The correct answer is A. Create VSAN1011 and assign it with vfc1 and fc1/48 on the N9000 device. The Nexus 9K must be running in FCoE NPV mode and have the FCoE VLAN mapped to the same VSAN that your MDS is using. In the exhibit the VLAN->VSAN mapping was created for VSAN 1011, but the only VSAN membership shown is VSAN 11. The fix is to: 1. On the Nexus 9K: 2. Verify that…

Explanation

The Nexus 9K must be running in FCoE NPV mode and have the FCoE VLAN mapped to the same VSAN that your MDS is using. In the exhibit the VLAN->VSAN mapping was created for VSAN 1011, but the only VSAN membership shown is VSAN 11. The fix is to: 1. On the Nexus 9K: 2. Verify that show fcoe database now lists your server WWN and that show vsan membership shows VLAN 1011->VSAN 11 bound to both vfc1 (the server-facing FCoE port) and fc1/48 (the Enabling fcoe-npv and aligning the VLAN-to-VSAN IDs restores FCoE connectivity so the UCS server can issue FLOGIs and boot from SAN.
