INE Lab - MDS3 and MDS4

Hi Guys,

I need your advise on two point here.

Point 1: I can see from the INE LAB topology diagram that there is MDS3 and MDS4 but I am not really sure how to connect to these MDS (3&4) and if we really need them?

From the telnet option, I can get access to MDS1 and MDS2 which connects to the FC-SAN one way and connects to the UCS-FI the other way.

Has anyone actually used the MDS3 and MDS4? Can you point me to what session on the LAB guide that refers to it?

Just getting confused with this and needs some help understanding how its setup from the MDS point of view.

Point 2: I enabled the port (fc2/3) connecting MDS1 and MDS2 to the FC-SAN and could only see one device in the flogi database. I have configued the interface as mode FL and was hoping I will see multiple flogi from the different disks. Is this not the case?

Please your input from you experience with the lab will be most helpful

Thanks

MDS1

MDS1(config-if)# sh flogi database
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTERFACE        VSAN    FCID           PORT NAME               NODE NAME      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
fc2/3            1     0x6102ef  21:00:00:1b:32:07:32:23 20:00:00:1b:32:07:32:23
Total number of flogi = 1.
MDS1(config-if)#

MDS1(config-if)# sh run int fc2/3
interface fc2/3
  switchport mode FL
  no shutdown
MDS1(config-if)#

 

MDS2

MDS2(config-if)# sh flogi database
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTERFACE        VSAN    FCID           PORT NAME               NODE NAME

fc2/3            1     0x6402ef  21:01:00:1b:32:27:32:23 20:01:00:1b:32:27:32:23
Total number of flogi = 1.
MDS2(config-if)#

 

MDS2(config-if)# sh run int fc2/3
interface fc2/3

MDS2(config-if)#
