Enable SmartFabric for VxRail
This information explains how to enable SmartFabric for VxRail.
1. Log into the Linux shell.
S4128F-1# system "sudo -i"
We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:
#1) Respect the privacy of others.
#2) Think before you type.
#3) With great power comes great responsibility.
[sudo] password for admin:
root@S4128F-1:~#
2. Run the VxRail personality with sudo privilege to set the default ICLs and uplinks for the platform and reboots the switch in Fabric
mode.
NOTE:
Dell EMC Services works with you to define the values for the script.
3. Enter Y to enable SmartFabric for VxRail and reboot the switch automatically.
4. Run the VxRail personality to enable the VxRail personality profile. Use the options to override the default configurations for ICLs,
uplinks, management VLANs, uplink breakouts, and uplink dynamic LAG configurations.
NOTE: To enable the VxRail personality profile for a single switch, use the -i None option.

is no uplink, provide 'None/Null'
-i ICL, --icl ICL VLT Inter Chassis Link(ICL) interfaces separated by a
