Enabling FCoE on a Nexus swich is pretty simple:<\/p>\n
feature fcoe<\/pre>\nWhat’s not all that well documented is that uses a temporary 120 day license. After the 120 days the switch disables FCoE. That is a very bad thing, especially when the switch is providing the storage backbone for a vSphere cluster running around 200VMs.<\/p>\n
To properly license FCoE a license number must be registered on Cisco’s website. This generates a license file that gets uploaded to the switch.\u00a0http:\/\/www.cisco.com\/en\/US\/docs\/switches\/datacenter\/sw\/nx-os\/licensing\/guide\/Cisco_NX-OS_Licensing_Guide_chapter1.html#task_24958<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
