I agree, this sounds like the default QoS policy is applied, and the 
default FCoE policy needs to be used instead. Step 2 from Ryan's link.

Current I have storage attacked to the 5k fine but the problem i am having is with the B22HP. I can see the ethernet ports fine and in DCNM see the FCOE ports but they are not talking back to the 5k to attack to the SAN. Can not see Flogi entry for the fcoe ports.
