Workaround for Cisco Nexus 1000v for vEthernet Interface limit

Hi All

       Actually we have a cisco nexus 1000v  Release 4.2(1)SV1(5.1) with VMware ESXi 4.1  and we are reaching the max number for vnics or vEthernet Interface for this version. Do you know if there are any workaround to deal with this issue?

       Also, the max configuration for a vDS with VMware is 1016 ACTIVE ports. This means that Cisco Nexus is not capable as VMware vDS?
