Thank you - is that accessed via the ILO web interface or via the BIOS / F9, etc.?

That is correct - when I start to install the OS I can see eth0 and eth1  - but not the remaining nics.

Remaining nic are created by firmware/Virtual connect , that split 2
physical nic to up 8 virtual nic so

Problem can be

Nic

Firmware nic

Driver nic

Vc

That's all

Networking for HPE C7000 and Cisco Nexus switches

$

Good morning everyone!

I'm looking at getting a new C7000 chassis with dual 10GB VC modules connected up to a pair of Cisco Nexus 9000 series switches.

Right now, I've got one port from each VC module connected to each of the Nexus switches,  with a VPC peer link across the switches, as below:

However, there are a couple of things I'm unclear of:

  1. Should I change the two individual links from each VC module to a LACP/VPC link across the two Nexus switches?
  2. I notice the ports on the VC are broken down into two pairs and a group of four. Does it make any difference which ports I use on the VC modules, for LACP or otherwise?

Thanks in advance for any help with this.

change the enclosure ID in the Domain Settings (C7000)

Hi,

Is it possible to change the Enclosure ID in the Virtual Connect? 

We started to monitor our devices, and we have 5 enc0 (because we have 5 C7000 bladesystems.)

Thank you for any advice!

Hi,

Can anyone explain the difference between FlexFabric and Virtual Connect?

Flexfabric is the name of the Comware line of switches.

Virtual Connect is how you can virtualize blade network connections

Hi Zoli,

No, We cannot change the Encloure ID.

If its only One enclosure with VC domain, it would be Enc0 as the ID.

If you have 2 enclosures part of one VC domain, then you would be having Enclosure IDs as Enc0 and Enc1.

Enc0 would be always Primary enclosure where you would be having Virtual connect domain.

I was hoping that there is a tricky way to change the ID. Thank you for your answer.

c3000 mixing VC and non-VC - Not in adjacent bays

Hi,

 

I have found two setup and installation guides that are more or less the same:

http://h20628.www2.hp.com/km-ext/kmcsdirect/emr_na-c04731477-1.pdf

http://h20628.www2.hp.com/km-ext/kmcsdirect/emr_na-a00018702en_us-1.pdf

and they are not conclusive (page 15) on the following re supported configurations:

In a C3000, can I I have two VC Flex-10 modules in Bay 1 and Bay 2, and have two non-VC (i.e. GBE2c switches) in Bay 3 and bay 4 at the same time? I know I cannot mix in Bay 1/2 or Bay 3/4.

 

One of the PDFs says that both for a C3000 or a C7000 "*"Other" indicates any VC interconnect module for c-Class BladeSystem".

The other PDF says that this is only true for a C3000 and that for a C7000 "In the following tables, "Other" indicates any c-Class interconnect module including a VC, Pass-Thru, or switch"

Anyone has a config running with VC modules in Interconnect Bay 1 and 2 and non-VC in Bay 3 and 4?

 

Thanks,

Ruben

Yes you can do that

The trick is in mezzanine card on blade

Can you elaborate on the Mezzanine "trick"?

I was planning on using the two on board 10GB nics on the BL460cG8, to talk to the first VC interconenct in bay 1 and then a 2-port 10GB Mezzanine in the first Mezz slot (to get to the 10GB VC in the 2nd interconenct bay). Then a 4 port 1GB ethernet port Mezz in the 2nd Mezzanine slot to talkk to the GBE2c switches in interconenct slot 3 and 4.

That's right you need to carrefully install Mez card to match to 4 an 3
chassis interconnect slots

No all blade can be capable to do that

Hello,

Did you resolved your problem? I'm having the same issue. Addind a 14th Blade the WWN are not passing to my SAN Switch. All the other Blades are OK.

Thanks.
