Hello,

Recently i have deployed Cisco DCNM 10.4(2) ova, currently its up but seems to be having some issues, can any one help me which option i need to select?

–blank VXLAN Fabric- For VXLAN BGP EVPN deployments.

–blank LAN, SAN, Auto-Config - For VDP or VM Tracker deployments.

–blank Media Controller - For IP Fabric for Media Solution deployments.

–blank SAN -For SAN only deployments.---> i have select this option (as we want to use only to manage SAN switches through DCNM)

Can we also manage Storage devices (Hitachi, NetApp and EMC) from DCNM, but i tire to connect the device i get this message

pastedimage_4

when i tried to restart the service i get below message

pastedimage_11

but i have set IP to enhanced fabric mgmt in other port group. For what purpose this enhanced mgmt IP works or come in picture?

pastedimage_12

Please let me know how to clear the error or need to redeploy the VM?

  1. Discover virtualized servers using VMware before discovering Nexus devices to which the virtualized servers are connected.
  2. To discover the servers and devices using the web client, follow this procedure:
    1. Go to Servers– Admin Menu > Data Sources > VMware
    2. Go to Nexus Devices– Admin Menu > Data Sources > LAN
  3. When the Nexus device port server is up and running, Cisco DCNM detects automatically and triggers the server discovery.
  4. Use the show mac address-table command in Cisco DCNM to track the host connected to the switch.
