You must configure your switches for FCoE before your FC service can run over the existing Ethernet infrastructure.
Before you begin
- Your SAN configuration must be supported.
For more information about supported configurations, see the Interoperability Matrix.
- A Unified Target Adapter (UTA) must be installed on your storage system.
If you are using a UTA2, it must be set to cna mode.
- A converged network adapter (CNA) must be installed on your host.
Procedure
- Use your switch documentation to configure your switches for FCoE.
-
Use the
dcb show command to verify that the DCB settings for each node in the cluster have been correctly configured.
run -node node1 -command dcb show
DCB settings are configured on the switch. Consult your switch documentation if the settings are incorrect.
- Use the fcp adapter show command to verify that the FCoE login is working when the FC target port online status is true.
cluster1::> fcp adapter show -fields node,adapter,status,state,speed,fabric-established,physical-protocol
If the FC target port online status is false, consult your switch documentation.
