n7k shared interface allocation

[gbonill]

After update to NX-OS 6.0(1), we can't seem to get shared interface allocation to work.
Has anyone had success with the "allocate shared interface" command?

The error message says a vdc must be configured for fcoe sharing.  How do you do that?

switch(config-vdc)# vdc fcoe type storage
switch(config-vdc)# allocate shared interface e3/3-8
Ports that share the port group of the interfaces you have specified will be affected as
well. Continue (y/n)? [yes] yes
ERROR: Ports being shared must belong to a vdc that has been configured for fcoe sharing

Hello,

i've got the same problem with NX-OS 5.2(1).

Best regards

I managed to fix this by adding "from vdcs " to the end of the allocate fcoe-vlan-range command.

switch(config-vdc)# allocate fcoe-van-range 10 from vdcs switch

Hope this helps you, too.
