Merging together two different VSANs

Hi all.
I need to migrate an actual fabric based on Cisco 9124 and 9134, to a brand new Cisco Director 9506. Actually I have two fabric (fabric 1 and 2) which are not currently merging together. VSAN are not in use in the actual scenario.
I would like to move to a VSAN topology. In order to proceed with migration from actual fabric, my idea would be to create two separate VSANs on the 9506 (VSAN 10 and VSAN20). Then I could merge fabric 1 with VSAN 10 and fabric2 witrh VSAN20. Unfortunately I can't use IVR, then the idea would be to disable trunking on ISLs so I could migrate zones to new directors but maintaining the separation between fabric 1 and 2 (from actual physical separation to new logical one). I am aware merging different VSANs is discouraged, but it is documented by Cisco ("In some cases, you may need to merge traffic from different port VSANs across a non-trunking ISL. If so, disable the trunking protocol. "). Idea would be maintain the ISL for the time required to migrate all the gears (servers and disk arrays) to the new directors. My question then: have you got any experiences or suggestions ? Could I proceed with this unusual merge hoping not encounter any outages ? Many thanks !

Let me get this straight, today you have 2 physical switches each is a separate fabric, they do not talk to eachother.  You are moving to a single 9506 director.  The current switches do not use VSAN's, but you are asking if you can create VSAN 10 and 20 on the director.
Yes, this is fine.  You should create VSAN 10 and 20 on the director.  Connect fabric 1 to VSAN 10.  You should use an E-port and disable trunking protocol like you suggested.  You can do the same with fabric 2 and VSAN 20.  Then copy over all the zones and move the stuff over one port at a time if you like.
There is no issue with what you are discussing.  Keep in mind normal fabric "rules" apply, such as timers matching, and other parameters to avoid an isolation. Good luck!

  • How to merge to frequencies together and play it? I have a program that outputs two numbers everytime and those numbers in Hz. I want to merge those two different frequencies and play the sound.

    Hi there
    I have a program that reads from a table done in excel and finds two numbers from the table(they're different all the time). Those numbers are represented in Hz. What I want now is how to merge those two numbers as frequencies and output them and hear them from the speaker as audio. I also have the part of hearing them done but I can't figure out a way to have it connected so that it doesn't matter which numbers come up, it'll update it accordinaly. I appreciate any helpers.
    Thanks a lot

    Then I'm not sure what you're doing, or what your definition of "add" is. Here is the example I posted, with Signal 1 at 250 Hz and Signal 2 at 500 Hz:

  • How do I edit together two different camera angles in iMovie '11?

    I've just started using iMovie '11 to put together a little concert footage of my band. I've got two videos of the same concert from two different angles. One is in front of the band and one is next to the drums. Obviously, the video next to the drums has louder audio. Is there a way I can edit these to videos together with iMovie '11 and mix together the audio as well?

    If you do a lot of this you may want to try Final Cut Pro X. However, it is quite possible in iMovie.  In FCP X, there are tools for automatically aligning the clips from the various cameras and audio sources, and it is fairly straightforward to then cut between cameras as part of a compound clip.
    Here is how I did it in iMovie.
    I recently did this for a video of my niece's senior voice recital. (Video is below)
    The key is to use the Cutaway feature of  iMovie. If you are not familiar with Cutaway, here is a good tutorial from Ken Stone.
    I had three audio possibilities. A CD recording, the side camera audio track, and the back camera audio track. I decided to use the side camera audio track with heavy use of muted cutaways from the back camera. So I used the side camera as my base clips, and used the back camera as the cutaway clips. I decided the CD recording had too much noise even after fixing in Audacity. And the back camera audio track was OK but had too much coughing and noise.
    Here are tips for getting it lined up perfectly.
    1) In iMovie/Preferences make sure that you check "Display Time as hh:mm:ss:frames" so you can edit to the frame level. (Also, select "Show Advanced Tools so you get the Cutaway feature)
    2) In the iMovie Project View, set the thumbnail slider to 1/2 second so you have a great deal of control.
    3) Initially, leave the volume at 100% on the Cutaway track, so that both tracks are playing. You can hear when they are off.
    4) Click the "Waveforms" button in the Project view, so you get a visual cue of how to line up the tracks.
    5) Between the audible cues and the visual cues, you can nudge the cutaway back and forth one frame at a time by dragging until you have it perfect.
    6) When it is lined up to your satisfaction, set the volume slider of the Cutaway track to zero, and turn off the waveforms. You can also move the thumbnail slider back to 5 seconds or so.
    7) For some of the fine work, I switched to the "single row timeline view". This slows you down a bit, but lets you see the waveforms more clearly.
    8) I made heavy use of the iMovie Comment Marker feature. I watched the whole base video/audio track and inserted comment markers at the points where I wanted the Cutaway to begin and end. For example, a comment might say "Insert Cutaway 1". I would usually time the cutaway so it started at a distinct audio event, such as when the piano start. This comment marker made it easy to drag my cutaway to a point that was approximately correct.
    9) If you need to do a lot of cutaways, I find that it helps to use the SPLIT CLIP command in your project. This way you can have a single cutaway per clip, and this makes it easier to manage and is less processor and memory intensive for iMovie. I would use the comments to mark the entry and exit points of the cutaway as described above. I would then select that portion of the clip that included these markers plus a little more, so that a yellow border is around the selection. Then right-click/SPLIT CLIP (or CLIP/SPLIT CLIP in the top menu). This does not physically splt the clip within the Event. It only virtually splits the clip in the project.

