The ports on the 2232 will be err-disabled since the N4K is a switch and it will send out BPDU.

You should consider to connect the N4K to the N7K directly.

HTH,

Ok Thanks,

Should it make a difference if i will connect single N4K with Port-Channel to single FEX-2232 ?, in that case i do not need STP.

Still going to be the same. Unless you disable STP on N4K so it is not sending out BPDU which is very risky and it can introduce a loop. Bottom line, don't connect the N4K to the 2232.
