Hi
Just received hardware I am prepping. I got vPC peerlink up and uplinked to VSS. We configured straight-through FEX and it is not connecting.
Below is the output of the show fex detail command:

I am thinking software incompatability.
Any ideas on how to resolve this.
Urgent help
Many thanks,
Mohammed

Your Nexus 5000 image version (4.1.3) needs to be upgraded to a 4.2 version so the 2232 can work with it.

When you connect your FEX, it first downloads the image from the parent switch (like a LAP from a WLC), then it reboots. Is it stuck in this phase for a long time?

Hi Lucien,
I have similar issue with N2K-C2348UPQ4F,
First time we connected to N7K with 7.3.(2)D1(1) for 2 weeks,
after that we disconnect from N7K and connect to N5K-C5648Q with 7.1(4)N1(1) but N2K does't came up ,
Can you advise what should we do ?
Below are step what we face:
once we connect N2K to N5K it's image download
