Expansion of existing UCS Infra is possible or not !!

[andyblada1]

Hello Team,

I am using a pair of 6248 UP interconnect with 4 links discovery architecture & 4 uplinks for ethernet (No FC, only ISCSI).Rest 44 are server ports.

Questions is maximum chassis i can connect? i belive 11. correct me if i am worng.

If i want to add more chassis in the same UCS domain is there mechanism?
May be by attaching 10 chassis and use remaining 4 ports for other FI connection.Is it possible?

If i really want to expand my existing UCS INfra? Is ther any way or alternative.

See configuration limits

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/unified_computing/ucs/sw/configuration_limits/2-0/b_UCS_Configuration_Limits_2_0.html

Max. number of chassis for 61xx/62xx is 20.

The only way to scale is going from 6248 to 6296 ! There is no support of clustering FI's !
