[#1]

Hi

We are configurating one Flexpod solution.
UCS 6296UP with Fas8020 Ontap 8.3  Direct Attached Storage for NFS

This is the information found

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/servers-unified-computing/ucs-6100-series-fabric-interconnects/whitepaper_c11-702584.html

We are create the "appliance ports" but this are in error.

 Error: ENM source pinning failed

Thanks

It's going to be hard to troubleshoot with out many details on the configuration. To start with, make sure that the VLAN you have configured on the Appliance port exsits in both the LAN Cloud and Appliance sections.

Hi,

This blog post describes nicely solving the issue, which quite likely is due to VLAN discrepancies:

I am test with this configuration but the ports are in fail.
is it necesary some special parameters in NetApp (Ontap:8.3)?

I detec what when I configure with "Set Ethernet Swiching Mode" the port are up but in normal mode "End-Host Mode"they are in fail.

There shouldn't be any special configuration you'll need on the NetApp side. 

Did you test the VLAN issue mentioned?

Hi

Yes I configure same VLAN in two level and It's not sufficient.

Only changing mode, system reboot but I think this is not good solution.

Thanks

Hi

This is how it is configured.

UCSM is in 2.1(3e) version and NetApp in 8.3

Thanks

Hi

We view the NetApp interfaces are CNA so we are testing with Fcoe  Sotorage port. Is it right this option?

How confirure the vlans?

Hi

My error was I not had any server created. When I create a server with vNic in this Vlan the port are turn up in "storage port" mode.

Other question, If Netapp port are in ifgroup in Fabric Interconet with port channel?

Thanks
