Nexus 9000 don't create vdc

[joseluis68]

I have 2 nexus 9000 C9348GC-FXP conected by vPC

When I try to create a vdc :

SWITCH01#
NWITCH01# conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
SWITCH01(config)# vdc NEWVDC
                                 ^
% Invalid command at '^' marker.
SWITCH01(config)#

Why don't create new VDC

Thanks

Virtual Device Contexts

Cisco NX-OS can segment operating system and hardware resources into virtual device contexts (VDCs) that emulate virtual devices. The Cisco Nexus 9000 Series switches currently do not support multiple VDCs. All switch resources are managed in the default VDC

Thanks,

VDC are supported only on Nexus 7000/7700.

I wonder what happens with VDCs when they EOL the 7k series Nexus because I am sure its coming eventually due to the push to 9k and ACI.
