I'm trying to get open-fcoe running on my e1000 interface for the
first time. I have followed the man pages for dcbtool, fcoemon and -
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/14/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/fcoeconfig.html
(I understand that dbcd is now lldpad).

Here are the versions of all the relevant software-

[root@coreduo ~]# lldpad -v

[root@coreduo ~]$
[root@coreduo ~]# uname -a
Linux coreduo 2.6.35.11-83.fc14.i686 #1 SMP Mon Feb 7 07:04:18 UTC
2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

[root@coreduo ~]# ethtool -i eth2
driver: e1000e
version: 1.0.2-k4
firmware-version: 1.1-2
bus-info: 0000:00:19.0
[root@coreduo ~]#

When I try to get FCoE running on eth2, here is how it fails-
[root@coreduo ~]# dcbtool sc eth2 dcb on
Version:        2
Command:        Set Config
Feature:        DCB State
Port:           eth2
Status:         Failed
[root@coreduo ~]#

I noticed the following syslog error when I restarted lldpad-
Mar 13 19:44:22 coreduo lldpad[2330]: /usr/sbin/lldpad is stopping
Mar 13 19:44:23 coreduo lldpad[2377]: /usr/sbin/lldpad is starting
Mar 13 19:44:23 coreduo fcoemon: error 111 Connection refused
Mar 13 19:44:23 coreduo fcoemon: Failed write req P len 1

Looking at this thread -

I believe open fcoe should work on netdev based ethernet devices and
so it should work on e1000 driven eth2. So please correct me if my
understanding is wrong here.

Also,
[root@coreduo network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-eth2
DEVICE=eth2
HWADDR=00:1D:09:82:64:38
NM_CONTROLLED=no
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
TYPE=Ethernet
USERCTL=no
PEERDNS=yes
IPV6INIT=no
[root@coreduo network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-eth2.101
DEVICE=eth2.101
VLAN=yes
ONBOOT=yes
HWADDR=00:1D:09:82:64:38
NM_CONTROLLED=no
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
USERCTL=no
PEERDNS=yes
IPV6INIT=no
[root@coreduo network-scripts]#

Am I missing anything ? I have pretty much followed the man pages.

Many thanks,
KM
