This procedure can be used to onboard Isilon storage array front-end ports onto the fabric. The NIC on the Isilon nodes do not currently support LLDP. A server interface profile will need to be created for each connection to the Isilon array.
Use the following table as reference while creating the server interface IDs.
Isilon node | Server interface ID | Switch | Switch interface |
Node 01 | Isilon01-1 | S5248F-Leaf2A | 1/1/17:1 |
Isilon01-2 | S5248F-Leaf2B | 1/1/17:1 | |
Node 01 | Isilon02-1 | S5248F-Leaf2A | 1/1/18:1 |
Isilon02-2 | S5248F-Leaf2B | 1/1/18:1 | |
Node 01 | Isilon03-1 | S5248F-Leaf2A | 1/1/19:1 |
Isilon03-2 | S5248F-Leaf2B | 1/1/19:1 | |
Node 01 | Isilon04-1 | S5248F-Leaf2A | 1/1/20:1 |
Isilon04-2 | S5248F-Leaf2B | 1/1/20:1 |
To onboard the Isilon nodes, perform the following steps.
