When complete each of our ESXi servers will have 4 Xsigo vNICS. show server-profile name state descr connection def-gw vnics vhbas - Yourserver3 up/up 0 0 Yourserver4 up/up 0 0 Yourserver1 up/up 0 0 Yourserver2 up/up 0 0 4 records displayed Set Up and attach the virtual NICS to your server profile In this step we created our Xsigo vNICS, attached them to the appropriate server profiles, and the 10gig Modules. show server-profile name state descr connection def-gw vnics vhbas - YOURSERVER1 up/unassigned 0 0 1 record displayed Assign the server profile to a port on the Xsigo set server-profile YOURSERVER1 connect Short way to create a Server Profile add server-profile YOURSERVER2 add server-profile YOURSERVER1 add server-profile YOURSERVER1 Then use show server-profile to confirm your entries. (If they don’t show up here it could be an interconnect or ESXi issue) Enter the command ‘show physical-server’ to view your connected show physical-server - name localhost. showlog phonehome.log Wed Jan 5 17:30:: Phone home successful to Wed Jan 5 18:04:: Phone home successful to Wed Jan 5 18:04:: Phone home successful to Press CRTL-C to Exit Tip: your log might be empty until it has something to send Ensure your Physical servers are attached As expected all 4 servers are attached to this Xsigo. show system phone-home - enabled true freq weekly next Fri Jan 14 12:44: notify no strip yes alarm yes name COMPANYNAME email phone copy p-host 555.555.555.555:3128 p-user - 1 record displayed Check on the Phone Home Log.
Port 10 and Port 11 are the 10gig Fibre Modules this command places them in Trunk Mode set ethernet-port 10/1 -mode=trunk. Now it’s time to setup the Xsigo Place the Xsigo into Trunk Mode. Enter “help” for information on available commands. Back to ESXi Let’s setup the NFS Connection In vCenter server simply click on the host Configuration Storage Add Storage A new window appears, choose Network File System then next Fill in the IP of the ix12, the folder name, and datastore name click next Confirm and you’re done! Next steps are to use Storage vMotion (aka Migrate Virtual Machines datastore) the Test vCenter Server from local storage to our new NFS Share.Īll rights reserved.
Once the network was sound, I enabled NFS on the ix12 and setup a NFS folder Yes folks, it’s that easy to enable NFS on the ix12 The only step not show here was setting up a storage pool for NFS and associating the shared folder to it. Note: By changing the network information usually means a reboot of the device L I logged into my ESXi host, placed it in and used ping to test ix12 interface. Tip: One cool thing about the ix12 is we can allocate NICs for different functions, in this case NIC3 & 4 is for our esxi test environment and nic1 is for another purpose. We choose link aggregation, ensure the IP was correct, and bonded NIC 3 and 4 on this ix12.
