• installation document ucs Manager

  someone can tell us where ucs manager is executed or can antbody can tell us where we can find a facility for ucs document manager with c-series single pedestal.

  Thanks in advance

  Erick,

  I think you are talking about two different things.  UCS Manager is for blades of series B and C-Series, which are built/managed by UCSM.  Stand-alone C-series is no manager of UCS.  Each C-Series is managed independently by the MMIC (Cisco integrated management controller).

• The NEW button disable Installation partitions - UCS - CSU.

  I have a C240 and I used the Cisco's UCS Server Configuration utility to create a RAID 1, now I am trying to create a new partition, but when I choose a free space, the NEW button remains disabled.

  I am a beginner in the world of the UCS, so if anyone can help me, I appreciate.

  Thank you.

  HI Erick,.

  What type of raid controller you have installed on this server.  If you have a controller LSI, I recommend that you try to configure the RAID using the WebBiosUility.  Here is a link to a document that you can walk through the steps of configuring this controller via this utility.

• UCS C200 Server Power Supply Question

  We make some changes in our data center and which involves electric grid.  We had to replace our Dustribution of power rack and to respond to the charge, we moved 208V, 3 phase power distribution.  Read the literature, I see that the power supply to the UCS C200 servers can operate 115V to 230V AC.

  My questions are: is it everything I have on power supply from 120V AC 208 v power supply power supply power supply?  Can I have a power running at 120 v and the other operating at 208V?  I try to avoid the closure of the server.

• VLAN overlap when upgrading to ucs 2.0 x

  Hi all

  We'll go to ucs 2.0 x 1.4.3(L).

  As we use the vlan 1 as vlan for ethernet and vlan native VSAN 1 FCoe (which is the default value for 1.4.3L).

  Althuogh we don't use VSAN1 at all, our current Setup uses too running vlan for glutaraldehyde VSAN and Ethernet to guide the UCS firmware upgrade and create a critical alert.

  SO I try to change a VSAN 1 FCoE vlan to vlan 4048 before update firmware the right pick up vlan 4048 is that we want to keep consistency for new UCS construction and implementation at level (4048 is default FCoE vlan for the new installation of UCS) 2.0

  When I connect to the UCS, I found VLANs 4048 looks like has been used by UCS internally (doc cisco suggest the same thing)

  4048 VLAN4048 active Po1 (Po1 is channel uplink ports)

  For the VSAN 1 FCoe VLan change, I have 2 questions:

  1st question is: can I change a VSAN 1 FCoE vlan to 4048 on 1.4.3(L)? Anyone who has the experience to do this?

  2nd question is:

  If the answer to Q1 is YES, what is the impact on the system UCS (ESX host, bare metal server and virtual machine) when I change VSAN 1 FCoE to vlan 4048?

  If you use no traffic set to 4048, you can skip about 4048 VLAN being listed for the channel for the ethernet port interface.

• UCS B200M3, quirk of connectivity to the Switch 3750 G

  Morning all,

  Hoping someone can help, I have a strange situation that occurs with my new installation of UCS.

  The configuration is:

  UCS chassis connected to a pair of interconnections of tissue 6248UP, using 2208XP/o Modules.

  I connect this to a stack of distribution 3750, I configured 2 etherchannels on the pile of 3750 and in the UCS Manager, these are configured to pass all the VLANS relevant, I have three blades (B200M3), installed in the chassis with VMWare ESXI 5 installed.

  Once they have all been implemented, they can communicate both feel to and from the network without problem, both vmware networks and local network.

  2 a night or more (without modification) blades (slots 2 and 3) stop communicating on the network. I can get them working again by making a few changes to network settings and everything will be ok until the next day.

  I am at a loss as to what may be causing this.

  Any help would be great.

  Thank you

  Chris

  That should solve your problem.  UCS will not pass unknown unicast, so if a MAC of UCS blade/VM address aging of your 3750, the outside world will be not able to reach it.  Under production operation normal/servers are normally talkative enough to avoid depleting and aging timers you only will see probably this at this time during the installation when there is little or no send/receive VMs.  Another option is to increase the timers of aging on the 3750.

  Let me know that he's going tomorrow.

  Kind regards

• UCS to SAN Brocade FC Switch mode

  Is it possible to connect a network SAN FC Brocade for interconnections of fabric once to have them put in place mode Switch CF?

  Thank you

  Hello Dani

  No! We do not support interop modes!

  the only solution is running FI in NPV mode and Brocade in Access Gateway (NPIV)

  Why is this not possible? We have many installations of UCS, connection to a cloth of Brocade with NPV mode

• Cisco UCS Direct Attached ISCSI Storage access upstream to storage array

  I'm doing my first installation of UCS with a chassis 5108) and (4) B200 M3 blade and (2) 6248 fabric interconnects. The plan is to connect our EMC VNX directly on the fabric of interconnections as the chassis will be the only system for access to the SAN, after migration from our current system. The fabric interconnects will be transmitted to (2) 4500-X switches configured in a vs.

  In my research of best practices and general deployment guidelines I noticed the need to create (2) separate iscsi VLANS for fabric and a fabric in B. I'm guessing that this requirement is the lack of STP as YEW is configured in EHM, but I was not able to find an exact answer. Any idea would be appreciated.

  My main question and my concern is that if I create a second VLAN ISCSI on our X 4500 and then create both of these VIRTUAL on FI networks A & B I'll be able to connect the SAN to the UCS as well as our former VMware cluster (we are migrating our system HP Compute and storage UCS 5.5 environment) in order to facilitate the vMotions of storage?

