When migrating host DVS to N1000V it requires that there are no active VMs on host's vswitch. Does this mean there's no way to run vcenter on a vm on this host?

HI ALL,does Nexus 2232TM can work as a FEX for N5010P?if so can we also use FET to connect the above two switches?ThanksAhmed

Hi allWe run two nexus 7000 in a vpc configuration. Now, we need to configure an additional VLAN on the switches. Is there a problem with the consistency if I configure a additional VLAN on one nexus first. Or, in other words, is vpc going down in th...

Hi All,nexus1010 has 4 connectivity options. my questions is:if we initially deploy option 1 for paired 1010 and 1000v switch has been built, are we able to change to other option e.g. option 3 later whithout requesting 1000v rebuild?  Best REGARDS
