c-series or b-series

[Mary]

I have a device connect to e2/3, from UCS cli, how would I know whether this is B-series server or c-series server?

how would i know this device support ethernet or FCOE, if the port mode is vntag, can i say it support FCOE?

Depending on what you are asking:

If you want to know what blades are pinned out a particular eth uplink in a FI, issue the following command from nxos cli on UCSM/FI:#show pinning border-interfaces active.

This will show 'Veths' that are pinned to a physical port (or the port channel).  Take the Veths, and do  #show int vethxxxx

The 3rd line down in output will have "Port Description is server x/y, VNIC abc", so you will know which blade or rack server(s) are utilizing this particular uplink.

Blades will be reference with x/y numbering, where as rack servers will just be referenced as server x.

You need to figure out what kind of CNA is installed in a server, as to whether it supports FCOE, and if the upstream switch has FCOE support.

Thanks,
