Additional information below.

When port-channel 3 is set to switchport mode fex-fabric  the VFC changes to error disabled, but FcOE channels (1-15) changes to UP

When port-channel 3 is set to switchport mode trunk, the VFC changes to UP, but FCoE channels changes to down.

Duplicate post.

Both VFCs and FCOEs are up now.

(There was an issu in binding to interfaces.)

Still not reading the WWNs and MACs from B22/Qlogic/DellM1000e

LACP is enabled.

Vlan 1 is native

Please let me know of any info on how to read WWN and MAC details.
