FCoE on N7K

Jignesh Desai

I'm trying to understand what the best practice is in connecting multiple links to the Storage VDC.  What is recommended, connecting multiple links to the same line card or splitting it up between two line cards?  Also not clear if you have to license each line card for FCoE.

Thanks

It will be good idea to connect the multiple links across different line cards which will prevent you from losing access to storage in case of a line card failure. About license, yes, you would need FCoE license for both the line cards.

Hi Jiqnesh,

What type of CNAs are you using on your servers? Did you experience any issues with flogi login when you began your configuration?
