We have a pair of Nexus 5548's. Not everything is dual-homed. For example, only one of them has a 10-gig link to our main office (along with a 100 meg link elsewhere). I'd like to set up a switch profile between these switches so I can set up vPC's with our UCS fabric interconnects as well as a pair of Fex Modules we have.

As it stands, we have SVI's on each switch, with hsrp between them, so the secondary switch takes over as gateway if the primary fails.

Is it possible (and if so, best practice) after creating a switch profile, and then going into Config-sync mode to create SVI's (eg `interface vlan x`) so that the SVI's are shared between the two switches, rather than creating an SVI on each using hsrp in the event one of the switches fails?

Also, again, can we leave some ports out of the dual switch profile, if not everything is dual-homed?
