B200M4 w/1340 vNIC placement order not adhered to when you go from 6 vNICs to 8 or more vNICs

Hi,

I'm running into an issue when I increase the vNIC qty on my blade servers from 6 to 8 or more vNICs and the placement order is not adhered to.

Basically the first 3 vNICs and the last are in order, from 4 onwards its mixed up........

Right now it stops the NFS datastores from mounting as the NFS nics are associated to a different vSwitch and are some of my other NICs

I have tried the following placement order methods - all with the same results

  • Let System Preform Placement
  • Specify Manually
    • with and without changing the Admin Host Port 
  • Placement Policy
    • RR 
    • Linear Order

 

I'm running an A and B MAC pool (Assignment order = Default) and my A and B vNICs were associated accordingly

I've created a new larger MAC pool and set the Assignment Order to Sequential, changed all the vNIC tempaltes to use the new MAC pool, created a new SP-Template and new SP, asscioated the server - still no success

Ive upgraded firmware from 2.2(3g) to 2.2(5b) - no success

 

 

Any ideas?

Cheers

Mike
