Hi Eddie thank you for your response.
I can setup a link between those two switches easy but if I remember correctly when I've done that the switches behave strange as in a loop or something, high io activity and the cards were not even available to query. Looked like a loop...
But I can work with the failover later, right now my issue is that I cannot see both switches, and nic1 is directly connected to switch1 and nic2 to switch2
Since I cannot see witch 2 I cannot manage it. ALso, if I restart switch1 to access switch2 as soon as switch1 comes back link gets lost to sw2... very dangerous to firmware update.
