5010 in fcoe-npv

[tpahuja]

Folks,

           When I enable fcoe-npv feature on my 5010, I notice that it does not recognise fc ports on my expansion slot.

2    8      4x10GE + 4x1/2/4G FC Module      N5K-M1404              ok

when I enable fcoe and npv individually then it recognises the FC modules. Is the behavious the same on 5548s?

Any help would be highly appreciated.

This is probably expected behavior.  The FCoE-NPV license is only for FCoE.  The would not include FC ports.

Enabling FCoE NPV

You can enable FCoE NPV using the feature fcoe-npv  command. We recommend this method in topologies that include all FCoE  connections. A write erase reload does not occur when you use this  method and a storage service license is not required. Enabling FCoE NPV  using the feature fcoe-npv command requires an installed FCOE_NPV_PKG  license.

Thank You,
