Jumbo Frames not Working cisco 9300 or 3650

Hello Friends. We have a situation.

Current Setup:-   VMware-->Cisco 3750-->>NetApp iscsi. Jumbo frames enabled mtu 9000 bytes. VMWare Storage Resides on NetApp Via ISCSI using switch 3750.

We would like to replace the cisco 3750 with Catalyst 3650. Exact same configuration. The issue we are running into is when we move our connections from (existing 3750) to new 3650, vmware gets stuck on refreshing the storage. The weird thing is we can ping everything from all devices, it's just the storage cannot be scanned and updated. That is the only reason I'm thinkin the Global MTU on new 3650 should be 9000 (same as existing 3750) or should it be set to max which is 9198 bytes. Any help/assistance would be appreciated.

Server-Switch3#show platform software fed switch active ifm if-id 0x4f | inc MTU

rm software fed switch active ifm if-id 0x4f | inc MTU
Jumbo MTU ............ [0]

sh controlelrs

Here are some more commands I ran following your.  Since we have a stack of 2 switches, it shows 0 on active switch and 9000 & 9198 on standby switches....how do I fix that?

Server-Switch3#sh platform software fed switch active ifm if-id 0x9 | inc MTU

Server-Switch3#sh platform software fed switch st ifm if-id 0x9 | inc MTU
Server-Switch3#sh platform software fed switch standby ifm if-id 0x9 | inc MTU

Server-Switch3#$ software fed switch active ifm if-id 0xf | inc MTU

you use active and standby correct but are the if-id of active and standby is same ?

meaning? or How do I check it?

you use if-id in same switch active and switch standby, are both show same if-id ?

do I use this same command?

sh platform software fed switch active ifm if-id 0x9 | inc MTU

Server-Switch3#show platform software fed switch standby ifm mappings
then use 
sh platform software fed switch stnadby ifm if-id ???? | inc MTU

Server-Switch3#show platform software fed switch standby ifm mappings

sh platform software fed switch standby ifm if-id (select any interface with jumboframe ) | inc MTU

Here you go:- all 6 ports which are in question. 1 quick note, gi1/1/1 and gi2/1/1 are in port-channel 5

And Port-Channel 5 has an MTU of 9198..

On another note, here is my int config from working 3750X switch. The packet output is so huge.... you can check..
