2 nos BR-VDX6740-24-F in HA mode & vcs mode logical chassis

I need to install 2 vdx BR-VDX6740-24-F switches which can act in HA in a fabric using logical chassis mode. Please provide me configuration guide for OS 7.2.0b.

Here is the configuration guide:

Page 32 - Basic VCS fabric configuration

In general:

set the same vcsid and unique rbid “vcs vcsid <same #> set-rbridge-id <unique for each switch>”
connect ISL link between switches (should be at least 10G)
check with “show vcs” command

Thanks for the config guide. Till now I upgrades both the vdx 6740 to stable firmware, configured them in logical chassis mode & connected them using ISL links to form a fabric.

Now I want to configure them to support FCoE protocol as I am going to connect them to storage servers. Can you please share me the FCoE configuration guide.