  I noticed the need for iscsi separated (2) VLAN a fabric and a fabric B

  Are you referring to

  https://www.EMC.com/collateral/hardware/technical-documentation/h8229-VN...

  p 36

  If I understand your question: can a host attached to 4500 (connected to the UCS FI), access LUNS on the VNX, which is directly connected to the UCS fabric interconnect through lanes (EHM FI) material? YES! I would accept this for a migration, but not forever, because it means that traffic on the fabric of interconnection.

• MegaRAID requesting an Activation RAID key

  Server is a UCS C240 M3 SFF

  with an LSI MegaRAID SAS 9266CV-8i

  We cannot allow RAID 10

  This requires an activation key.

  Can anyone advise on the process to get the activation key.

  Technical sheet or installation documentation makes no mention of a compulsory license.

  Sean,

  To create a RAID 10, you don't have to select "Advanced software Options" but instead of this, you will need to select "Configuration Wizard", then "New Configuration".

  We answered some time there in the community how to configure RAID 10 in different ways (via the GUI if you run MMIC 1.5 or later or through WebBIOS which is what you attempt). See this thread https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/11977411/ucs-c220-series-server

• HP Slekbook 15-b004tu: EFI System Partition

  I'm install windows 10 laptop HP, during the installation by mistak 240 MB EFI System Partition formatted, how to repair back this partition, partition shows me but empty the safe recovery options and also doesn't F11

  Help, please.

  Hi @Nikunjkacha,

  Thank you for your query.

  I take that you upgraded to Windows 10 and deleted the UEFI system disk partition. You have your recovery media and we will do a factory reset. If, after completing the reset factory, if the partition is not listed, here is a link to the HP Notebook PC - hardware failures (10, 8 Windows) screening, which will help you to install the latest version of diagnostics UEFI.

  Please let me know the results.

• HP 15-f039wm: Re: qualcomm-atheros wifi adapter does not work with windows 8

  Hello HP support.

  I have a HP 15-f039wm, product J8X12UA #ABA, running Windows 8.1.  I like it, but I thought I could improve it by upgrading to 8 GB, installation of a 240 GB SSD and move the 500 GB HARD disk to an external USB adapter.  So far, so good, so very jolly good.

  I also wanted to upgrade the Wi - Fi adapter to a faster power adapter with Bluetooth 4.0, but instead to get the AC7260 from Intel, I settled for a Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 with the Bluetooth BT3012 device, which belongs to a HP, I think.

  I shouldn't have paid.  Too late, I learned that the Atheros AR9485 has major compatibility problems.  Microsoft compatibility survey shows that some 530 speakers, 357 note as incompatible AR9485.

  This pair Bluetooth adapter and connects with my cell phone, but it remains connected for less than a minute before it disconnects.  It does not connect with something else I have.  It does not recognize my Bluetooth phone earpiece, and he recognizes that rarely my Bluetooth keyboard, with which it will pair but it never connects.

  The keyboard is a deal breaker - a must - have - and something really nice.  I tried the same Bluetooth keyboard sold by comb and Arteck jelly and a similar one by the EC technology, which has the top two rows of keys merged into one.  They connect immediately with an IPhone 4, but none of the three would be in contact with the BT3012 in my HP 15 - f039wm.

  Microsoft recommends the most recent drivers as a fix for incompatibility issues.  I downloaded the NIC drivers and card with Bluetooth Bluetooth drivers for the AR9485/BT3012 of http://www.station-drivers.com .  That updated the Qualcomm Bluetooth driver version 8.0.1.273, date from mid-2013, that came with the BT3012 (AR9485) Microsoft version of the driver 8.0.1.344 card, day 23/04/15.  Even still, it connects to my cell phone but nothing else.

  "Allow Windows to turn off this device to save power" is not checked for the adapter.  I also ran the 'netsh' command to clear the TCP/IP stack and reset the Winsock Catalog.  I have no intend to restore Windows to the factory; before that I would, I would get the Intel AC7260 more expensive card - that I probably do anyway, given the record of the incompatibility of the Qualcomm Atheros AR9485/BT3012.  I do not expect to change this folder, no matter what I do.

  But I'm open to suggestions.

  Thank you in advance for taking the time to investigate this problem.

  Hi @gospelmidi,

  Thank you for your inquiry.

  I take that you have swapped the hard drive and replaced the original card wireless and Bluetooth with the Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 with the Bluetooth BT3012 device and cannot associate with something other than your cell phone.  You tried to reset the TCP/IP stack, but there was no change.

  Did you run HP Support Assistant to ensure you have all the updates from HP?

  Have you tried to run the troubleshooter in Windows?

  Alternatively, you can try the following steps.

  Step 1. Go to Device Manager
  Step 2. Right click on "Bluetooth device" you want
  Step 3. Select "update driver software... »
  Step 4. Choose "Browse my computer for driver software".
  Step 5. Choose "Let Me pick from a list of drivers for devices on my computer.
  Step 6. Select "Ports (COM & LPT)"
  Step 7. Select "Microsoft" to the list of "manufacturers".
  Step 8. Finally select "Standard series via a Bluetooth connection.

  If you are unable to connect to a Bluetooth device, try the following:

  Step 1. Search for 'Change device' in the start menu in Windows 8.
  Step 2. Click on where it says change device installation settings.
  Step 3. Select No, let me choose what to do option.
  Step 4. Check the automatically get the device app option
  Step 5. Click on save changes to save the settings that you select

  So, you can try this

  Step 1: Go to RUN (Windows Logo + R) and type "services.msc" and Enter
  Step 2: Now find 'Bluetooth Support Service' and double click it
  Step 3: Now click on the Log on tab and type "Local Service" without the quotes
  Step 4. Click on "account".
  Step 5: Now remove any authorization of passwords the password field blank
  Step 6: Below the upper left title should be a hyperlink 'Start' click
