  Uplink Ports Fibre Channel

  Manage ports Uplink Fiber Channel FCoE traffic between the interconnection of fabric and the next layer of the

  SAN storage network. All FCoE network-related traffic is pinned to one of these ports.

  By default, the Fibre Channel ports are uplink. However, you can configure them to work as Fibre Channel

  storage ports. This is useful in cases where a Cisco UCS requires a connection to a DAS storage

  Device (DAS).

  My question is, how the FC Port could handle FCoE traffic? My understanding was that FCoE will be lifted and Enthernet connection only.

  The CF module interconnection fabric is the place where the speration of CF vs. FCoE happen, so it's where the FC frame is extracted in the Ethernet frame.

• Implementation of storage fibre channel (ESXi 4.1) with jumbo frames

  I'm looking for 'official' instructions for the activation of the jumbo on a host ESXi 4.1 with storage fibre channel frames. I don't know if the instructions are different, or if anything else needs to be adjusted according to your storage space.

  I looked at the instructions from this page here and it seems simple enough. It also seems that you can keep your groups of existing ports rather than having to delete and then recreate. If these good enough instructions apply it for the side host?

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC & docType = kc & externalId = 1003712 & sliceId = 1 & docTypeID = DT_KB_1_1 & dialogID = 322680138 & StateID = 1% 200% 20322684038

  I saw this page for iSCSI storage so that made me think if the procedure differs according to the storage.

  What is the reason for having to recreate them?

  If you are in 4.1 that you don't need to recreate anything, just activate via the CLI.

  And you can enable frames on a standard port group or is it just for VMkernel port groups?

  You can turn on the VM and vmkernel exchanges. Together you must also make the "virtual cards", i.e.: on the Vmkernel virtual network cards and cards of virtual network in the guest operating systems. On the Windows 2003 server, I think you have to use VMXNET3, but on Windows 2008 the e1000 should support frames too.

  As has been noted before just make sure that any layer two devices in the path is configured to allow the large frames. You can use this to confirm both Vmkernel and invited: http://rickardnobel.se/archives/992

• Brocade M5424 Fibre Channel blade switch fiber?

  Hello.

  Im trying to support this Brocade M5424 switch blade Fibre Channel equipment and its load of the GBIC 10Gbs with fiber LC connectors. What type of fiber patch cord do I need to connect to another switch? I Googled it out and check it: LC LC PATCH CORD AQUA OM3.

  But my question remains... should I fibre om2 and om3 for the best connection quality?

  Could someone help me with this?

  Thank you

  OM2 and OM3 are assessed for 10 GB. 20 meters, you could run OM2 and OM3 and be able to achieve 10 GB. Here is a guide optical and cable with some information that may be useful.

• Emulator of the UCS and Fibre Channel (PCI Passthrough)

  Hello

  I would like to know if anyone of you knows if emulator UCS supports CF communications and how to configure them.

  I have 2 PCI Fibre Channel interfaces on the host Hardware and I applied PCI Passthrough on the ESXi hypervisor. It works with other virtual machines.

  Thank you very much

  No, unfortunately not.

• Fibre Channel card configuration on the host esx 5.1

  Hi all,

  I have three 5.1 esxi hosts.  I have new port 2 8G Fibre Channel cards installed in each and pass the cable FC since the card port goes to the fiber.

  It's my first time in collaboration with CF cards VMware hosts, what else should I do for these cards to be active or updated network in?  A good explanation, Docs and or video would be extremely welcomed.

  Just ask EMC technology to make the zoning on the SAN switch and the LUN masking and card introduced volumes to your hosts on the side storage... after the volumes, simply go to your ESXi, rescan your HBA and create data warehouses.

• vCenter 5.5 cluster using Fibre Channel & MSCS (Win 2003)

  Hi all

  I need to create a Cluster of 2003 of Windows (MSCS) as well as storage Fibre Channel shared on vCenter Server 5.5.  I need to work so that if a server crashes, the second server goes into action and support.

  I have a two-node Windows 2003 R2 64 bit running on the same host.  Virtual machines are created with an operating system installed.  I use for Fibre Channel storage and I have created and attached 6 discs in thick eager set to zero.  I also created and configured two NICs (Public and private) on each node.  The shared SCSI Bus is set to "Virtual" on both nodes.  I managed to get the two nodes to market and both can see the 6 disks.  The disk configuration is identical between nodes.  All drive letters to even the SCSI virtual peripheral nodes (1:X).

