I have 2 mds9506 in the Pas location and two more .5 miles away in the Alt location. PasMds1 has an ISL to AltMds1 using dark fiber. PasMds2 has an ISL to AltMds2. The ISLs are on 2 TE ports on each switch. We have Vsan 101 on TE ports on the Mds1 sw...
Using Device manager I can go to the FLOGI tab for an fc port. Usually the PortName and the NodeName have the exact same wwn. But with our Unisys host HBA, the port name starts with 10:00 while NodeName starts with 50:80. What is the differnece betwe...
We have to locations about 1/2 mile apart. They are Pasteur and Alton. Pastuer has 2 9506 switches - pasmds1 and pasmds2. Alton has 2 9506 switches altmds1 and altmds2. Pasmds1 has a new ISL to altmds1. Pasmds2 has a new ISL with altmds2. These are t...
Hello, We have 2 switches that have an ISL between them. We no longer need the ISL. To remove - can we simply disable the ISL ports and unplug the cables that connect the 2 switches? Are there other steps required to remove all traces of this old ISL...
It's actually the firt octet that is changing. For example the portName for my multiport Emulex card is 10000000c9592f6c. The NodeName is 2000000c9592f6c. The "1" is simply changed for "2". This is occuring for AIX Servers and Windows Servers. There ...
It sounds like I would be better off not using vsan id 200 on each connected switch since there is no ISL on vsan200. Maybe I'll change one of them to vsan220.The pasmds1 is connected to altmds1 and pasmds2 is connected to altmds2. We use the vsan101...
Mike thanks for the info. Hopefully the steps below will get me on the right track.1. Shutdown TE port fc3/45.2. Modify the trunk allowed list to not allow vsan 200 traffic, only allow 201 traffic.3. Bring the TE port upNow only VSAN 201 traffic will...
