Stacking with Cisco Blade Switches

Hi,
We have a HP p-class Blade System with two Cisco Gigabit Ethernet Switch Modules (Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)SE) for every enclosure. My question is how I can stack the two blade switches (in the same enclosure) so that every HP blade server to be connected with the two switches in the active/standby state? In other words, can and how I make a port-channel which includes ports from the two switches?
Unfortunately I couldn't found any documentation for the purpose.

Hi,
With the CGESM switches you have you cannot use 802.3ad teaming against the two blade switches. This is possible with the Cisco 3120 blade switches for HP c-class.
Now, in your case, you can use standard Active/Standby NIC teaming, where the active NIC of each server connects to one switch and the standby NIC connects to the other switch. Should a blade switch completely fail, all of the servers with their active NIC connected to the failed switch should see the link go down and switch over to the standby NIC on the second switch. This should work very well.
One problem that can happen however is that the blade switch itself does not completely fail. Instead maybe the blade switch uplink fails, or the upstream switch it is connected to fails. In this situation the server NIC does not experience a failure and continues to send traffic to the blade switch that does not have anywhere to send the traffic, a black hole. This is perhaps the problem you are seeing?
The fortunate thing is that Cisco has a solution to this problem called Trunk Failover with Link State Tracking. What this allows you to do is to tell the blade switch that if it experiences a failure on its uplinks that it should also bring down the links to the servers as well. This will cause the servers to see a failure on their active NIC and perform a switchover to the second blade switch.
I looked up your switch and found that your 12.2(25)SE1 code does not support this feature. You will need to upgrade to 12.2(25)SEE4 and you will be able to configure this on your switches.
Here is a link to see how this configuration works:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/blades/3020/software/release/12.2_25_sef1/configuration/guide/swethchl.html#wp1346176
Hope this helps.
If so please rate my posts.
Thanks,
Brad

  • Cisco Blade Switch

    I am having problems with configuring speed on uplink ports on cisco blade switches (Cisco Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module for HP BladeSystem p-Class). I can configure fixed speed on uplink ports (Gi0/19-22) but after reload I am getting message that this command was rejected:
    speed 1000
    ^
    % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
    and then auto-1000 speed is specified.I need fixed speeds on those ports.What is strange that access ports (Gi0/1-18) dont have this problems.I excluded firmare problem,vlan,vtp negotation. The problem is still recouring even if I configure this ports only with speed comand and nothing more. Could someone give me some clues? Thanks

    Checked that olso,ports are 10/100/1000/auto Base-TX with half/full/auto duplex, so it seems that it is not an issue. I am getting this problem after this communicate:

  • Connecting 2 3750 Switches in Stack with 2 2960 switches in full Mesh

    Hi Friends,
               I have attached a pics  which DC design of one of our customer , as network engineer i have design this , so i am responsible for implementing it, now request you all to kindly guide me what would be technical problem i have to face in achieving this and how can i over come .Please be in detail. Waiting for your response .
    Regards
    Amit Kulshrestha

    I have attached modified diagram , please suggest.
    The major issue I see is that you have not mentioned whether the 2960's are stacked? For the design to work, they need to be stacked because you cannot create port-channels between them and the Core switches unless then 2960's are stacked.
     ==> You are right , surely 2960 Switch need to be in stack form.
    Personally I would look at more powerful switches than the 2960's, something along the lines of the 3750x range or probably now the 3850's.
    ==> This is constrain of customer, not our responsibility.
    The second issue I see is that your servers are connected to the WAN switches. Is there a reason for this? Usually they would be connected to the core switches.
    ==> For this If 1 separate 2960 series switch can be used ?.
    The final point is that you only have single connections from each of your WAN connections which begs the question as to the purpose of having two WAN switches?
    ==> Customer is having 1900 series of router , only two ports one used for WAN and other used for LAN.
    The objective of having two switches is to provide redundancy/resiliency. If you have only one connection from each WAN then why do you need two switches as there is no redundancy?
    ==> Customer has agreed to have manual change at the time of failure.

