Hyper-V NPIV support in UCS

[richbarb]

Hello guys,

I'm trying to use a feature "virtual SAN switch" in a Hyper-V 2012 enviroment with UCS, but I have passed for some issues to deploy it.

I have one UCS domain with 2x6248, 2 chassis and 16 servers B200 M3 (E5-2650, 128GB of RAM and 1240/1280 VICs).

My Interconnect is working in end-host-mode with a brocade upstream SAN switch with NPIV enabled.

Everything works fine until I try create a new vHBA for a virtual machine in a SCVMM.

I get this error:

Anyone have passed through this before?

I guess this feature isn't supported by US yet.

Thanks for any help.

Richard

Hello Richard,

The next release of UCSM ( 2.1.2 ) will support Windows NPIV feature.

Padma,

Do you know when this UCS version will be launched? The first forecast that I get had the date of march/13, but nothing so far.

Very appreciate your help.

Hi Padma,

I am also facing the same issue in one of our customer location, Instead of waiting for the Firmware relase, is there is any way to complete the deployment.
