<div>Looks like all the protocols are supported. FCoE, iSCSI, NFS for 3rd party. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Anyone running any of this in production and care to put in your two cents?</div>

<div dir="ltr">OK planning storage requirements for UC on UCS upgrade from 8.6(physical) to 10.5(vm)
<div><br>
</div>
<div>we are looking at 2 CM nodes, 1 UC, 1 UCCx, one CER, PLM, PCD, and presence. The way I see it from the VM doc's it looks like I need about 1 TB of storage and roughly 8k IOPS. What Protocols are supported? FCoE? iSCSI? NFS? The only thing I have found
thus far is FC.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Can anyone confirm that IO and Storage looks reasonable? and let me know which protocol's are TAC supported?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks</div>
