in? Here is some additional info on removal and installation of the mezzanine cards.

  • Reference Dell m6220 aggregated at Cisco 6506

    I transition my old 1955 Dell blade chassis to my 'new' Dell m1000e blade chassis to the House and I encountered a problem. I'm posting in the network as it is more closely related to one than the other available categories.

    Setup: Dell m1000e with six stand-alone m6220 passes (not stacked) connecting to a Cisco 6506. Each m6220 spans four Gb blades in the 6506... M6220-a1, port 17, plugs into 6506, port g1/1; M6220-a1, port 18, plugs into 6506, port g2/1; M6220-a1, port 19, plugs into 6506, g3/1 port; M6220-a1, port 20, plugs into 6506, port g4/1. M6220-a2, port 17, plugs into 6506, port g1/48; M6220-a2, 18 port, connects to 6506, port g2/48; M6220-a2, port 19, plugs into 6506, g3/48 port; M6220-a2, port 20, plugs into 6506, g4/48 port; the process repeats supposed for the rest of m6220.

    OFFSET groups: po1 (12, 17-20) to po1 (g1/1-g4/1); PO6 (a2, 17-20) to po6 (g1/2-g4/2)

    All is well. the Television ether on the Cisco displays LACP is in place and working well, like the fact the same command on the side of Dell.

    I did all the LAGS interfaces trunks and originally supposed to Dell was like Cisco while none allowed VLAN defined means all the VLANS allowed. I've since read that Dell default behavior is to only authorized WHAT VLAN specified. I've added the appropriate VLAN on the side of Dell.

    Pings between m6220 very well work. Pings to the rest of the network the m6220 very well working. Pings between the 6506 and the blades are not.

    The blades run ESXi 5.5U2 and I added two interfaces tissue management vSwitch. I first tried to make the m6220 g1/1 an access port, but that did not work. I tried making a port trunk and setting one VLAN, but this does not work either.

    What information is needed to help with this?

    Thank you.

    I'm done just erase everything and start over. Sometimes when you have changed all sorts of things, create a clean starting point, it is what is needed.

    Daniel, thanks for the reply and suggestions.

    Here's the configs that worked as I expect. I hope someone can benefit from my efforts.

    Hi, I use a Dell 6248 switch and I want to spend the vlan of a particular device, but I do not know on which port the device is connected. How can I find this information without having to physically go to the switch.

    I don't know if it's serious or not, but the switch dell isn't the switch doing the routing.

  • Reference Dell MD3200i correct editing with IP system and the NIC for faster network speeds

    Hi all

    I worked on this project for a while now. I did a lot of research and have contacted Dell several times. I need help.

    I have 2 sets of identical to use for Hyper-V clusters servers. We bought a Dell MD3200i in November, we also bought a Dell 5424 switch and a Cisco SLM2048 switch. These servers have Real Tek 2 network cards for iSCSI Jumbo frames is 9 k

    The Dell MD3200i is two SAN controllers. Dell 5424 is the iSCSI optimized switch and Cisco is a 48 switch ports. iSCSI is on its own network that nothing else is connected to it. (There is an Iomega NAS and a promise Vtrak SAN Tech with all current domain of execution with iSCSI controller)

    Reference Dell MD3200i controller 0 Port 0 192.168.130.101 controller 1 Port 0 192.168.131.101

    Controller controller Port 1 0 192.168.130.102 1 1 192.168.131.102

    Controller controller Port 3 0 192.168.130.103 1-3 192.168.131.104

    Cisco switch has 1 VLAN n ° 1 on it and the 130 subnet inside elements. There are 8 connections to the switch. 4 controller 0 and 1 of each of the servers. It has an IP of 192.168.132.4, but that switch IP does not make difference. Lighted Jumbo frames

    Dell switch has 2 of #1 for various things such as the domain controller, Vtrack, and SIN. Subnet 2 is 131 and has a total of 8 connectors inside. 4 in 1 controller and 1 from each of the servers. Lighted Jumbo frames. The switch IP address is 192.168.132.2

    Groups of servers. Each server node running Windows 2008 R2 SP1 and running hyper-v with virtual server clusters / storage folder on them. 2 Realtek NIC with Jumbo frames made 9 k ProdNode1 and ProdNode2 have 12 Core i7 CPU with 12 GB memory, EXNode1 and ExNode2 have 12 Core i7 CPU with 24 GB of memory.

    iSCSI tab click on add 8 MPIO sessions at each of the ports on the MD3200i from Dell, target. For example, I added 1 session of 192.168.130.101 using it. Add Session,--> activate--> Advanced Mutlipath--> Local--> IP 192.168.130.110 initiator and target 192.168.131.101 iSCSI adapter. This is repeated on all servers. 4 connections for each NIC.

    The network is very slow. It revolved around 2 to 4 MB/MIN and it should be much faster. Initially, we had only the Cisco switch with only 1 VLAN and everything connected directly to it. I read somewhere that MPIO has been the problem, so I went through the same configuration but does not verify the MPIO checkbox above. Once this has been done, the network speed went up to 1.5 GB/Min but modular storage Dell was not happy, and virtual servers would fail and the connection is not very stable.

    What wrong with my setup? Can I directly home and fix the servers directly to the PowerVault and will make stable and allow for failover and redundancy NIC? I need to get this stable so I can move with something else.

