Power Consumption, M1000E with 8 blades, ESSA no good
Hi all, anyone know why in the ESSA you can only configure an M1000E chassis with 1 or 16 blades?
I need to be able to show the max power consumption of a chassis with 8 blades. Just seems the ESSA has a glitch.
thanks

I was able to duplicate the issue. As an alternative solution, what you can use is the Data Capacity planner at

Scroll down past the ESSA to the DCCP option. From there, the chassis is already at 16 blades. From here, you can remove 10 blades to get down to 6 to match your system.
