Doc Text:	With this update, Red Hat Virtualization can now handle FCoE block storage. Depending on the FCoE card on the hosts, special configuration may be needed as described in https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/fcoe-config.html To configure FCoE block storage, run engine-config -s UserDefinedNetworkCustomProperties='fcoe=^((enable\|dcb\|auto_vlan)=(yes\|no),?)*$' on the Red Hat Virtualization Manager then restart the Manager. Ensure that the required host has vdsm-hook-fcoe installed then enable FCoE on a NIC. To enable FCoE on a NIC, attach a network then set the FCoE network custom property to enable=yes[,dcb=yes][,auto_vlan=yes].	Story Points:	---

Executed storage tier1 automation and manual negative using the hook.
Note that for FCoE, we used servers with Broadcom BCM57800 Ethernet multi function controllers which require DCB to be disabled (BZ #1353659). 

One more issue, fcoe and lldpad services are not enabled by the hook to start on boot (BZ #1353456).

Verified using:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.2 (Maipo)
Kernel: 3.10.0-327.28.2.el7.x86_64
vdsm-4.18.5.1-1.el7ev.x86_64

rhevm-4.0.2-0.2.rc1.el7ev.noarch


Hardware:
2 hosts connected to a Dell S5000 switch via 2 10G Ethernet ports [1] each (8G configured to be allocated for FC on each switchport)
XtremIO connected to the Dell S5000 switch via 2 8G FC ports.
Dell S5000 switch convert FC communication from XtremIO to FCoE communication to the hosts and vice versa.
6 LUNs exposed to the hosts from the storage server.