  • IPad and iPhone Intermittent WiFi with Cisco

    I have around 35 iPhones and iPads that are at best intermittent with our internal wireless network. I have been working with Cisco for two days and they are unable to resolve the issue. The WiFi works perfectly with our notebooks so it is definetly narrowed down to the Apple hardware needing a special configuration other than the ones we have tried.
    I am currently using a Cisco WLC2106 controller with 1142N access points. The dhcp is working. I can forget the network or turn off the WiFi and back on and get an assigned address. At first it took several minutes to populate but Cisco helped me resolve that first problem. The iPhones and iPads will get the private IP but will not allow it to go out on the Internet. I get a good association (WiFi indicator in top-left is full strength.) At times one iPad will connect and another will stop working. For example: yesterday I had my iPad, laptop, and iPhone while I was working with Cisco. All three were connected to the WiFi network with seperate IP's. The laptop never stopped working. My iPhone worked for a few minutes and then I left the office with my phone for about 20 miinutes. When I returned the iPad worked but my iPhone did not, even after making sure the iPhone reconnected and gave it more than 10 minutes and a reboot. I have configured 1 iPad1, 2 iPad2's, and four iPhone 4's. They are all intermittent and I have yet to figure out any formula for why one might work while the others stop. I have done resets on them, statically assigned ip's, and changed DNS settings. Again, the laptop never missed a beat while the iPads just come and go. The way I have been testing is through using a website in Safari on the iPad or iPhone to check the external IP to make sure it is our ISP and not using ATT 3G. I also check the App Store which also fails on WiFi. The WiFi works fine at home with my linksys router. I have tried changing the WiFi encryption from WPA2 to WEP and even disabled the security for testing. Even with no encryption the same result prevails. Maybe one out of five tries to connect works and it alternates between devices. If I didn't know any better I would think it was an IP conflict or a maximum connection limit somewhere.
    Here is the general config:
    Cisco based wireless using no encryption. I will eventaully need to go WPA2 but for troubleshooting I have tried it as open. I am not broadcasting SSID. I CAN connect to WiFi network and receive IP, Gateway, DNS, and Domain Name consistently. I CANNOT access the Internet consistently. This is a business network with Cisco Catalyst Switches, Routers, and Firewalls. Again, the laptops that connect using WiFi are working as intended,
    Does Apple have publicly accessible engineers for these situations? I have left the case open with Cisco in order to provide as much information as possible to Apple.
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Internally I am not blocking any traffic. I have over 100 other Windows devices, cameras and printers on this single subnet. I'm not using any other Apple hardware at this time so I'm not sure what the Bonjour will do for me that TCP/IP can't do. I am also not using Bonjour at either of the homes I have done other testing on.
    One more tidbit. One of our goals is to use FaceTime between the iPads. I have successfully connected a few times between the devices but it's almost every time I connect two iPads to FaceTime they will not connect again. Without changing anything else on the WiFi or the Firewall I can come back the next day, reset the iPads, obtain Internet access and the FaceTime will work. Thanks gyrhead!

  • Solarwinds Netflow products what will work with a 3850-switch

    Does anybody know….what Solar winds product will do Net Flow with Cisco 3850-switches? I know Net Flow Configurator will not work….but what about Net Flow Real-time for a Cisco 3850 switch?

    For a lot of people, it is not neccessary. I used to ask myself that question until I came across a need for things that iLife and the Finder would not do.
    Toast is a great program with a lot of features that just are not standard on a Mac.
    You can make music DVDs. You can span a HD backup over multiple disks. You can make hybrid PC/Mac disks. It has DVD compression tools to fit a 8.5GB dual-layer DVD onto a single layer 4.7GB DVD.It suppoprts OGG and FLAC audio formats. You can turn your iMovie and iDVD projects into DivX disks.
    It also has lots of nice tools to clean up audio that is imported from a noisy source - like vinyl.
    It is all in all a very useful program, but not unless you need any of those features of course.

  • Multiple context on Cisco Content Switching

    Hi Everyone
    I had new case with Cisco Content Switching design. The current network has two Cisco Content Module (CSM) and each of them response for switching content on one Vlan.
    Now i want to reconfigure it, to meet the redundancy requirement. But i don't know Cisco Content Module have same idea of design with ACE on Route Mode.
    I want configure CSM with two or more vlan pair in routed mode and it can HA between each other.
    Thanks
    Phai La Quy

    Hi Phai,
    Yes you can configure CSM in routed mode with clients in one VLAN and server in another. Pasting the link for your reference. You can find more in routing and switching guide.

  • How to count/determine downtime of Cisco 6500 switch?

    Hello,
    I work with cisco 6500 switches. now we need to evaluate the down time of all switces. now we using cacti to query system information to switches using SNMP, but some times cacti didnt get the data because of high cpu in switch so the switch stop di SNMP service. because of that, the data in Cacti not valid to determine our switch Downtime.
    Is there any tools or ather way to monitor Cisco switch downtime??
    Thanks a lot. 

    just like a reminding system. it can be send an email or some message.
    EEM can be configured to send someone an email when some kind of "event" is triggered, such as an uplink goes DOWN/UP.  
    However, the chassis can't send an email if it's down but can be configured to send out an email when the supervisor card boots up.  

  • Challenge: Spanning Tree Control Between 2 links from Switch DELL M6220 to 2 links towards 2 switches CISCO 3750 connected with an stack (behavior like one switch for redundancy)

    Hello,
    I have an Spanning tree problem when i conect  2 links from Switch DELL M6220 (there are blades to virtual machines too) to 2 links towards 2 switches CISCO 3750 connected with an stack (behavior  like one switch  for redundancy, with one IP of management)
    In dell virtual machine is Spanning tree rapid stp, and in 3750 is Spanning tree mode pvst, cisco says that this is not important, only is longer time to create the tree.
     I dont know but do you like this solutions i want to try on sunday?:
     Could Spanning tree needs to work to send one native vlan to negociate the bdpus? switchport trunk native vlan 250
    Is it better to put spanning-tree guard root in both 3750 in the ports to mitigate DELL to be root in Spanning Tree?
    Is it better to put spanning- tree port-priority in the ports of Swicht Dell?
    ¿could you help me to control the root? ¿Do you think its better another solution? thanks!

    Asa,

    Signal = 4, Vector = 0x700
    Thank you very much for the output.  They were very helpful.
    Here's the story, the blade has been crashing because of the error "Signal = 4".  I have never seen something like this so the only thing I can tell you is that this is a code that simply means "Illegal Opcode Exception".  It could mean that you are running an old IOS and you're hitting a bug.
    You can contact Cisco TAC and get them to analyze the crashinfo files.  You can put this thread into the TAC Case so you don't need to repeat your story all over again.

  • Is it possible to get logs from a 3850 Cisco member switch in a stack?

    %STACKMGR-1-STACK_LINK_CHANGE: MEMBER: 4 stack-mgr:  Stack port 2 on switch 4 is down
    %STACKMGR-1-STACK_LINK_CHANGE: STANDBY:2 stack-mgr:  Stack port 1 on switch 2 is down  (OC-SWTCH)
    %STACKMGR-6-SWITCH_REMOVED: STANDBY:2 stack-mgr:  Switch 3 has been removed from the stack.
    I recieved errors on a 3850 switch 3 in my stack, it's removed from my stack and after 5 minutes it comes back up. I want to know what the switch was doing for those 5 minutes, is it possible to get the log files for only switch 3? Telneting to the switch stack or connecting a console cable directly to switch 3 only gives me the logs for master switch logs. Ideally when a switch reconnects to a stack, the master switch should ask the joining switch for it's logs, and merge them into it's own logs so it has a record of the switch did when it wasn't communitating.

    In my company, we are using Cisco IP Phones 7945G (with 2 gigabit network ports) and Cisco 3560X-48P (1GB ports) switches for our users.
    Our client computers are running on Windows 7 SP1 (64bit - Enterprise edition) and are connected behind the IP Phone. We use a "Boradcom
    Xtreme Gigabit" onboard network card on the computers. All ports (on the switch site and IP Phone side) and on the network card of the computer are configured in "auto negotiation". Duplex and speed are set to "auto".
    We tried now to deploy a new engineering software and we are facing a very strange problem. This means that the engineer software fails to download some files from the server. We are using a flat network, all the servers and computers are on the same network segment with no firewall inbetween.
    The firewall and Anti-virus on the computers are configured to allow all incoming/outing connections.
    To troubleshoot, I tried to change all the network cables but I still get same result --> download fails.
    I connected the client computer directly to the Cisco 3560X switch, without the IP Phone and I get the same result.
    I installed a separate network card from INTEL (Intel PRO1000 PT) but I get the same result.
    As last test, I have connected to same client computer directly to a Cisco 2960-8TC switch (100Mbit; auto negotiate) and here is working fine. The software successfully downloads all the files from the server.
    If I connect the computer behind the Cisco 7945 IP Phone, set the speed and duplex of the PC-Port on the Cisco IP Phone 7945G to "100MBit/full duplex" is also working fine.
    Is there any know issue with Windows7 and Gigabit network connections?
    Do I need to set any Registry key on my Windows 7?
    The firmware version of my Cisco 3560X-48P switch is 12.2(53)SE2; do I need to update it?
    The firmware version of the IP Phone 7945G is 9.2.1.
    Thanks in advanced for your help.

