To get to the storage you need to set up a COS (Class of Service) queue. It also depends if you need traditional FC block (FCoE) or something IP based like iSCSI/NFS.<br /><br />One really nice thing about the UCS is you do have so many choices. You can dedicate as little or as much bandwidth to each blade or chassis as you need.<br /><br />In Aaron Delphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04330656671495950454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1841626496323335774.post-58103468412936588702012-12-03T15:49:15.490-05:002012-12-03T15:49:15.490-05:00I wonder what the maximum throughput will look lik...I wonder what the maximum throughput will look like down to storage.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15178844968496530513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1841626496323335774.post-91794988934288284662010-02-04T20:03:06.411-05:002010-02-04T20:03:06.411-05:00Thank you very much!

The IOM does pinning so each vNIC in the blade can only get a max of 10Gb or less. The or less depends on how many uplinks you have combined with how many of the other blades are active on your shared uplink.<br /><br />Nice post.<br /><br />RodosRodoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04402004276694798884noreply@blogger.com
