Connectivity Issue between Nexus 5548 to VNX 5300

Hi All,
I am doing a lab setup where i want to connect Nexus 5548 UP to VNX 5300 storage directly. The physical connectivity is established between switch and storage but On Nexus the status of the port shows "linkFailure". I tried matching the port mode (like Auto, F) and speed but the port always shows "linkFailure".
The connectivity from Nexus to VNX is FC.
Anyone can suggest the root cause or any troubleshooting steps.
Regards,
Abhilash

LinkFailure might be a GUI status.
show interface fcx/y might say,
Link failure or not connected
The physical layer link is not operational.
This means the switch is not detecting light, so the phyiscal layer is the cable and lasers (sfp's, HBAs or whatever adapter the VNX uses). It could mean you need to turn the interfaace up from the vnx side.

Updating to iOS 8.3 has caused a connectivity issue between my iPad and my Dual150 external GPS. Can I revert to a previous version of iOS?

The only way to get this working again is to downgrade to 8.2
Seems Apple does not have this on a high priority list and am not willing to buy something that works for a lot of money. The flying community who uses this for navigation is having a lot of problems with this issue. The position awareness is compromised. Hope they fix this quickly

Connectivity issues between Cisco 2901 and Cisco SG300-52

Hello,
I am having some serious connectivity issues between the hosts in my LAN.
My LAN is based on a Cisco 2901 router and a Cisco SG300-52 port switch.
The issue that has been happening is that connections between hosts on the LAN (remote desktop, extended ping, etc) is very unstable, at some point I can see a 35% lost packets on an extended ping. This happens at any time of the day and from any host.
All hosts are on the same Vlan(default Vlan) and on the same subnet. Some hosts have fixed IP addresses (servers and network equipment) and others obtain their IP address trough a DHCP reservation established on the router (reserved with the MAC address of every host).
I can provide further details if needed, because this issue is very serious and I would really appreciate any insight or support.
Many thanks in advanced.
Sair Amer
EDIT: After doing every test we could think of, we finally found the reason behind this problem.
It turns out that the switch has problems handling communications between clients at different speeds, because most of the hosts connected were working at 100 Mbps but the servers were working at 1000 Mbps (and the communication between host and servers wasn't stable).
After manually setting the speed on all ports to 100 Mbps the problems have stopped.
Many thanks for you help on this issue.

Direct connect to UCS FI from EMC VNX 5300

Hi,
I'm looking for any configuration recommendations or best practices for configuring a VNX 5300 unified for direct connect to UCS Fabric Interconnects.
The direct connect wil be 10GB on both the file and block side.
Are their any guides or recommendations anyone may have?
I've looked and cannot find much.

Hi Manuel,
Two things:
1) Take a look at the following matrix for the supported version
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/datacenter/mds9000/interoperability/matrix/Matrix8.html
2) Currently the direct attch FC is supported under a restricted to topologies in which the zoning database is provided from an upstream Cisco MDS 9000 switch or Nexus 5000 or 5500 switch. Hence you would still have to conenct an MDS or a N5K to the FIs for the zoning info.

Telephony Issues on Nexus 5548

Dear Viewers,
I have Nexus 5548 devices in one of my client data centers and i have one 3750 switch to which all of these Avaya voice servers connect.
The 3750 switch was initially connected through a L2 Link to a 6509 catalyst switch and the telephony applications were working correctly.
The problem arises when i move this 3750 layer 2 link to a Nexus 5548 (OS version 5.1(3)N1 switch. All telephony calls coming from the outside (External calls) are not working as required but the internal calls work as usual.
What is odd is that when i migrate this L2 link back to the 6509 switch, all works as usual. This is just a layer 2 connection and i am wondering why this is not possible.
The vlan is accepted on all relevant trunks. I also deactivated igmp snooping on this voice vlan on the Nexus 5548 thinking it would help but in vain.
Any ideas and suggestions are welcome.
regards.
Alain

Connection issue between Cisco 515 Pix and Cisco 1841 router

Hi,
I am having a problem getting a Cisco Pix 515 communicating to a Cisco 1841. I am currently studying for CCNA so forgive me if it's obvious to the rest of you where the problem lies.
The client currently has an ISDN service which is being moved over to a 2MB E1 connection.
I have configured the 1841 router with G.703 WIC according to the information given to me by the ISP. I have configured the 1841 to have the same internal IP as the ISDN Cisco 800 series router, hoping for a simple swap over. The Pix 515 sits behind the ISDN at present and will be behind the 1841 when it is active.
Once I unplug the 800 series ISDN router and plug the 1841 into the pix, I cannot get any response what so ever. I have tried changing the ethernet connection speeds between the pix and 1841 hoping it would be as simple as that without success. Can't get ping responses from either end but I can when the ISDN service is plugged in. Both ISDN and E1 link are supplied by the same ISP, Telstra Australia and the fixed IP's are able to move over to the E1 service.
I have not touched the pix in any way. A seperate company configured the router a couple of years ago.
I have included the configurations of the existing ISDN, Pix and the 1841 for you to review. Any advise/solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance,

