Hello,
I'm having some difficult to understand what realy means the output I get from "show licenses usage" regarding VDC-LICENSES on nexus 77K:
Feature Ins Lic Status Expiry Date Comments
Count
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MPLS_PKG No - Unused -
STORAGE-ENT No - Unused -
VDC_LICENSES Yes 4 In use Never -
FCOE-N7K-F248XP Yes 4 Unused Never 4 license(s) missing
ENHANCED_LAYER2_PKG Yes - Unused Never -
TRANSPORT_SERVICES_PKG Yes - Unused Never -
LAN_ENTERPRISE_SERVICES_PKG Yes - Unused Never -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
from the above output I've expected I can create up to 4 non-default VDC + 1 default admin VDC (lic number =4 as see above). I've tried to create the vdc number 6 and works! It i s active and works! So my question is if by default exists already 4+1 VDCs license and after licensing I get 8+1?
The result from "sh license usage vdc-all VDC_LICENSES " is also curious as presented below where I see only vdc_3; 4; 5 and 6 being allocated to the VDC_LICENSE. The VDC 1(Admin) and VDC2 don't need any license?:
Application Vdc
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
vdc_3 mgmt1-dc1
vdc_4 mgmt1-dc1
vdc_5 mgmt1-dc1
vdc_6 mgmt1-dc1

The following vdcs were created:

Switchwide mode is f2e f3
vdc_id vdc_name state mac type lc

5 agg1-dc1 active 00:2a:6a:a3:ef:45 Ethernet f2e f3
6 5 active 00:2a:6a:a3:ef:46 Ethernet f2e f3
I'm using N77-SUP2E on brand new nexus C7706 running 6.2.8.
Many thanks,
best regards,
