Quick Start: Configure server hardware MAC address binding for FCoE server profiles
Prerequisites
In order to configure a SAN so that the server profile volume attachments are visible to the server hardware, you need to perform a binding configuration for each server hardware.
You intend to attach volumes to server hardware using FCoE
You have configured at least one FCoE connection in a server profile.
Procedure
- From the main menu, select Server Profiles.
- In the master pane, select the server profile that specifies the server hardware with an FCoE connection.
- From the View selector, select Connections.
- For each connection that you want to bind to a vfc interface, click the expander to display the details of the connection. Note the MAC address of the connection.
- Use SSH to bind the server hardware MAC address to the vfc interface on the vSAN. See "Adding a FCoE volume in a multi-hop FCoE environment" in the FCOE Cookbook for HP Virtual Connect for information on binding the server hardware MAC addresses to vfc interfaces on the vSAN.
