Hi Folks, We have a setup where we are running a Dell B22 FEX in Blade enviornment and want to connect the B22 FEX to a cisco Nexus 6001 switch. As per NX-OS release note, B22 FEX and 6001 Nexus connectivity is supported. Now after connecting to Nexus 6001, how do i get access to storage pool or SAN fabric ?  As per another thread of discussion, Nexus 6001 does not support direct fabric attachment at this point in time. So how do we bridge these two elements to a storage fabric ?? As per 6.02 release note: "Support for DELL FEX # Added support for the Cisco Nexus B22 Dell Fabric Extender for Cisco Nexus 6000 Series switches starting with the 6.0(2)N1(2) release." This is the exact reason we bought it. We have a enviornment where we are running Dell B22 FEX.  Idea is to connect the B22 FEX into Nexus 6001. We are confuse at this point. After connecting the Dell B22 FEX to Nexus 6001, how to access the storage network or storage fabric ?? Thanks, ... View more

Hello, One of my 5020 port is going disabled due to excessive pause it is receiving. The Cisco switch disables the port and will recover from the error based on the recovery setting and recovery interval. Unfortunately the minimum interval is 30 seconds and i dont want to wait 30 secs for recovery due to some test i am doing. I would like to find out if there is a way to stop port getting disabled because of “pauseRateLimitErrDisable” error. Thanks. ... View more
