Not only the Cisco devices, but also third party devices like the EMC VNX 5500. But when I tried to add the VNX to the UCS-D system, I received an error and had a problem… Howto fix this. Gladly there is some good documentation after a good search. 😉
Here’s a video I created with the solution.

But why choose MDS 9396S over Brocade 6520 ? Brocade can have 2.1 us of latency while the MDS 9396S got a latency … Read more
