NPIV Cisco UCS to CX4-120
Hello,
Does anyone have experience connecting a Cisco UCS system to their existing SAN (CX4-120)? I have created a couple of FC uplink ports on my Cisco 6248 Fabric Interconnects and connected those to my MDS 9134's. However, upon doing that I receive this error on the uplink ports of my Cisco 6248's:
"Suspended due to NPIV is not enabled in upstream switch".
OK sounds simple......so I need to enable NPIV on my MDS 9134's right? But what what happens once I do this.......is it disruptive to all my SAN connected servers? Do I lose my configurations?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

enabling NPIV is very easy (feature NPIV) and it's not disruptive, also 6248 need to be in "host access mode"
