Smartlink Behaviour - FlexFabric/BL460c G7 LOM

[chuckk281]

Question from John on the capabilities of the SmartLink function on Virtual Connect.

**************

Is there a site/resources I can be directed to that details how, on an uplink failure, Smartlink deals with PF2(b function) on a Flexnic that is cabled for FC connectivity through a FlexFabric module?

Under VC 3.60+, and recent Server SPP releases, does Smartlink have the ability to shut down vNic downlinks or does the whole entire port be shut down, including any associated FC configurations and traffic

Standard BL460CG7 in use with no Mezz cards

Input from Vincent:

SmartLink has the ability to shut down FlexNICs individually, BUT the following CA may apply:

Any other comments or suggestions?
