Getting Started
This chapter provides an overview of the basic configurations that need to be completed before getting started with IOA-specific configurations:
•
Configuring FC-Redirect v2 Mode
•Using FC-Redirect with CFS Regions
•Using IOA Cluster with IPFC Interface
Enabling SSH
SSH needs to be enabled on all the IOA switches for Fabric Manager to provision IOA. By default, the SSH service is enabled with the RSA key.
To enable the SSH service, follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|
Step 1 |
switch# config t |
Enters configuration mode. |
Step 2 |
switch(config)# feature ssh updated |
Enables the use of the SSH service. |
For more information about the SSH service, refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Family NX-OS Security Configuration Guide.
Enabling CFS
CFS must be enabled on the IOA switches as well as those switches of which the hosts and targets are directly connected to. FC-Redirect internally uses CFS to configure the rules for any given flow in the fabric.
To globally enable CFS distribution on a switch, follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|
Step 1 |
switch# config t switch(config)# |
Enters configuration mode. |
Step 2 |
switch(config)# cfs distribute |
Enables (default) CFS distribution on the switch. |
For more information about CFS, refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Family NX-OS System Management Configuration Guide.
IP Access Lists
Cluster communication requires the use of the Management interface. IP ACL configurations must allow UDP and TCP traffic on ports 9333, 9334, 9335, and 9336.
Zone Default Policy
For FC-Redirect to work correctly, the default zone policy on all the switches in the IOA environment must be configured to deny and the initiator-target pairs must be configured in user-defined zones.
FC-Redirect
This section includes the following topics:
•FC-Redirect Unsupported Switches
FC-Redirect Unsupported Switches
FC-Redirect is not supported on the following switches, which also means that IOA is not supported:
•Cisco MDS 9148 Switch
•Cisco MDS 9140 Switch
•Cisco MDS 9134 Switch
•Cisco MDS 9124 Switch
•Cisco MDS 9120 Switch
•Cisco MDS 9020 Switch
FC-Redirect Requirements
FC-Redirect requirements for IOA include the following:
•The MDS switch with the MSM-18/4 Module installed or the 9222i Switch needs to be running Cisco MDS NX-OS Release 4.2(1) or later.
•The targets must be connected to a FC-Redirect-capable switch running Cisco MDS NX-OS Release 4.2(1) or later. The hosts must be connected to a FC-Redirect-capable switch running Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 3.3(1c) or later.
•32 targets per MSM-18/4 Module can be FC-Redirected.
•In FC-Redirect v2 mode, up to 128 hosts per target are supported. If you do not enable FC-Redirect v2, this is limited to 16 hosts per target.
•CFS is enabled by default. Ensure that the CFS is enabled on the switches that have the host and the target connected. Also ensure that the CFS is not disabled on switches that are part of the IOA cluster.
•Advanced zoning capabilities like quality of service (QoS), logical unit number (LUN) zoning, and read-only LUNs must not be used for FC-Redirect hosts and targets.
Configuring FC-Redirect v2 Mode
To enable the v2 mode in FC-Redirect, use the fc-redirect version2 enable command in configuration mode. To disable the v2 mode in FC-Redirect, use the no form of the command.
This command is used to increase scalability of FC-Redirect. Disabling v2 mode after it is enabled in the fabric is not recommended. However, if you want to disable v2 mode, you cannot disable it until all FC-Redirect configurations are deleted. FC-Redirect configurations can be deleted only by deleting all corresponding application configurations.
The MDS switches not running Cisco NX-OS 3.3(1c) and later cannot be added to the fabric after the v2 mode is enabled. If the switches are added, all further FC-Redirect configuration changes will fail across the fabric. This could lead to traffic disruption for applications such as IOA, SME, and DMM.
Use the show fc-redirect configs command to see the list of applications that create FC-Redirect configurations.
If v2 mode is enabled in the fabric and you want to move a switch to a different fabric, use the clear fc-redirect decommission-switch command before moving the switch to a different fabric. If the mode is not enabled, all switches in the new fabric will be converted to v2 mode automatically.
Note Ensure that there are no fabric changes or upgrades in progress. For more information see "Software Requirements" section on page 1-5. Use the show fc-redirect peer-switches command (UP state) to see all the switches in the fabric.
