• Can I see faults offset and deleted in the UCS Manager?

  Is there a way to see the flaws that have been deleted in the UCS Manager and deleted once the retention period has expired?

  Thank you.

  No, unless you use an external syslog server.  It is the only way to maintain indefinitely offset flaws.

  Cristobal,

  It certainly is a cause of what UCSM bug doesn't do what it is supposed to and the only bug which is really (according to the version you are using) is https://tools.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCum95854/?reffering_site=dumpcr and seems to be fixed in the latest versions...  2.2.2c; 2.2.3A; 2.5.1a; 3.0.2c (UCS Mini)

  Advice is to contact TAC for assistance (if necessary).

• How to configure the UCS Manager?

  Hi, this is the first time im using the Cisco server and we have Cisco c240. My task now to monitor this server using SCOM. Research, I understand that it will take to install/configure the UCS Manager. But I'm not really sure how to set it up, I know it's similar with Dell OMSA, but for the OMSA, just install the application. But how do the Cisco server?

  Hello

  Although it is not clearly documented, integration SCOM is supported only for the blades of the series B and C-series rack mounts, which are integrated with UCS Manager. No support for stand-alone C-Series.

• The UCS Manager LDAP question

  Hi guys,.

  I was wondering if anyone could help with a weird problem that we seem to have met with our UCS Manager.  We set it up to use LDAP authentication for log on which works very well for four of the five members of the team, but we have a user that although it is in exactly the same groups as the rest of us continually gets unautheticated errors to the user.

  We did the habit of checking that it is not his machine or installation and in the newspapers that it even does not save an attempt to log on default so not sure what I can check any thoughts would be much appreciated!

  We use UCSM v2.1 (1e) in case it's relevant?

  Thank you very much

  John

  I ran into the same issue.  Has proved to be a bug in the firmware DN was too long.

  It is more a limitation of 128 characters for the number of units of organization or the length of the distinguished name (DN) when you use LDAP to Active Directory authentication.

• Upgrade of the UCS Manager

  Hi all

  I have my UCS Manager and I need to do an upgrade, my question is the VMS, I executed what I need to move them from one device to the other? or I can do the upgrade with no downtime?

  Can someone give me a procedure on how I do this?

  Thank you all.

  Hello

  An upgrade is usually done in two parts:

  (1) infrastructure (IOM, UCSM, fabric interconnection networks)

  (2) blades (BIOS, adapters, CIMC, Controller Board, Flexflash, etc.)

  During upgrade infrastructure, you will need to restart the fabric connects one at a time. When you make one of your two fabrics will be down for about 20 minutes. If you have redundant vNIC/vHBAs in all of your tissues A and B, it should ask only degraded services in the environment. However, a maintenance window is always recommended. When you upgrade the blades, you will need to restart. This is probably where you should move your virtual machines. After that you upgrade the blades make sure you update your OS drivers as well!

  UCS firmware update as follows:

  Download the firmware:

• How disable the buttons 'Delete Proflile' and 'Rename Profile' when the Profile Manager opens at startup?

  I have multiple Firefox profiles for the various people who use my computer and I'd hate for someone to accidentally delete my profile when you go online. Is there anyway I can disable this key at startup of Firefox and just work when I open the Profile Manager?

  I was originally going to just to give everyone their own Windows login, but it is easier for me to do only in this way. Help is appreciated.

  Ignore the Profile Manager by making a shortcut on the desktop for each of these profiles. You should learn to do it now, because the Profile Manager is likely to remove Firefox pretty quickly. My guess is in Firefox 9 or 10 at the end of this year or early next year.

• Manager of the UCS of 1.2 update (1 d) to 1.3 (1o)

  I use the instructions in the UCSM_GUI_Configuration_Guide_1_3_1.pdf to upgrade my equipment ucs.  There are several questions and I had.

  (1) it says to update the firmware for the IOM and wait until you activate the firmware on the fabric of interconnections that will restart the interconnection fabric and IOM, date on which IOM will be updated.  I did the firmware was not updated on IOM.  The backup version still shows 1.3 (1o) and the current version is 1.3 (1 c) IOM for, even if the fabric of interconnections successfully updated.  When I try to manually activate the firmware on the IOM, I get error combined modification.  The compatibility check failed. What is this?

  (2) I have treid activating the UCS Manager according to page 141 of the guide of version 1.2 (1 d) 1.3 (1o) and I find failed to start activation.  The check of the compatibiity failed. 

  (3) I tried to update the individual servers of 1.2 interface cards (1 d) to 1.3 (1o) and I will meet with the same errors of compatibility check.

  This is the first time I went through and tried to update the firmware on my new box of UCS.  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  During the activation of the new firmware, you must check the box to ignore the compatibility check.

• Use management/KVM ip addresses several areas of the UCS

  Hello

  We organize several servers UCS blades in two areas of the UCS. In all areas, we configured an IP ext-mgmt pool to join the MMIC of the blades. As our two infrastructure is developing, I was wondering if we could use the IP addresses that we use for pools in both areas?

  I read the guide management (http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/unified_computing/ucs/ucs-manager/G...) and as far as I understand it, if we use the inband IPv4 addresses these addresses are used between the fabric interconnects and server blades?

