QoS/PFC Traffic Class 3 and Traffic Class 7

[mbze430]

Since we don't use RoCEv2 or RDMA we really don't need PFC.  Instead I would like to "reclaim" TC7 for CoS7 and DSCP 56-63 for that usage.

I was able to reclaim TC3 for lossy traffic but I still can't get TC7.

if someone can tell me how to do that?  thanks!

Hello @mbze430 , were you able to find a way to reclaim TC7? 

[mbze430]

Unfortunately, no.  I couldn't figure it out.  Worse off is that I am not sure how to get it to even start QoS normally again.  Right now the switch is running with no QoS.

That error shows up because TC7 is still linked to a lossless or fabric priority group in the current CEE map. Even if PFC is disabled, the switch won’t let you remap it. Edit the CEE map to detach TC7 from that group, apply the changes, then reapply your DSCP to TC configuration, it should work after that.
