Enabling FCoE on HP Servers

Newer servers come with CNA adapters preinstalled, but it is also possible to insert additional cards if needed. In order to use FCoE on a new server you will normally need to enable it from the BIOS (iSCSI is default).

In HP Servers the setup is pretty straight forward and you can enable it from the BIOS using the following steps:

1. Press F9 during POST to enter the BIOS
2. Select System Options
3. Select Nic Personality options
4. Press Enter on each of the nics and select FCOE
5. Exit & Save