  I have not yet created the Windows cluster.  The problem is that, in node 1 when I create a folder in one of the attached disks, I don't see this folder in the same drive in node 2.  Is it a problem, a bad configuration or is this a normal behavior?

  Are there any other setup that I should consider to make this work?

  It's the doc that I follow:

  https://pubs.VMware.com/vSphere-55/topic/com.VMware.ICbase/PDF/vSphere-ESXi-vCenter-Server-55-Setup-MSCS.PDF

  Thanks much for any help!

  Since you not yet configured the cluster, this is normal behavior. Go ahead and configure the cluster, then the software cluster will manage the discs... do what you try can cause data corruption.

  And after the configuration of the cluster, take in mind that the drive will be online to a single node by time, as the Microsoft cluster is an active/passive cluster, in this way you will be able to see the disc and online with the letter assigned only on the active node.

• Problem with XServe and XServe RAID via Fibre Channel

  Hello everyone,

  I have a problem with my blended Xserve RAID.

  I see in RAID-Admin and configure it successfully (via Ethernet). Connect with our Xserve via Fibre Channel, but the XServe and XServe RAID do not detect each other.

  The fiber on the Xserve channel LEDs are white on the Xserve RAID completely off and permanent.

  RAID-Admin status of Fibre Channel: 'No connection (1 table)' with a red square.

  If I try to open the utility of fiber channel I get the message: "card Fibre Channel is not found." Utility disk OS X can't, too.

  I changed the card connector cable, and made several reboots. But each time the same thing: they do not detect each other.

  Xserve (2009):

  -2.26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon 5500

  -Map of Apple dual-channel 4 Gb Fibre Channel (LSI7204EP)

  XServe RAID:

  -RAID 5 in an array (only on the left with 5 x 500 GB)

  -1.5.1 Firmware

  -Cable Apple 4 Gb SFP - SFP

  Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad English!

  Hi Mpm-Mainz,

  Check if you have enabled LUN masking. To be able to see, you will need to download raid admin 1.5 not the 1.5.1

  Xserve RAID Admin Tools 1.5

  Have you also tried to use the other controller? Even if there is no disc in there, then it should appear in the preferences of fiber card system.

  Thank you

• Toshiba Tecra S2 - supports dual-channel?

  Hello

  I check that the chipset supports dual channel functionality, but does really do? I have a 512 MB DDR33, if I buy another equal go dual channel?

  Take care

  Hi, Mr. Mendes

  I can't give you a precise answer to your question, but in my opinion this kind of information, you can get the service partner. Can you explain what you want to do exactly? You want to change the module of RAM and buy a new one with more capacity?

• IMAQ supports 4-channel CCD cameras?

  Current color cameras have 3 channels R, G and B, but the image generated RGB is 32-bit, which means there is an another 8 bits that are not used, correct?

  I don't know how IMAQ driver includes all channels of a pixel in an RGB image? Support 4-channel CCD cameras?

  Hello Robert and MengHuiHanTang,

  By default, NEITHER-IMAQ framegrabbers RGB 32 bit mode ignores the alpha channel.  However, if you write your files from camera, as if the camera is out four taps of 8-bit (monochrome), then the framegrabber will acquire data in a single image monochrome, four times as wide.

  If you choose the file attached camera (assuming 512 pixels high and 2048 pixels of RGB, monochrome 8192 pixels wide) wide, then a single image of the framegrabber will plans red, green, blue and alpha image-by-side, as in the joint .png (each plane color of the camera is output a constant pixel value).

  You may also interlace RGB and alpha planes by replacing "NumCameraXZones" 1 and "NumCameraTapsPerXZone" by 4 and acquire again (you will have to perhaps refresh or come back if you use MAX).  That would put the red, green, blue and IR pixel-by-side in the picture.  Your image would be still 4 x wide.

  The trick is that the acquired image is monochrome, but you certainly can still get all the data.

  (It's kind of hard to explain without a whiteboard.  Let me know if that makes sense.

  I think that camera JAI you cited above is a linear scan camera... you need to change the 'ScanType' in the 'CGI' camera 'Area' file, and you may need to adjust the size of the image in order to acquire this camera.

  Let me know how it works.

  Robert, do you see value DMA - including the alpha in an ordinary RGB image plan?  I don't think that there is a way to pull the plane an image color in LabVIEW alpha, but I could be wrong.

