Hi,
we have a setup with a nexus 5010 and 2 ucs c200 m2 with p81E CNA.
We have configured the nexus with one vsan, 20, and two vfc. Every cna is bound to his own vfc, and we can see the VFC up, but the vsan operational state is down...
attached the relevant part of configuration
here's the output
# sh int brie

The problem was linked to the fact that in CIMC we MUST set the fcoe vlan in P81E fc0 and fc1.

Hi Gianstefano,
Where do you actually configured the fcoe VLAN in the CIMC ?
Is it the "default vlan " configuration in the HBA ?

connect via ssh
scope chassis
scope adapter 1
scope host-fc-if fc0
set vlan
commit
scope host-fc-if fc1
set vlan
commit
YOU MUST REBOOT the ucs before the change takes effect.

That's right. maily 2 parts to let systems know which vlan carry fcoe traffic
1) on N5K side, need
vlan
fcoe vsan 20
2) on the CIMC's vHBA property
specify

I can't seem to scope to the VIC adapter at all on my C200 M1, even though it's definitely installed and actually functions just fine. White papers show that there should be a "Cisco VIC Adapters" tab in the CIMC, but it doesn't exist for me. I've run HUU and updated everything, but no joy.
