Configure nexus 5000 switchport mode f to connect a standalone server

[jefferymitchell]

I need to connect a standalone server to our nexus 5000 switch. I configured the switchport mode f. What are the next steps to needed for the server to access the san?

After configuring the mode, than you need to add the vlan to that port.  If the port is configured in access mode than simply add the vlan you want to that port.

We're talking OSX not IOS This is a Nexus 5000 switch.

Here's what I was searching for:

Step 1: Find wwn for the port your connecting "Sh flogi database" locate the fc port and the target port id

Step 2: Record the wwn  for both the initiator(server) target(San)

Step 3: configure the zone member Nex_5000(config)# zone name esx000_1 vsan(#)

                                                         Nex_5000(config-zone)mem pwwn (server wwn)

                                                         Nex_5000(config-zone)mem pwwn (san wwn)

                                                          Nex_5000(config-zone)exit

Step 4 Add member to zone-set: Nex_5000(config)#zoneset name ucs-emc-c vsan(#)

                                                     Nex_5000(config-zoneset)#member esx000_1

Step 5 Activate member that is not active: Nex_5000(config)# zoneset activate name ucs-emc-c vsan 1

To verify: sh zoneset active
