Preparing to create a new VDC environment on Nexus 7010 dual Sup-1, NX-OS 6.2(12)
We currently have 1 unused VDC, Would like to perform some pre-VDC environment checks to ensure adequate system resources are available. We also have the correct unallocated interfaces available for this VDC (Keepalive link, vPC link, and 2 FEX uplink ports.
Can anyone that knows the N7K pretty well offer any advice?
Thanks Frank