To enable v2 mode in FC-Redirect, follow these steps:
Step 1 Enter the following command:
switch# fc-redirect version2 enable
Step 2 Enter yes.
Please make sure to read and understand the following implications
before proceeding further:
1) This is a Fabric wide configuration. All the switches in the
fabric will be configured in Version2 mode.Any new switches
added to the fabric will automatically be configured in version2
mode.
2) SanOS 3.2.x switches CANNOT be added to the Fabric after Version2
mode is enabled. If any 3.2.x switch is added when Version2 mode
is enabled, all further FC-Redirect Configuration changes will Fail
across the fabric. This could lead to traffic disruption for
applications like SME.
3) If enabled, Version2 mode CANNOT be disabled till all FC-Redirect
configurations are deleted. FC-Redirect configurations can be
deleted ONLY after all the relevant application configurations
are deleted. Please use the command 'show fc-redirect configs'
to see the list of applications that created FC-Redirect
configurations.
4) 'write erase' will NOT disable this command. After 'write erase'
on ANY switch in the fabric, the user needs to do:
'clear fc-redirect decommission-switch'
on that that switch. Without that, if the user moves the switch
to a different fabric it will try to convert all the switches
in the fabric to Version2 mode automatically. This might lead
to Error conditions and hence Traffic disruption.
Do you want to continue? (Yes/No) [No]Yes
Step 3 Enter yes.
Before proceeding further, please check the following:
1) All the switches in the fabric are seen in the output of
'show fc-redirect peer-switches' command and are in 'UP' state.
2) All switches in the fabric are running SanOS version 3.3.x or
higher.
3) Please make sure the Fabric is stable ie.,
No fabric changes/upgrades in progress
Do you want to continue? (Yes/No) [No] Yes
Using FC-Redirect with CFS Regions
The FC-Redirect feature uses Cisco Fabric Services (CFS) regions to distribute the FC-Redirect configuration. By default, the configuration is propagated to all FC-Redirect-capable switches in the fabric. CFS regions can be used to restrict the distribution of the FC-Redirect configuration.
Note Using FC Redirect with CFS regions is an optional configuration only if the number of switches in the SAN exceeds the scalability limit supported by IOA. As of MDS NX-OS Release 4.2(1), the number of switches supported in a fabric is 34.
To learn more about CFS regions, refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Family NX-OS System Management Configuration Guide.
Guidelines for Designing CFS Regions For FC-Redirect
To design CFS regions for FC-Redirect, follow these guidelines:
•Ensure that the CFS region configuration for FC-Redirect can be applied to all FC-Redirect-based applications. The applications include Cisco SME, Cisco DMM, Cisco IOA, and any future applications.
•Ensure that all FC-Redirect-capable switches, that are connected to the hosts, targets, and the application switches (switches with MSM-18/4 modules in a cluster), are configured in the same region.
•All switches in the region must have a common VSAN.
•For existing IOA installations, refer to "Configuring CFS Regions For FC-Redirect" section for steps on migrating to CFS regions.
•Remove all instances of the previous configurations when a switch is moved to a region or moved out of a region.
Configuring CFS Regions For FC-Redirect
To configure the CFS regions for FC-Redirect, do the following tasks:
Step 1 Configure a switch in the CFS region as shown in the following example:
switch# config t
switch# cfs region 2
switch# fc-redirect
switch# end
Repeat this step for all the switches that are included in the specified region.
Step 2 Confirm that all the required switches are available in the CFS region by entering the show fc-redirect peer-switches command.
Step 3 To migrate existing Cisco IOA installations to CFS regions for FC-Redirect, delete all the existing FC-Redirect configurations created by the switches in other regions from each switch. To remove the configurations, perform the following steps:
a. Obtain a list of all FC-Redirect configurations by entering the show fc-redirect configs command.
b. Remove all configurations created by the switches in other regions by using the clear fc-redirect configs command. The configurations are removed from the switches but the switches remain active in the region in which they are created.
