UCS FI 6248 to Nexus 5548 San port-channel - not working

Hi all,
I'm sure I am missing something fairly obvious and stupid but I need several sets of eyes and help.
Here is the scenario:
I want to be able to create san port-channels between the FI and Nexus. I don't need to trunk yet as I can't even get the channel to come up.
UCS FI 6248:
Interfaces fc1/31-32
Nexus 5548
interfaces fc2/15-16
FI is in end-host mode and Nexus is running NPIV mode with fport-channel-trunk feature enabled.
I'm going to output the relevants configurations below.
Nexus 5548:

UCS - san-port-channel over vpc

Hi,
I'm hoping someone can help out with this,
I have a setup with 2 Nexus 5548's connected over a vpc peer link and a keepalive, These two nexus switch's have a standard VPC connection to an upstream 6500. this is working fine,
Then there are multiple native FC connections from the 5548's to 6248's. I know there is the option to configure FC port-channel's on the UCS 2.0 but is it possible to put fc interfaces of the nexus 5548 into a san port-channel across a vpc between the the nexus 5548's.
so for example, can i port-channel the following across a vpc or is a san port-channel restricted to ports on the same nexus switch only.
Fabric A fc1/31 & fc1/32 uplinked to -> NX5K-1 Port fc1/31 & NX5K-2 Port fc1/32 (san port-channel 10 over a VPC)
Fabric B fc1/31 & fc1/32 uplinked to -> NX5K-1 Port fc1/32 & NXFK-2 Port fc1/31 (san port-channel 11 over a VPC)
Thanks,
Ray.

This is not possible. Vpc is layer 2 only ethernet port channel. San port channel cannot be built accross vpc

SAN Port-Channel between Nexus 5000 and Brocade 5100

I have a Nexus 5000 running in NPV mode connected to a Brocade 5100 FC switch using two FC ports on a native FC module in the Nexus 5000. I would like to configure these two physical links as one logical link using a SAN Port-Channel/ISL-Trunk. An ISL trunking license is already installed on the Brocade 5100. The Nexus 5000 is running NX-OS 4.2(1), the Brocade 5100 Fabric OS 6.20. Does anybody know if this is a supported configuration? If so, how can this be configured on the Nexus 5000 and the Brocade 5100? Thank you in advance for any comments.
Best regards,
Florian

I tried that and I could see the status light on the ports come on but it still showed not connected.
I configured another switch (a 3560) with the same config and the same layout with the fiber and I got the connection up on it. I just cant seem to get it on the 4506, would it be something with the supervisor? Could it be wanting to use the 10gb port instead of the 1gb ports?

Creating san-port-channel on 6248 using CLI

I can create the san port channel using UCS manager. But I would like to know the syntax using CLI. So far I was able to figure out the following. One thing missing was moving the port channel from the default VSAN(1) to a different VSAN i.e VSAN 10 in my case. I have looked at the CLI guide, but have not found the commands syntax. Appreciate if anyone can post the syntax
### Create Port Channel ###
scope fc-uplink
scope fabric a
create port-channel 1
enable
set name port-channel-1
set adminspeed auto
commit-buffer
end
### Add interfaces to Port Channel ###
scope fc-uplink
scope fabric a
scope port-channel 1
create member-port 1 29
exit
create member-port 1 30
commit-buffer
end

Thanx Wdey. That's exactly what I was looking for. Here is the syntax which works for me.
scope fc-uplink
scope fabric a
create port-channel 1
enable
set name port-channel-1
set adminspeed auto
commit-buffer
end
scope fc-uplink
scope fabric a
enter port-channel 1
enable
enter member-port 1 29
enable
exit
enter member-port 1 30
enable
exit
set adminspeed auto
exit
enter vsan VSAN10 10 10
set fc-zoning disabled
set fcoe-vlan 10
set id 10
enter member-port-channel a 1
exit
localize
exit
end
commit-buffer

SAN Port Channel between 6120 and Brocade

Has anyone setup or know how to setup a SAN Port Channel between 6120s and a Brocade FC switch? I know that it requires UCS firmware 1.4 but I don't know what the Brocade requirements are.

The SAN port channel is Cisco proprietory. You cannot setup SAN port channel with Brocade. Sorry

USB ports does not work

Hi I have problems with not working USB ports. It used to work. I downloaded actual drivers at msi.com for my gaming notebook GX 60 Destroyer and now my USB ports does not work. What should I do?

What driver have you updated?
Try to do an EC firmware reset by removing the battery and the AC adapter then put the battery back with AC adapter attached.
Same questions like Pegasus asked, does all ports not working? which one exactly? What OS are you using?
Have you done any changes to the system? (for example: self-install OS or changing OS)

I plugged in my ipod and now i get the error message: Because a USB device was drawing too much power from your computer, one or more of your USB devices have been disabled" - i have a MAcBook pro and now my USB ports do not work - can anyone help me ???

Sometimes you have to reset the SMC two or three times for it to work, don't know why. I've seen that error message before and 100% of the time it was fixed with an SMC reset. I suppose it's possible that your keyboard or mouse IS drawing too much power, do you have access to another you could try?

Audio output and left USB port is not working!

