Hello there.
I've got an old c7000 blade chassis with VC (4.50 or so) flexfabric 10/24 modules for a lab purposes.
Well, I've already dealt with c7000 enclosures in the past, but they were equipped with a "classic" switches and OEM brocade FC switches, which were the part of a babrics (not the AG). However, I've also faced VC in a Synergy environment, so I'll handle it in c7000 too. But there is a question about which I'm not sure: can I use FCoE "direct-attach" mode to connect to a non-3PAR storage? Documentation says I must use "fabric-attach" mode with SAN switches (so VC modules will play an AG role, I guess) and can use "direct-attach" mode with 3PAR storage only, but at the moment I have only VNX. So should I even waste my time to try (gotta move to a datacenter) or this will not work for sure?
Apologies for my bad English.
