When to add VLANs to port channel? - Hyperflex New Cluster HXDP

Markus5849
Level 1
Level 1

I'm going to create a new standard Hyperflex cluster with HXDP and a set of UCS cluster. As I know the VLANs I do not have to create it manually prior the HX cluster creation (Mgmt, vMotion, Data, VM) since the HXDP installer will create it automatically inside UCS Domain. But would like to know how about the port channel VLANs assignment? Like when should I add the VLANs into port channel, is it after the cluster creation or during the cluster creation I can add it to port channel as long as those VLANs are populated by HXDP? 

 

I couldn't find any information regarding this and hopefully someone could advise me on this. Any help is much appreciated.

I'm not 100% sure which VLANs you're adding to which port-channel.

But I'm assuming the HX Mgmt/vMotion/Data/VM VLANs to the UCS FI uplink port-channel.

 

Adding a VLAN to the uplink port-channel is only needed for disjoint layer 2 configurations.

Do you have disjoint layer 2?

 

I'd probably wait until after the Hyperflex deployment is complete.
