How to install Lenovo Flex System FC5022
Installing the FC5022 involves preparation, physical deployment, and fabric configuration to ensure a reliable, high-performance SAN. Follow these general steps to achieve a smooth deployment within a Lenovo Flex System environment:
- Plan and prepare: Verify chassis compatibility, confirm firmware baselines, and ensure you have the appropriate rack rails and cabling to support a secure, accessible installation.
- Rack, cable, and power: Mount the FC5022 in the Lenovo Flex System chassis using the recommended rails, connect 16Gb Fibre Channel cables to your storage arrays and host HBAs, and attach the management port to a secure out-of-band network. Where available, configure redundant power paths for continuous operation.
- Initial boot and health check: Power on the switch, verify POST success, and review LED indicators for port health, cooling, and temperature. Access the management interface via the console or out-of-band network to confirm baseline readiness.
- Firmware and baseline configuration: Update to the latest recommended firmware version, apply security baselines, and configure essential parameters such as time zone, administrator accounts, and SNMP where used. Establish consistent management practices across the SAN.
- Fabric configuration and testing: Create zones, map LUNs to hosts, enable NPIV if required, and perform end-to-end connectivity tests with HBAs to validate paths and performance. Document configuration for audits and future maintenance.

Fun Goose Dog Toy
I have a small dog with about 20 plush toys to play with. Added to her inventory now is the ILC Buy Interactive Goose Toy for Small Breeds. It took me a while to figure out where the toy "squeaks", and it makes the noise when the white banded neck around the goose is squeezed. My dog took an immediate liking to the toy and loves to carry it around the house, shaking her head back and forth with the goose in her mouth.
It appears to be made primarily of burlap (see pictures) and is about 12-13" in length. Fortunately, my dog doesn't destroy toys, as some (probably larger) dogs do, so it appears to be pretty sturdy and well-made. After a week of playing with it regularly, the toy still looks brand new. I like the coloring and the size of the goose, and this is a nice addition to my dog's playtime routine. It is also priced appropriately for a dog toy of its size and quality.
Recommended. Made in China.

Durable toy with a single squeaker
This goose seems to be made of fairly durable fabric. It's not flimsy. I had a hard time finding the squeaker in it at first, but then I realized the squeaker is located in the white neck!
My medium border collie grabbed it first. Then my pitbull figured out where the squeaker was and ran around squeaking it for a while, which is her favorite thing to do. So this toy did get some interest from the pitbull especially. She isn't one to chew things up but really enjoys toys that make noise. Since the squeaker is in the skinny neck portion, it made it easy for her to grab hold of it and squeak it over and over again.
I am giving this 4 stars only because in the whole long body of this toy, the neck has the only squeaker. I think it would have been better and more stimulating for my dogs if it had multiple squeakers or even some crinkles in the rest of the body...at least some crinkles in the flat feet of the duck. The sole attraction is that one squeaker in the neck. So it could be better, but I do like that it isn't super plush and full of stuffing that would be torn up in 5 minutes like most toys.
My pitbull actually took this to another room away from her three sisters, so that means she really wanted to play with this by herself. That's a good sign.

Duck-time is play-time! Exactly what a dog toy should be!
Duck hunting for your living-room princess-pal best buddy goodest puppy in the world!
Every dog deserves a chance to be a heroic duck hunting hero!
This dog toy is a favorite of my pup. Duck-time is play time! This duck is made with several fabulous textures. There's a ropey texture around the neck, a burlap type texture for the body and head, and a felt-like texture for the bill and feet.
My dog immediately tore the feet off! He always removes any hanging bits from all toys, so that's not a comment to the detriment of this product. He's working on the wings, now.
My dog likes to chase this toy when I throw it or play tug-of-war with it, or is willing to sit and chomp on it by himself for a while. The rope is intact, still!
This is exactly what a dog toy should be! Give your little buddy a hunting trophy!

Speaker broken
This toy is advertised as having a squeaker, but the one we had was defective and did not make any noise. Our dog still throughly enjoyed ripping this little duck to shreds through. The material was thicker than I was expecting but still only took our dog about 5 mins to completely destroy it (Golden retriever). I understand that this toy is marketed as for small dogs so I get that, but took away three starts because our came with the broken squeaker and for $10, you can find a lot better toys at TJ Max. This item is not a good value for our experience.

Durable duck toy for man’s best friend
Although it was suggested that this toy would be best for small breeds, I found that it’s durable enough for my 80 pound Irish setter! It has literally become his best friend. He takes it everywhere he goes! There’s a small squeaky noise that comes from the neck area that he has to work to find. I’m sure he will eventually destroy this as he has with all his other toys, but it’s really holding up much better than anticipated.
It is well worth the $10 cost.