  • Cannot print. Reference Dell 944 communication usb port is not available. error check your firewall settings to ensure the printer communication is not blocked.

    Original title: unable to print. Reference Dell 944 communication usb port is not available.

    Message says 'check your firewall settings to ensure the printer communication is not blocked. Printer has worked faithfully until the problems started with the XP Home operating system. To cut a long story short ram upgraded to 2 GB, all unnecessary programs identified and technician Microsoft contacted to solve problems.  I was informed of problems caused by 3rd software party conflicts. Kaspersky was apparently the culpit. Dell Inspiron 32 now much faster but the printer will not work little matter what I do. I tried to reload with drivers & utility CD, drivers uninstalled & reinstalled on the site of all nothing is? Can someone help?

  • Reference Dell 6224 and 5448

    Hi team,

    I'm new dell switches - exposed to cisco switches. I am faced with new kinds of problems with these dell switches. Unable to provide a fix and fight for the last 5 days. Pls help me. Below is my script

    Any thing that has missed out in the configuration part / all bad entries. I'm not sure now how to treat this. Pls help me and it is an urgent task for me

    Thank you

    With multiple VLANs, you need to use the general/Trunk mode. With the help of the info we have I made a diagram to help show the location of the switches and parameters on them. Obviously things can be different, such as PVID, IP address, VLAN ID etc are all customizable to your needs. But the page layout modes and the port will remain the same.

    STP will not fill the VLAN on the other switches. It's probably the GVRP feature it refers. With such a short race, it is more practical to manually add the VLAN. At least for the initial Setup, then once everything works enable GVRP to accommodate future expansion of VLAN.

    Hope this helps some.

  • Reference Dell R810 with 'too' 10gig NICs, which could cause Group?

    We run only integrated esxi U1 4.1 Dell R810 with 128 GB of ram and two CPUs from Intel 7560 8 - core server.  They have 4 to 10 GB (2 dual-port maps) network cards and 4 on-board network to 1 GB cards.  10GB network adapters are all Intel X 520-2 (two ports) using the IGB driver.

    They were CMTF ' ing randomly over the past weeks (but not more than once a week and only 3 of 18 servers with this same configuration have been CMTF).  So we contacted Dell.  After diligence analysis of their side, checking the logs, management versions of the BIOS, firmware, and other settings, etc. they are pointing the finger back at VMware (KB 1020808 in particular).

    Dell claims their hardware config itself is absolutely perfect after first suspecting a power problem (from 4 NIC 10gig) which they have thrown from.  So we are at a loss, short of removing the port double 10 GB network adapters and replacing them with single port 10 GB NIC (per article) since we currently only 2 of the 4 in use; I wanted just more for the future.

    Based on the feedback/logic of Dell, these same PSODs could occur on ANY platform hardware provider server running 4.1 U1, if these servers were equipped with 4 10gig NIC and 4 1gig NIC.

    We are all Jumbo-image not (for now) / 1500 MTU.  That said, the article specifies "recommended" maximum:

    For MTU 1500 configurations:

    • ports of 10 G OR 4 x
    • 16 x 1 G OR ports
    • ports 2 x 10G + port 8 x 1 G

    The closest is our generations/configs come in (which is 4 x 10G ports + port 4 x 1 G).  Let's remove 2 10G ports by removing the two dual port 10G cards in there now, and replace single port 10G cards and see if the PSODs continue.  If they do, Dell is for a world of pain.  If they do not, then well, I guess that ESXi 4.1 U1 can only 'manage' 2x10G ports with up to 8 x 1 G ports, as they the article inferred.

    Any feedback is welcome!  Someone out there running ESXi builds (any manufacturer of server) with FOUR cards of 10 GB/ports in them?  Thank you.

    Your problem is 4 to 10 GB network adapters.

    Replace them with a single HBA port.

    If you * only * had four NICs 10GB then it would work, but nothing, including the NICs 1 GB will not work.

    I saw a customer with this problem before and vmware support claimed with 4 10 GB NICS, adding an extra, including even just

    an additional 1 GB nic will cause problems.

    Thank you

    It is normal so he can make a full discharge of the battery as part of his learning cycle every 90 days. Make sure that this isn't that. If this isn't the case, the reason, give it 24 hours. If it is fully charged, update the system (including RAID firmware, driver first) firmware. If not fully charged yet or it reproduces quickly, then replace the battery - power down to replace.

  • Reference Dell 3110cn of Laserjet + os El Capitan

    My MacBook Pro (2009) stopped my Dell printer. News on this please.

    Hi deaconjo,

    as I had the same problem, I found a solution for my El Capitan MacPro 2008:

    Search for the following installation program:

    3130cn_Installer_And_Application_Dell_A04_MAC.dmg

    Inside this package you will find the driver for 10.7 and higher. After installing the package I could add an IP printer with this driver:

    Reference Dell 3130cn Color Laser v3017.104 PS

    With this driver installed, I can use my printer Dell 3110cn without problem.

    Perhaps it might help you too.

    Hey guys, more of a statement than a question. If you have a Dell Sonicwall and users do "found no appropriate group" of course the same user does not exist as a local user and a domain user. This will cause problems. Took me a while to understand that >.<>

    Good thought.