Using IOA Cluster with IPFC Interface
Internet protocol over Fibre Channel (IPFC) provides IP forwarding or in-band switch management over a Fibre Channel interface (instead of management using the Gigabit Ethernet mgmt 0 interface). You can use IPFC to specify that IP frames be transported over Fibre Channel using encapsulation techniques. IP frames are encapsulated into Fibre Channel frames so that cluster management information can transmit across the Fibre Channel network without using an overlay Ethernet network.
When you use IOA cluster with the IPFC interface, the IOA cluster can use cluster management-related messages through Fibre Channel ISLs by encapsulating cluster management related messages in to Fibre Channel frames instead of using the management interface.
Note Configuring IOA cluster with the IPFC interface is optional and is supported in Cisco MDS NX-OS Release 5.0(4c) or later. Support for GUI for configuring IOA cluster with the IPFC interface might be added in the future releases.
Note You must configure the nodes in an IOA cluster either to use an IPFC interface or a management interface. We do not recommend using the combination of two interface configurations.
Task Flow for Configuring IOA Cluster To Use the IPFC Interface
To configure IOA cluster using the IPFC Interface, follow these steps:
Step 1 Create an IPFC interface.
a. Create a VSAN to use for in-band management.
b. Configure an IPv4 address and subnet mask for the VSAN interface.
c. Enable IPv4 routing.
d. Verify connectivity.
Step 2 Create an IOA cluster.
Step 3 Change the local node to use IPFC interface's IPv4 address.
Step 4 Add the IOA interfaces to the cluster.
Step 5 Add the remote node with IPFC interface IPv4 address.
Step 6 Add the IOA interface of the remote cluster.
Configuring IOA Cluster To Use the IPFC Interface
The process of configuring an IOA cluster to use the IPFC interface involves a number of configuration tasks that should be completed in the following order:
•Creating a VSAN Interface and Configuring IPv4 Addresses
•Creating IOA cluster and IOA interface in the Local Node
•Verifying Cluster Configuration
•Adding a Remote Node and IOA Interface to the Remote Node
•Verifying the Cluster Configuration
Creating a VSAN Interface and Configuring IPv4 Addresses
The first step in the process of configuring IOA cluster to use the IPFC interface is to create a VSAN interface and configure IPv4 addresses.
To create an interface VSAN, perform this task:
After creating the VSAN and configuring the IPv4 address, use the show interface vsan command to verify the configuration:
sw-231-14# show interface vsan 1
vsan1 is up, line protocol is up
WWPN is 10:00:00:0d:ec:18:a1:05, FCID is 0xec03c0
Internet address is 10.1.1.1/24
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1000000 Kbit
0 packets input, 0 bytes, 0 errors, 0 multicast
6 packets output, 384 bytes, 0 errors, 0 dropped
sw-231-14#
Enabling IPv4 Routing
To enable IPv4 routing, perform this task:
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|
Step 1 |
Switch# config t |
Enters configuration mode. |
Step 2 |
Switch(config)# ip routing |
Enables IPV4 routing. |
Step 3 |
Switch(config) no ip routing |
Disables IPV4 routing. |
After enabling IPv4 routing, use the show ip routing to verify the configuration.
sw-231-14(config)# show ip routing
ip routing is enabled
Verifying Connectivity
To verify the connectivity, use the show ip route and ping commands.
sw-231-14# show ip route
Codes: C - connected, S - static
C 10.1.1.0/24 is directly connected, vsan1
sw-231-14# ping 10.1.1.2

Creating IOA cluster and IOA interface in the Local Node
To create an IOA cluster and IOA interface in the local node, perform this task:
To configure an IOA cluster, you can use the name of the switch if the network supports DNS service. The IOA cluster requires switch name to IP address resolution.
Verifying Cluster Configuration
To verify the cluster configuration, use the show ioa cluster name node summary command.
sw-231-14# sh ioa cluster cltr1 node sum
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Switch Site Status Master Node ID

To verify the IP address of the node, use the show ioa cluster <name> node command.
sw-231-14# show ioa cluster cltr1 node
Node sw-231-14 is local switch
Node ID is 1
IP address is 10.1.1.1
Status is online
Belongs to Site site2
Node is the master switch
Adding a Remote Node and IOA Interface to the Remote Node
To add a remote node, perform this task:
