1/10Gbps Virtual Connect Fibre/Ethernet Modules
Binu has a question on early versions of Virtual Connect modules:
******************
My c7000 enclosures have 1/10Gbps Virtual Connect Fibre/Ethernet Modules in Interconnect Bay 1 and Bay 2
Server installed are
BL 465 c with Two(2) embedded NC370i Multifunction Gigabit Ethernet Server Adapters
BL 870 with Four (4) Embedded Standard Gigabit NICs
Question:
Do we get 4 Virtual NICs per LOM (if the LOM is Multifunction Gigabit Ethernet Server Adapters) as we get using Flex 10 modules (where 2 LOMs becomes 8 Virtual NICs ,provided LOM is Multifunction Gigabit Ethernet)
What would be the behavior if the LOM is Standard Gigabit NICs.
*****************
From Dale:
****************
No. You have 2 things working against you, one on the server side and the 2nd on the interconnect side. The embedded NC370i Multifunction GbE LOM's do not have the capability to be split into 4 FlexNIC's per LOM (NC5xx adapters have this functionality) and the HP 1/10Gb-F Virtual Connect Ethernet Module does not have the technology built in to understand FlexNIC or FlexFabric CNA PCI-e functions.
This might help.
