Cisco Nexus Allocating Interface

[CiscoNutt]

I am trying to allocate an interface to a VDC but am getting the following error: ERROR: 1 or more interfaces are from a module of type not supported by this VDC

The chassis is a Nexus 7000

The module in question is a N7K-F248XP-25E

When I do a show vdc membership, the VDC in question has no interfaces allocated to it.

When I do a show vdc I see the following:

vdc_id    type          vdc_name      lc                             state          mac

2         Ethernet       vdc_name   m1 f1 m1x1 m2,1       active        xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

could this be that f2 is not listed under the lc field?

How would I go about getting support for the f2 card?  I really hope Cisco did not send us a supervisor that does not support F2 cards...if that is at all possible.

thanks

Hi,

You need change the module type from resource limits under the VDC.

Enter either of the following two commands to obtain the necessary module information the VDCs will utilize.
#show inventory
or
#show module

Assign those module's resources per VDC with commands below using the module information obtained above.
#conig t
(config)# vdc "vdc-name"
(config-vdc)# limit-resource module-type [ f1 | f2 | f2e | f3 | m1 | m1x1 | m2x1 ]
