You should change the optical modules on the unified target adapter (CNA/UTA2) to support the personality mode you have selected for the adapter.

Steps

  1. Verify the current SFP+ used in the card. Then, replace the current SFP+ with the appropriate SFP+ for the preferred personality (FC or CNA).

  2. Remove the current optical modules from the X1143A-R6 adapter.

  3. Insert the correct modules for your preferred personality mode (FC or CNA) optics.

  4. Verify that you have the correct SFP+ installed:

    Supported SFP+ modules and Cisco-branded Copper (Twinax) cables are listed in the NetApp Hardware Universe.