  • 'Howto' merge (consolidate) two different BW-Systems in one?

    Hi,
    actual we have two different BW System (BW-FI/CO and BW-CRM - both Version 3.5) which are installed on an own systems (historic grown).
    Now we want reduce our administration and hardware costs and our intention is to merge (consolidate) our two BW-Systems in one - using standard SAP transport method.
    Does anyone have any experience with merge of two and more BW Systems in one?
    Does anyone have a 'Howto Paper' about this topic?
    Thanks in advance,
    Ismet

    Hi Arun,
    thx a lot for your quick answer. My question was more 'merge/consolidate' of two BW-Systems as a 'System Copy'. I am trying to give you more information about our procedure:
    - we have two different BW-Systems - BW-System A and BW-System B
    - both BW-System have same Version and Support Package
    - we want to overtake ALL BW-Objects (InfoProvider, InfoObjects, Variables, etc......) from System B into System A
    - for this procedure we want use STMS (SAP Standard)
    - in second step we plan to transfer physical data from System B in to System A with Data Mart procedure (generate Export-Datsource in System B)
    Do you have (or anybody) any experience about this procedure?
    Thanks a lot and Best Regards.

  • Merging(Align) two different point cloud data in Kinect Fusion

    Hi,
      I am now working in kinect fusion point cloud align from two different sensors.  Here is the code,
       bool success = volume.AlignPointClouds(sensor1PointCloud, sensor2PointCloud, 10, fusionColorFrame, out alignmentEnergy, ref currentMatrix);
    How to get the merged(Aligned) point cloud data.
    The above function (fusionColorFrame)  returns only integer data....Pls help me If any body know....
    Thanks in Advance.
    kirubha

    The api doesn't return a point cloud. The intent of the volume api is to integrate point cloud data into the internal reconstruction of Fusion. By calling the api, it will provide a Matrix that you can then multiply the points by to align the two.
    If the intent is to get a merged point cloud, then you might want to look into a point cloud library PCL.

  • How do you merge two different users on one computer?

    I created a user account on my computer, then when I used Migration Assistant to transfer some of the files off my old computer onto my new MacBook Air it transferred them into a new user account.  How do I merge the two different users? They are both me.

    You can't "merge" users, you have to transfer the files using intermediate steps to deal with Permissions issues.
    You found out first hand that you should use Setup Assistant, rather than Migration Assistant to perform the action that is now causing trouble, and time.
    1) Log in to the A account.
    2) Locate all the files you want to move. Move them to /Users/A/Public. Note: Don't move any System-created top-level folders, like Documents, Pictures, Music, Movies, etc. Just move their contents.
    3) Log in to the B account.
    4) Navigate with Finder to /Users/A/Public. Drag the files to the Desktop. This will make new copies of them that will have the correct permissions for User B.
    5) Put the new copies of the files away in the appropriate places in B's home folder.
    6) Delete the A user account if it is no longer needed.
    Doing it this way will ensure that there are no permissions headaches with the files after they are moved.
    Also, make sure that you BACK UP all of your data before starting.

