This is a little tricky only because support for VN2VN in fcoeadm was only recently added upstream. It has been available in the kernel for a while. You need to connect two systems to each other, typically with 10Gbps Ethernet. For example, two Fedora systems with their latest release would support everything you need. You would need to ensure that fcoe.ko, libfcoe.ko, libfc.ko and scsi_transport_fc.ko were installed- 'modprobe fcoe'. Alternatively, if you run the fcoe service it should also install the above modules for you. Then you can: # echo <ifname> > /sys/module/libfcoe/parameters/create_vn2vn This is the simplest and most generic help I can give. Newer kernels also have a different sysfs interface, but the one above should still work. Newer versions of fcoeadm also support starting an interface in VN2VN mode, but until you pick a distro/kernel I don't want to assume it's available for you. Hope this helps, //Rob _______________________________________________ fcoe-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.open-fcoe.org/mailman/listinfo/fcoe-devel
