vNICs for iSCSI on Emulex Virtual Fabric Adapter

TheENOSvNICfeatureworkswithstandardnetworkapplicationslikeiSCSIas

previouslydescribed.However,theEmulexVirtualFabricAdapterforLenovo

FlexSystemexpectsiSCSItraffictooccuronlyonasinglevNICpipe.Whenusing

theEmulexAdapter2,onlyvNICpipe2mayparticipateiniSCSI.

Toconfigure

theswitchforthissolution,iSCSItrafficshouldbeplacedinitsown

vNICgroup,comprisedoftheexternaluplinkportleadingtotheiSCSItarget,and

therelated<port>.2vNICpipesconnectedtotheparticipatingservers.For

example:

1. EnablethevNICfeatureontheswitch.

2. Configurethevirtualpipes

fortheiSCSIvNICsattachedtoeachinternalport:

Note: vNICsarenotsupportedsimultaneouslyonthesameswitchportsas

VMready.

3. AddportsandvirtualpipestoavNICgroup.
