We currently have two HP 1/10Gb VC-Enet Modules in each chassie. One c7000 has the FC module in slot 3 and 4. I'm buying two more FC's for the other chassie and adding a dual port nic mezz card to my blades.
I have two HP 1/10Gb VC-Enet Modules in hand. Do I need to add them to slots 5 and 6 on one c7000 and purchase two more or can I add one to slot 5 in both chassies and get the functionality of the mezz nic card?
Solved! Go to Solution.

That's what I thought but needed to make sure I could run the three EtherConnects with out issues.

Re: Adding a 1/10Gb VC-Enet Module to an existing c7000
I should say that this is not a recommended configuration.
With a module in only Bay 5 (and not Bay 6), as has already been pointed out, you will only be able to use 1 NIC port from your MEZZ card.
In addition, it makes it difficult to set up any kind of NIC Teaming, which will of course affect your redundancy in the event that the VC module in bay 5 dies.
Dave.

Re: Adding a 1/10Gb VC-Enet Module to an existing c7000
I thought it was a bonus to have all NICs accessable to all the EtherConnects but not mandatory. The mezz card would be assigned to slots 5 and 6 not needing to be able to route through slots 1 and 2.
