Virtual Connect modules 230
• FC modules in multi-enclosure double dense domains
When using VC-FC modules, multi-enclosure double dense domains require similar and compatible
VC-FC modules in bays 5, 6, 7, and 8 in all enclosures. If a multi-enclosure double dense configuration
contains incompatible VC-FC modules in bays 5, 6, 7, or 8 in either the local or remote enclosures,
some or all of the compatible VC-FC modules in the remote enclosures might be designated
INCOMPATIBLE after import.
Corrective action:
a. Replace incompatible VC-FC modules with similar and compatible VC-FC modules in bays 5, 6, 7,
and 8 in all enclosures.
b. Power cycle any VC-FC module that still remains in an INCOMPATIBLE state.