• If 15454 supports 80 channels with ROB-10 c-Council?

  Hi all

  Network node has maybe 4 degrees, so I used the Board ROB, but I pretend to know if it supports 80 channels using the interleavers?

  You also need a deinterlacer to separate these 100GHZ and feed in your board ROB (it is like a Demux for these 2 40 channel of the signal in odd & even).

  Click on the following link for the code for the part of INTERLEAVER/DEINTERLEAVER

  http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/prod/collateral/optical/ps5724/ps2006/ps5320/product_data_sheet09186a00801849e7.html

  To extend to 80 channels, you will need many other cards that you can take the help of cisco or Cisco Transposrt Planner to build a bill of material (BOM)

• Is a UPC (Unified Port Controller) of the FI 6200 supports multi protocol port simultaneously?

  Hello a good person.

  Is a UPC (Unified Port Controller) of the FI 6200 supports multi protocol ports simultaneously?

  For example, the second UPC has 1/9-16. Configure the ports like these? 1/9-10 for the server ports, 1/11-12 for the uplink ports, 1/13-14 for FCoE Uplink ports, 1/15 and 16 for the Uplink FC ports and so on. I know that Cisco Documents describe a port can be configured as server port, FC, FCoE... I "don't not interesting in these gross comments."

  Thanks in advance.

  Paul

  In UCS unified configuration of ports is controlled by a scroll bar, as shown here.

  

  There is a fixed configuration for FI ports, then another to the expansion Module. FCoE and Ethernet ports are both type Ethernet from a unified point of view port, CF requires that you select the ports you want to be FC ports.

  All ports to the left of the slider bar will be Ethernet, which can also be configured for FCoE, and everything to the right will be CF.  So to answer your specific scenario above Yes. BUT with a caveat.

  If you have moved the cursor between port 14 and 15 then left would be Ethernet can be configured as a Server Port, Port Uplink or FCoE port and ports 15 and 16 could be configured as FC ports.  BUT the downside would be that ports 17-32 would also be FC ports and you couldn't get to the Ethernet ports later.  If the port configuration is adjacent to ports on fixed ports, as well as on the extension module.

  Best practice is to determine how many FC ports you need and configure each component accordingly.

  Here are some details on the guidelines for the unified configuration of Ports.

• The switch SLM224G does support VLAN per port?

  I'm looking for a simple solution create two LAN. One for my own and the other for my clients, who will be able to use the desktop computer with internet access. I only have one internet connection (ADSL over ISDN) and wil not get another just for my clients.

  My own network should not be accessible or visible to users who use the PC clients. The other way around is authorized, but not really necessary. My setup requires me to connect to the switch to the (ISP) router, and the router has a LAN port not able to do anything related to VIRTUAL networks.

  I read on the VLAN port to put here, where it is stated that creating separate LAN is just the ports in VLANS on the switch, nothing else to do... However, they used a NetGear smart switch.

  I checked SLM224G of Cisco because it is affordable, has 24 ports (instead of 8 for the NetGear) and must support of VLAN. I read a lot about VIRTUAL networks, including:

  «- Means the VLAN per port that you can reconfigure the ports to be in different VLANS.» VLAN per port does not confirm the 802. 1 q supported VLANS.

  -802. 1 q VLAN means you can mark the VLANS with 802. 1 q headers to create a trunk between two devices carrying frames for several VLAN. 802 1 q VLAN confirms that there are also supported VLAN per Port. »

  I knew by the sheets that the SLM224G supports 802. 1 q (tagged) trunking. So it should be, given the text above, also supports VLAN per port.

  My question is if it indeed will support VLAN per port?

  I am able to use it directly behind the router of my ISP and create two separate LAN?

  If so, a supplementary question: how are the PC behind the switch (inside the two VLAN) removes the ISP router IP addresses? It will serve only of the two LAN or do I have to install a DHCP server in the other LAN?

  Any information is welcome!

  Thank you.

  Mr. Bertrand,

  
  

  I read what you posted and I don't think the slm224g will do what your configuration you want to.  The reason behind all this, if you have installed 2 VLAN you will need 2 gateways for each network.  Since then just the ISP router and a network.  I'd get a router capable of VLANs and plug it into the router of the Internet service provider and then you can have up to 4 networks behind your router.  The rvs4000 is a router excellent gigabits, which supports up to 4 VLANS.  So if you need additional ports, you can get unmanaged switches and plug it into the router for added ports.
