Had to do a bit of configuration on an HP c7000 blade chassis the other day. There was a need to have two separate uplink pairs going to two different pairs of switches from the single chassis. I needed to provide both uplink paths to each host within the chassis (they were ESXi hosts).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here is the configuration to do this for one of the uplink pairs, for the other uplink pair you just do the same thing, but applying the server-port-map-range to different physical ports on the blade. Each blade has 8 pNICs (4 on the LOM and 4 on a mezzanine card).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this example ports 3 and 4 are going to be used to provide active\/standby paths through the Flex-10 fabric to the physical network beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
add uplinkset VLAN_Trunk_1 ConnectionMode=Failover\n\nadd uplinkport enc0:1:X4 UplinkSet=VLAN_Trunk_1 Speed=Auto Role=Primary\n\nadd uplinkport enc0:2:X4 UplinkSet=VLAN_Trunk_1 Speed=Auto Role=Secondary\n\nadd network vlan1 -quiet UplinkSet=VLAN_Trunk_1 VLanID=552 NativeVLAN=Enabled NAGs=Default\n\nset network vlan1 SmartLink=Enabled\n\nadd network vlan2 -quiet UplinkSet=VLAN_Trunk_1 VLanID=555 NAGs=Default\n\nset network vlan2 SmartLink=Enabled\n\nadd network vlan3 -quiet UplinkSet=VLAN_Trunk_1 VLanID=554 NAGs=Default\n\nset network vlan3 SmartLink=Enabled<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\nIf you want vlan1 to be untagged to the host where these 3 vlans are trunked to the host on ports 2 and 3, you need an extra bit of configuration:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
