Explanation

To allow your ESXi hosts to perform FCoE logins (FLOGI) and see their boot LUNs, the FI port facing the servers must be configured as a server port. Server ports present an N-Port to host HBAs so the hosts can register their FCIDs; appliance ports are for storage arrays, and uplink ports are for connecting to upstream FCoE/san switches. Configuring FC1/24 as a server port restores the FLOGI entries and lets the servers boot.
