Adding new MDS switches into exisitng VSAN in NDFC

[TimDo]

Hi there everyone,  I'm reaching to see if anyone knows how to add new MDS switches into an exisiting VSAN in Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller (NDFC version 12.2.1.316).  This option was available in Data Centre Network Manager (DCNM) by going to DataCentre-->SAN.  Right mouse click on the VSAN that you want to add the new switch and then select "Add Switches to VSAN.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Thanks for the info but this document relates for NDFC for LAN and not for SAN which is what I'm after.

Hi, 

Go into manage/fabrics; open the fabric that the switch is being added to and go to the VSAN tab. Once there you can add or manage any VSANs needed.
