ONTAP Select - node network ports

pedro_rocha — Thu, 18 Jul 2024 14:26:43 GMT

Hello!

Is it possible to add network ports (virtual) to an OTS cluster?

I know that there are predefined ports and roles for each: e0a, e0b, e0c, e0d, e0e, e0f, e0g.

For example, can I add another virtual nic and make it e0h for example?

Use case. I have a situation where 4 DATA portgroups are needed. We only have e0a and e0b as data network ports for a given node in an OTS cluster.

Regards,

Pedro

You can add up to 10 vnics to ONTAP Select so you would have: e0a, e0b, e0c, e0d, e0e, e0f, e0g, e0h, e0i, and e0j.

I have tested this on ONTAP Select running 9.15.1P1 on a ESXi host running version 8.0.2
