Configuring the FC port channel and trunking

Similar to an Ethernet port channel, a FC port channel or trunk can be created to aggregate multiple physical FC links into a single logical link to provide higher throughput and redundancy. A maximum of 16 uplink ports can be aggregated in a port channel.

Perform the following steps to configure the FC port channel:

  1. Log into UCS Manager.
  2. Click on the SAN tab in the navigation pane.
  3. In the SAN tab, expand SAN and then SAN Cloud.
  4. Right-click on FC Port Channel and click on Create Port Channel as shown in the screenshot.

  1. Click on Next.
  2. On the next screen, drag the appropriate ports to the port channel and click on Add Ports.
  3. Repeat the steps for both VSANs.
