Hi, all,
i have configured Service Profile Template, but i can not assign it on blade server because of following error
There are not enough resources overall
MAC address assignment failed for a vNIC, possibly illegal MAC address or no available MACs in the pool
It's quite intresting error, because there are 20 free mac-address in MAC-POOL. Service Profile contains 2 vNIC: vNIC, iSCSI vNIC.
Hardwire NIC is 1240.

Hey Vadim,
Can you confirm which MAC pool you are using for your iSCSI vNIC? I see your ethernet vNic have MAC addresses assigned, however the iSCSI vNIC is listed as "derived"
See if setting the pool correctly helps resolve the error.
Thanks,
Wes

I haven't choosen any mac address pool for iSCSI, because i follow following advice "Do NOT assign MAC addresses here!! Will not boot if you do!!"

Hi Vadim
Did you follow the procedure of
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/servers-unified-computing/ucs-manager/116003-iscsi-ucs-config-00.html
Did you create a iSCSI vnic, and to which overlay vnic is it mapped ?
Is the overlay vnic in the native vlan ?

Hi Vadim
1) Don't understand why you are using Ethernet in switch mode ? Why ? 99.9% of all UCS installation are running in End host mode.
2) is it correct, that you configured your 2 virtual interfaces with the hardware failover flag set ?
If yes, I would clearly propose that you attach one veth to fabric A resp B.
Walter.
