ONTAP 7.3.6.
This is a FAS2050C (IBM N3600 A20) that has a SAS expansion card in each controller. As such, we're limited to only the two onboard GigE ports.
e0a and e0b both go to different physical switches and suck in two different networks, so we can't vif 'em together easily.
I have a need to introduce a vlan interface to e0a and am wondering if it's possible to do so non-disruptively and preserve access to the e0a via the untagged traffic on the network. Both interfaces are configured with 'nfo'.
I've found conflicting information on this.... some say you can mix untagged on your e0a interface and tagged traffic on e0a-vlan## just fine. Others say it's not doable and I'll need to get my network guys to tag all the traffic and move my e0a to a vlan interface.
Not sure I'm seeing a way to do this without some downtime... even if I do a cluster failover, I don't see how a failback would work if I've mucked with the interfaces.
Thanks, Ray