Hi,
The outside interface on your PIX is configured as 10BaseT which would be fine when using the original 800 series ISDN router.
Now with your new 1841, the interface that the PIX connects to is Fast Ethernet so you need to change your outside interface on the PIX to the same
If you want to use auto negotiation between the PIX and router then the command to do this on the PIX is
interface ethernet0 auto
I recommend using hard coded settings between the PIX and router and the command to do this on this PIX is
interface ethernet0 100full
You will also need to change your router as:
interface FastEthernet0/0
speed 100
duplex full
If you can't configure the PIX as you mentioned an external company did it, then i guess you could change your Fast Ethernet interface to "speed 10", "duplex half".
This won't create a bottleneck as you only have a 2 MB connection to your ISP
Everything else looks good, don't worry about asking questions on the forum, this is what its for.

Interoperability issues between Nexus 5k and HP storageworks (8/20q)

Hello community,
I am trying to get a VM host and a windows server to connect to their storage across a nexus and HP (Qlogic) fabric switch. This is currently having issues with the VM host unable to see the datastores, possibly due to interoperability between Cisco and HP (Qlogic)
I have configured and tested the connectivity using only the cisco nexus and this worked, I then tested it using only the HP fabric switch (HP 8/20q) and this also worked.
However, when using the HP and Cisco Nexus as shown in the attached diagram, things stop working.
The connection is using Native Fibre channel, On the Cisco side I performed the following steps
Configured the Nexus with Domain ID 10 and the HP with Domain ID 20.
Connected the 2 fabric switches on fc1/48 (Cisco) and port 0 (HP) and confirmed that the ISL came up (E_port 8G), I confirmed connectivity using fcping both ways.
I connected the SAN to the Nexus and the servers to the HP
Configured VSAN 10
Added interfaces fc1/41 to 48 in VSAN 10
Created 2 zones ( ESXI and Windows)
Added the PWWN for the ESXI server and the MSA2040 to the ESXI zone
Added the PWWN for the Windows 2k8 server and MS2040 to the Windows zones
Created zoneset (Fabric-A) and added both the above zones in it
Activated the FABRIC-A zoneset
The result is that the zones and zoneset are synchronised to the HP switch .I confirmed that I was able to see the servers and SAN WWN in the correct zones on the HP.
From the 8/20q switch I am able to fcping the SAN, Nexus and servers, however the Nexus is only able to fcping the SAN and the HP, it returns a “no response from destination” when pinging the servers.
I have added the FCID for all the units in the same zones to see if it makes any difference to no avail the result seem to be the same. I have gone through various Nexus/MDS/HP/Qlogic user guides and forums; unfortunately I have not come across any that shows this specific topology.
source for HP user guide is here: http://h20565.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c02256394
I’m attaching the nexus config and partial view of the “show interface brief” showing the fibre channel port status
Interface Vsan   Admin Admin   Status          SFP    Oper Oper   Port
                  Mode   Trunk                          Mode Speed Channel

fc1/48     10     auto   on      up               swl    E       8    --
Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance

Hi all, after much reading, Walter Dey provided the hint to put me on the right track.
By default the Nexus 5k is in interop mode 1. However, one of the requirement for this to be "interoperable" with other vendor the FCDomain ID in the entire fabric needs to be between 97 and 127 as stated in the Cisco website.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/storage/san_switches/mds9000/interoperability/guide/ICG_test.html
Another issue that had me and my colleague scratching our heads, was that we were seeing high level of CRC errors on the ISL interfaces. This was caused by ARBFF settings mismatch between the Nexus and the HP. This was resolved by ensuring that the ARBFF setting on the HP was set to false and the command "switchport fill-pattern ARBFF speed 8000" is configured on the ISL interface linking the 2 switches. (note that Cisco's default setting for the ports is IDLE, until this is changed the link will not stabilise)
Thanks for all your help guys.