  • Two different apple IDs/two different iClouds - help! I had a Yahoo e-mail when I bought my iPod and registered it/set up my iTunes acct with it. Gmail acct w/ my iPad due to virus, now 2 apple ids and 2 iclouds, can I merge them somehow?

    When I set up my iPod I had a Yahoo email account, and I set up my iTunes acct. with it. It got hacked, viral, and I closed it. When I got my iPad2, I had a gmail account, and set it up w/ that email account. As a result, I was given a different apple id - stupid of me. This also resulted in me getting a different iCloud. When I got my iPhone, I used my iPod account (linked to a newly set up Yahoo account), because I wanted all of my iTunes song on my phone. So now I have two apple ID's and two iClouds, and my phone and my iPad are on separate iClouds. I hate it, and I don't know if I can somehow merge the two. I want to buy additional iCloud storage, but only if I can do so on ONE account that is for both devices. Does anyone know if/how I can accomplish this?  Thanks so much.

  • Hi, when I upload music into itunes from a cd it sometimes appears in itunes as two different albums and split up the music in 2 or even three albums....how can i merge these albums...this is particularly true when one album may have different composers?

    Hi, when I upload music into itunes from a cd it sometimes appears in itunes as two different albums and split up the music in 2 or even three albums....how can i merge these albums...this is particularly true when one album may have different composers?

    Generally setting a common Album title and Album Artist will fix things.
    For compilations that aren't, select all tracks, Get Info, and on the option tab set Part of a Compilation to No. If it already says No tick the box alongside, then click OK.

    You cannot merge accounts.

  • How do I get all the songs from an album to show in the album view?  Currently, if an album lists the artist plus a guest artist, those are shown separately and appear to be two different albums on my iPod.  How do I get all the songs on that album togeth

    How do I get all the songs from an album to show in the album view?  Currently, if an album lists the artist plus a guest artist, those are shown separately and appear to be two different albums on my iPod.  How do I get all the songs on that album together on my iPod?  If the album is a collaboration wtih many artists, each sond may appear as a separate album.

    I used to have this problem.
    First, you need to go back on iTunes
    you need to go to each of the songs that are having this problem
    Click the album so all the songs drop down
    Right click the songs that have this problem
    Click ' Get info '
    Click the tab that says " info '
    The box that says ' album artist ' should probably be empty (correct me if I'm wrong)
    Click it and type the artist of the entire album, NOT the songs guest artist
    as such,
    ARTIST
    JAY-Z Feat. Justin Timberlake
    ALBUM ARTIST
    JAY-Z
    These should be separate for each artist
    If you write the same album artists for each song by that artist, all the songs should be on 1 album

  • Two different projects spliced together over each other some how?

    Greetings everyone,
    I thought forum users might be interested in this one. I don't use the forum often so I don't know the history but has anybody ever had two different projects spliced together over each other some how? For example, I was tweaking a project and left it alone for several months. I came back today to work on it and clips from other projects were in it some how. Also the audio from the new clips were in the new project and overriding the existing project. Does anybody know how to restore the two and make them separate them without losing any info. from either one? The thing's a mess. I had 1 video track w/ some subtitles, a voice over, and some music in the background. Now it has two video clips, and two of everything else. It's crazy. I don't think it's a virus or anything. Nothing else on my machine is acting strange. I hope nobody else has experienced this yet can help.
    Peace

    If you have a backup external drive and Time Machine, I would suggest the following:
    Locate this specific clip in your Finder. Highlight it and rename it "old", or something similar.
    Launch Time Machine.
    Go back to a date in time when this clip was as you properly edited it.
    Again, make sure Finder is still open and highlight the clip.
    Click "restore" in Time Machine.
    Open iMovie and you will see your project as you had it all those months ago.
    This works for me when I have an iMovie project behaving badly.
    iMovie is a great application: but just like us, it has good days and bad days.

    Can I blend together two iPhoto libraries? I have a library on another MAC and would love to move it to my laptop merging with the existing iPhoto. How I can do that? I just afraid to overwrite the original library.
    You need iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - to merge iPhoto libraries
    I recommend merging both libraries into a new library so if some problem occurs you do not mess up either original library - this of course requires adequate disk space for all three libraries
