Cisco UCS Fabric Interconnect

[haitham.jneid]

Hi Experts,

I have couple of UCSC-C220-M4S that will be directly connected to Fabric Interconnect without going through a FEX. The Fabric Interconnect will be connected to Nexus 5K.

I know how to set up FI cluster and configure uplink ports and server ports (to discover chassis).

I need someone to support me on the following:

• Install ESXi on the Chassis from FI (how to)
• Install VMs on top of ESXi (how to)
• FC configuration setup.

thanks,

Haitham