Link FC between Nexus 5548 UP and Brocade 300

Hello,
I have got two Nexus 5548UP and fabric Brocade.
I would like to connect my Nexus at my fabric Brocade.
See the pdf file.
Best regards,

Its possible to have more links between npv and brocade but if you want to port channel them, please check first with brocade support if they allow F port channel trunking in their code. Not sure if FOS 6.2.2 supports it. From our side (cisco switch running npv) we should be able to do a port channel upto any NPIV switch provided the upstream switch supports it.

Connection issues between 64 bit SSIS and Oracle in 64bit

I've got a Win2K3 Std Ed server (x64) running 64-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition. I've installed the Oracle 10g 64 bit and and installed ODAC 64 bit then oracle patch to take care of () issue, i managed to create a link server on management studio and connect to oracle a 64 bit server
Now... when I try to create a new connection manager in SQL Server 2005 Integration Services i got the following error, the OLEDB provider for Oracle can't be found, and when I try to manually add an underlying OLEDB connection to the database, SQL Server reports: i got the following error....
Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. The 'OraOLEDB.Oracle.1' provider is not registered on the local machine.
Note: my sql server agent is not running on this server, let me know if this is an issue.

I think I resolved this issue by installing Oracle 11g 32bit & 64bit clients in the 64bit SQL Server machine.

Wireless connectivity issue between MacBook Pro/ iTouch and Airport Express

I'm creating a wireless network at home using my airport express and depending on the configuration settings I set in the airport utility, I will face the following issues:
1- To connect my MacBook Pro to the wireless network created, I have to set the radio mode to 802.11n only (5 GHz). Any other radio mode (a/b/g compatible or n only (2.4 GHz)) will not work ("Couldn't find the network")
2- Conversely, the use of the radio mode 802.11n only (5 GHz) with my iTouch doesn't work ("Couldn't find the network"). To connect my iTouch to the wireless network created, I have to set the radio mode to 802.11a/b/g compatible or to n only (2.4 GHz)
As a result, I manage to 1) either connect to a wireless network created with my airport express with my MacBook Pro only 2) or with my iTouch only, depending on the configuration setup.
I'm using the latest updates for the airport utility (7.4.2), iTouch (3.1.3) and Mac OSX (10.6.4).
Any help on this?

if you set it to the most compatible with the least common denominator you should be able to connect with both. (If that's what I understand you are trying to achieve).

Connectivity Issue Between MacBook Pro and Mac Mini

I have a MacBook Pro and a Mac Mini both with Yosemite 10.10.2, I've never had any issues with them sharing a connection when I was home, (I've never been able to connect outside of my home network) but I use the Mini to backup my MacBook Pro, but has of February 11th my MacBook Pro doesn't see my Mac Mini no matter what I do. I can share the screen from the Mini to the Book Pro but I can't remotely access the Mini from the MacBook Pro. I've turned off Back to My Mac on both Macs and removed it from my Airport Extreme and re-entered all of the information. I signed out of iCloud on both Macs and signed back in. I haven't changed any settings at all before I lost the connection, I am not sure how to resolve this issue.

Hey there GRivera210,
It sounds like you are having issues with using Back to my Mac. I would recommend using the troubleshooting outlined in the following article to help resolve the issue. It also has a contact for the iCloud support team if it doesnt resolve it:
If you have issues using Back to My Mac
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Connectivity issue between STVN OrgChart 2.1 and SAP

Hi all,
We're facing an issue below:
We have installed OrgChart 2.1 Live, but when configuring (http://localhost/orgchart/manager.aspx) there's an option of Staged there to be filled.
Is that right? Do we need to configure Staged even we choose Live on installation or leave those fields on blank?
Also when we try to connect to SAP server via (http://localhost/orgchart/default.aspx) using username and password nothing happens just a message (invalid login).
Do we need to configure something else? Roles? etc?
Hope you can help us soon!
KR,
Marcelo

Hi Marcelo,
You can ignore the Staged configuration in the Live version. From STVN2.1 the admin console includes both.
You need to configure the role mapping in either RoleMapping.xml or the administrator console (in Security). If a user doesn't have a role that is mapped then they cannot log into the application.
Kind regards,
Luke

Connectivity Issues Between my AirPort Express and Dell Inspiron

I have an Airport Extreme set up in my home office, and then two AirPort Expresses set up around the house, but if my Dell Inspiron is anywhere in the building other than in the home office room it will barely connect to the network. My Macbook pro has no issues roaming about the house, but for some reason the dell does, even if it is parked right next to one of the airport express range extenders... Any thoughts?

". . . but a WIFI signal is a WIFI signal right?"
I think so, but what do I know. I also saw where another person suggested checking the "Linksys WPA" settings. Might work, but I have absolutely no idea what they are or where I'd find them (although I did write and ask). Here's a link to that thread, maybe it will help:
