   Tomas,
   We experienced the same problem with the QLogic 57810 in some Dell M830 Blades. They are all running on 6.0u2 Build 4600944.
   FC (bnx2fc) Driver Version 2.713.10.v60.4
   NIC (bnx2x) Driver Version 1.713.10.v60.4

   We tested your parameter change in esxcli and it worked as you noted.

   Here is the Powershell/PowerCLI code we used to fix it on all of our hosts:

   $M830s = get-vmhost | Where-Object {$_.Model -like „PowerEdge M830“}

   foreach ($M830 in $M830s){
   if(((get-esxcli -VMHost (get-vmhost $M830)).system.module.parameters.list.Invoke(‚bnx2fc‘) | Where-Object {$_.Name -like „bnx2fc_autodiscovery“} | `
   Select-Object -ExpandProperty Value) -eq „1“)
   {
   Write-Output „Already Updated: $M830“
   } else {
   Write-Output „Updating $M830″
   (get-esxcli -VMHost (get-vmhost $M830)).system.module.parameters.set($true,$false,“bnx2fc“,“bnx2fc_autodiscovery=1″)
   }
   }

   Hi Tomas,

   Can you help for the physical switch and vSwitch configuration to support FCoE? I got the issue as FCoE software adapter is up but ESXi can not connect to SAN.

   Hi Thomas,

   Thanks for posting this.

   I had exactly the same issue on the same hardware, but with ESXi 5.5u3 Build 5230635

   Your solution worked for us
