Here another one in regards to the UCS Mini if you were interested;

Please let me know if this helped guide you to your solution. If you did please mark it as correct since others can find helpful posts easier.

Why do you want direct FC attachment ?

is this a test / lab setup or a production one ?

Just be aware the the FC switch implementation on the FI is not feature compatible with MDS SAN-OS ?

Therefore for a production environment I would go with FC end host mode.

Regarding configuring FC ports on UCS-mini, see my comment
