Hello,
We have some trouble for getting up a new Nexus 2232 TM with our existing N5K (5010) with following image: n5000-uk9.5.0.2.N1.1.bin
here's my N5K current config regarding the connection between N5K & N2K:
version 5.0(2)N1(1)
feature telnet
no feature ssh
cfs eth distribute
feature interface-vlan
feature lacp
feature vpc
feature lldp
feature fex
...
fex 103
pinning max-links 1
description "2KSRV02"
...
interface port-channel103
description FEX Server 2
switchport mode fex-fabric
fex associate 103
...
interface Ethernet1/9
description FEX Server 2 PO103
fex associate 103
switchport mode fex-fabric
channel-group 103
interface Ethernet1/10
description FEX Server 2 PO103
fex associate 103
switchport mode fex-fabric
channel-group 103
When we connect the new 2232TM nexus we got this message:

This goes on repeatedly.
I think there's maybe an issue with existing image on N5K that's maybe too old to recognize the Nexus 2232 TM which has been manufactured later on...
Can you confirm this? I've looked for some release notes about the 2232TM without any success
Thank you for any help you can provide

You need minimum 5.0(3)N2(1) for 2232TM