    Hello, Thanks for your answers. First of all, I have updated the firmware of my Cisco Catalyst 3560X-48P switch to the version 12.2(55)SE5. Unfortunately, this did not solve my problem. As second step, I ran an TDR test on my 3560X switch but I do not get any result. The "Pair status" always says "not completed". Even if I wait for 5 minutes, the status remains at "Not completed". Am I doing something wrong ? To do the TDR test, I use the commande "test cable-diagnostics tdr interface gigabitEthernet 0/XY". For your information, the port gigabitEthernet 0/XY is in a "Connected" status when I run the "show int status" command. Jeff, I think there is no issue on the server side, because if I connect my workstation on a 100MB switch (example Cisco Catalyst 2960-8TC-L) the application works absolutely fine. Also, if I run the application locally on the server, it works fine. As next step, I will connect the workstation directly on our backbone switch and try the same test. Is there perhaps any Registry key in our Windows7 which could cause this trouble? If you have any other ideas or options, please let me know. Thanks a lot, Marc Hoffmann

    Hi,
     >>I gave log on as a service right to this account in Default Domain Controllers Policy but unfortunately it was not enough
    Based on your description, we can try to grant this account Allow log on locally
    user right in the default domain controller policy to see if it helps.
    The policy setting is:
    Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\User Rights Assignment\Allow log on locally
    Allow log on locally

  • "Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 for HP" Best Practices

    Hi all,
    Here we use this blade switch cluster for the Data Center server farm. Here we noticed some network traffic delay. when I monitor the up link I can see there is not much traffic in the link. So doubt about the traffic delay. If anyone can help me on this it would be great...
    Thanks in Progress.....
    Chandana

    Here in the "blade switch for HP" a request processing application is running in a server. when we use the same type server stand alone with a separate switch it processes 80,000 requests per 4 hours. But when this blade server in the blade switch it only processes near 6,000 requests per 4 hours.
    That what I mean like "Network delay"...
    That is what I cannot understand.
    I have attached the current configuration of the blade switch so you can go through it.
    Is there any best practices specific to that type of blade switch that should enable?
    Thanks for your help
    regards
    Chandana

  • Does Supervisor Engine 6L-E compatible with Cisco Ws-C4506 Non-E switch?

    Does Supervisor Engine 6L-E compatible with Cisco Ws-C4506 Non-E switch?

    Yes, it is compatible with non-e chassis.
    see below:
    The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Supervisor Engine 6L-E is also compatible with classic Cisco Catalyst 4500 line cards, chassis (3-, 6-, and 7-slot), and power supplies, providing full investment protection.

  • Two forwarding root ports on cisco 3120 blade switch.

    Hi,
    <br />
    <br />After upgrading blade switch 3120 to 12.2(46)SE, I could see two root ports in which both are forwarding.
    <br />
    <br />Te1/0/1 Root FWD 2000 128.27 P2p
    <br />Te2/0/1 Root FWD 2000 128.81 P2p
    <br />
    <br />Where as STP should've kept the other root port as blocked state and named it has Alternate port.
    <br />Also started seeing Mac flap messages.
    <br />As soon as IOS was downgraded to 12.2(40)EX3, Problem was solved, even messages were stoped.
    <br />Seems to be bug, but couldn't get any.
    <br />

    Hi Rob,
    I have faced this issue with many enclosures so far and the only option left here is, you need to reboot the enclosure.
    This is an issue with the IOS code and you have to open a case with HP to get the appropriate IOS ver. Probably 15.0 code has this issue resolved and I haven't seen this issue further after the Upgrade.
    Thanks,
    Sagar
