You need a NIC that supports it. We are currently using the Broadcom Corporation BCM57840 NetXtreme II 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter. However, multiple vendors sell a converged network adapter that should work.
You’ll also need to verify that your switch supports FCoE. This is where you’ll connect up to your SAN fabric. If you’re in the market for new compute blades as well, you can go the route we did. The Dell FX2 platform has a couple of 4 port FCoE and Network switch in the back of each chassis so you can cable up directly to the fabric without changing your top of rack switches to FCoE. Here’s some more information: http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/poweredge-fx/pd Specifically the FN2210S IO Module for that chassis: http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/fn-io-aggregator/pd -Patrick On Oct 20, 2015, at 7:23 AM, Kapetanakis Giannis <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: On 19/10/15 18:14, Patrick Russell wrote: We use FCoE in our setup. All the configs are in /etc/fcoe/ and fcoeadm is part of the ovirt-node iso. So this should work the same as setting up FCoE on CentOS or RHEL. https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/fcoe-config.html -Patrick Do you use special hardware (switch or nics) for FCoE?
