Cisco Nexus 5000 with 4G FC module - initialization ?

Thomas - 

If I'm not mistaken, there is an additional license needed to activate
Fibre-Channel services on the Nexus family of switches.

God bless, 

Steve

Hi,

 

I got some trouble to get the 8-port (4/2/1 FC module) up and running in a
Nexus 5000. The module itself is shown in the inventory but when I want to
have a detailed look on an interface than there is no option "Fibre
Channel". 

 

Is there anything else to do with this module (activation, initialization,
etc. ?) 

 

Thanks

Thomas