Hi! I have MacBook Air 13" late 2010, Audio output and left USB port is not working!
What happened?
Part No.: Z0JH000TE RS

If the left USB port doesnt work with an external mouse its seems to be a hardware malfunction of this USB port.
The newest BIOS is already installed?
Have you removed all USB ports from device manager and restarted your notebook?
If you have already tried this, contact an authorized service provider. The guys can try to fix this issue and it should be covered by warranty, if you still have warranty on this notebook. :)

After installation, the mobo LAN port is not working? urgent, help ple

I just installed archlinux on my new i7 860 Asus p7p55d-e Deluxe build, but after the installation the LAN port is not working anymore. Before this, this Lan port works perfect in windows as well as in the arch installation. But after the installation, the led is orange and is blinking slowly, windows complains that the cable is not properly plugged, and even arch installation can't pull DHCP from it also.
Luckily, the mobo has another lan port, so I have to plug the cable out and to the second port, but I couldn't seem to be able to find anyway to enable the first Lan port anymore?
Have you seen anything like this, what possibly is the reason?
Thanks, any help will be appreciated.

heleos, thanks for the reply, the first thing I check is BIOS. There is definitely nothing wrong with that, since I loaded the default one.
It is really strange, it seems no matter what I do, the 1st port which used to work, simple doesn't work, but the second one works fine.
But after some poking around with the "ethtool", it starts to work again. I have no idea what cause the disfunction and what magically heal it again.
Now I am really curious.

T420 USB Ports do not work after installing XP

Hello my office has been using Lenovo's for some time now but we recently purchased a T420 and installed Windows XP SP3 on it. The issue we are having is that the uSB ports do not work. I have tried every driver I can find but still no luck, can anyone help?

hey chris0277,
could you check in Device Manager and see if there is any ? or ! symbol on the USB area.
If there is, i do recommend uninstalling the drivers from it and then visit http://support.lenovo.com and update your unit

My Air port is not working the wifi - just an amber light blinking. What's going on ?

My air port is not working the wifi - just an amber light blinking. What's going on ?

Sorry it is just not enough info to be able to figure it out.
Do a full factory reset and start over.. that is the best way out of the hole.
Using ethernet is far far superior to using wireless at least for setup.
Using iOS device with airport utility is better than using wireless via a Mac with airport utility if you have MBA or MBPr.. but it is still better to buy a usb or thunderbolt to ethernet dongle so you have actual real connection and not a vapourous one.

IMac firewire port is not working

iMac firewire port is not working
Hi everybody, Happy New Year.
I am a 72 years old semi-newbie in video editing, because Iedit only 1 or may be 2 movies a year since 2007 and I have only very little computer knowledge.
I received a new 27” iMac as a birthday gift 14 months ago. About 10 months ago, with help, I successfully use the Migration Assistant to transfer some datas from my old power G4 to the iMac including two Final Cut Express projects. I had one project successfully done; burned to DVD and I save it with Print To Video. Last week, I have my second project done, I burned the sequences into DVD but unable to do a Print To Videodue to the iMac is not communicating with my Sony camcorders DCR VX1000, this is the same camcorder I used on the last job which was working a couple of months ago.As a result, I try to switch the Easy Setup with different Format and different Use; I refresh the Canvas window; I did a Mix down; move the Screen Saver to NEVER as well as the Energy Saver set to NEVER SLEEP. I also trashed the preferences (plist) folders; run the Utility repair, I replaced the firewire cable (4 pines – 9 pines 800), but nothing work. Up to this point, I think that there is no signal from the firewire port to the camcorder because I understand when the sequences is ready, the firewire is connected between the computer and the recording camcorder, the Print to Video is activated, then the word DV- IN should be seen on the recording deck screen. This time, I don’tread such words on the recording screen. Therefore, I think there’s no out going signal from the iMac to the recording camcorder and the iMac is not receiving signal from the recording camcorder. At this point, I try to connect my iMac to the power G4 to see if I can do some data transfer. Follow the procedures, I hook up the data transfer cable between the G4 and the iMac, I can the fireswire icon moving on the G4 screen but no indication on the iMac screen (there should be some indications in the source bar), this shows me the iMac did not recognize the G4 which worked on previous data transfer. It looks to me the firewire port on my iMac is dead. What has gone wrong? Could I accidentally disabled the firewire port by some magic keystroke? (i.e. accidentally fat finger some thing to make it stop working? Oh, by the way, during the playing around, went to the Final Cut tool bar, I click the View >Video Out > Digital Cinema Desktop Preview – Main, the result was a black screen and the esc key was my rescuer - LUCKY LUCKY! Are there any other trouble-shooting techniques to apply before bringing to shop? Please help!
Sorry for such a long statement, forgive me for unable to make it shorter. Thank you for your patience. Thanks to all the folks in this board for being so helpful.
p.s.

Not sounding good.
If the system Profiler does not see it then there is a basic communication problem between camera and the Mac.
I'm thinking the Firewire port is the culprit as some 800 ports were faulty.
I'd suggest taking the Mac, cable and camera to your nearest Authorized Apple Service Centre and get them to diagnose the issue. eg. let them try to connect the two devices.
Right (control)click the Sequence icon in the Browser and select Item Properties, do the same for a clip.
You can also post screen shots for the Properties.

Time Capsule Internet WAN port is not working, what can I do to set it up?

When I plug the ethernet cable from my router to my Time Capsule it should turn on a green light in the back of the TC, but this light is not turning it on anymore, and this port is not working, how can I set it up?
I want to create a wireless network with the TC, but if this port (Ethernet WAN port) doesn't work, I can't, or can I? How?
Then I want to use my 2 Airport Express to use the network that I want to create.
I hope you can help me, thanks a lot.

what model is the TC? A1xxx from the base please.
How old and is the front LED otherwise showing it is operating OK?
What is the network setup..? Is the TC bridged or router.. or is it in Join wireless network mode now..
If the later.. the ethernet ports are turned off.. you need to do a factory reset of the TC.
Factory reset.. Hold in reset button.. THEN power on the TC.. keep holding in reset for about 10sec until the front LED flashes rapidly.. there is a good chance the ethernet will work now.