  So I could not addressed the KVM from "outside" so through the UCS Manager (equipment-> frame-> Server-> Actions "Console KVM"). Am I wrong? I did a few tests well failed to start KVM without our current configuration (IP ext-mgmt pool provides extrabande for each unique server IPv4 addresses).

  Thanks in advance!

  Concerning

  Martin

  Hi Martin

  I think that's not possible! as soon as you insert a blade, it will have an IP address from the ext-mgmt pool and assigns it to the MMIC! That's why this IP address is assigned to a chassis / slot, which means that if you move the blade to another location, most likely, it will get another address. It is a challenge, if you want a DNS entry for a blade / KVM access.

• Why can't I rename a folder in the project manager RoboHelp9 pod?

  Just trying to build about 10 files and after I right click and choose Rename and type letters and press ENTER, it goes back to being as if it was first.  I used to be able to rename files in the project manager.

• Integrating Active Directory and UCS Manager

  I'm looking to create an LDAP authentication provider in the UCS Manager that will authenticate users in Active Directory. I see the configuration guide UCS that a schema change is required to add a new attribute for user accounts and the guide details what the new attribute should be. However there are no detailed instructions on how to make the change to AD. I imagine some sort of import LDIFDE is required, but does anyone have more detailed steps on how to do it?

  Thank you

  You can ssh in your UCS, go to the NxOS prompt and test authentication as follows:

  Laurel - A (nxos) # test cpaggen aaa cisco group ldap
  the user has been authenticated
  Laurel - A (nxos) # test aaa group ldap cpaggen cisco1
  user authentication failed
  Laurel - A (nxos) # test aaa group ldap foo doesntexist
  user authentication failed
  Laurel-a. (nxos) #

  Make sure that this part of work. The role assignment comes from CiscoAVPair and the value must be a shell: roles = 'admin' If you want the user to be an administrator. CiscoAVPair must be an attribute of the user object. I've attached a screenshot of Wireshark for a successful authentication and authorization.

  You will also find the definition of the user and configuration of my UCS.

• Error UCS Manager Console KVM to open after Java Update

  After the upgrade to version 1.7_21 Java I tried to access the KVM console from within the UCS Manager (v2.1 (1 d)) and get the error message:

  "Cannot run the program"C:\\Program": CreateProcess = 2 error, the system cannot find the file specified."

  I tried to remove installed applications and applets as well as temporary files from the Java console inside, but it does not solve the problem. We also tried to launch the console KVM in KVM Manager and that works very well. Everything works correctly when you run Java 1.7_17.

  Everyone knows about this problem since upgrade to 1.7_21?

  Thank you.

  In the meantime, you can install Java in a directory path that has no space to work around the problem. For example: c:\Java\jre7

  This will give you access KVM again.

• UCS Manager & Vmware

  Hi guys,.

  Before we set our Cisco UCS solution in we have Vmware running with Nexus 1000v switch. After the installation of the Cisco UCS solution, we migrated a lot off the coast of the old system to the new. By reading the manual on setting up vCenter, Port and VMS profiles in UCS Manager, it seems that this creates a new on the nexus 1000v vsm. Anyway is to import what we have so that we see in the UCS Manager?

  David, the functionality of the UCS you speak is known as VN-Link in the material while the Nexus 1000v is known as VN-link in the software. Installation and configuration is very similar to the Nexus 1000v but they are separated distributed virtual switches.

  Unfortunately, you can't use both because they require the VEM loaded on ESX hosts and the UCS VN-link requires a login policy dynamic UCS vNIC. If you use the 1000v, you will not be able to use the VM tab in UCSM and you will not see anything on the virtual computers tab on a Service profile.

  In my opinion the Nexus 1000v is preferable because is offer more features, more scalable and is managed/set NX - OS. Of the UCS VN-link option also limits the number of virtual machines, you can run on a host computer, because the dynamic vNIC takes in charge a maximum of 56 depending on how rising your chassis to your FIs. If you have only 2 uplinks of your chassis then the max machines virtual host when using the UCS VN-Link is 20-24, according to the number of vNIC ESX host, you create as part of your Service profile.

• Replace the UCS - b2xx HARD drive

  We have a UCS with blades B200.

  One of the HARD drive led STATIC amber, (it is a HARD drive failure according to the documentation), but UCS Manager did no show any alert.

  My first question is... I see not awake in the UCS Manager? I have to turn on any kind of follow-up to the HARD drive?

  The HARD drive was reflected with RAID 1, then why has decided to install a replacement.

  We extracted the defective HARD drive and inserted a new (because they are Hot Swap we did with the server on).

  But now the UCS Manager is showing the HARD drive as a disc UNKNOWN, so he did not recognize it

  We rebooted the server with no luck.

  What should I do any kind of procedure of the UCS to recognize the new drive and rebuild the RAID 1 mirror?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Which firmware version are you running?

  In versions prior to 2.0, we had has very little followed HDD and reports. The status UNKNOWN to the driver after installing a new is also due to a bug known in versions 1.4 or previous.

  If you see the normal LEDs on the disc, then you know that the re - build is finished, you can also restart the blade and enter the optional ROM of LSI, and check the status of the drivers.

• 6120 link down on mgmt0 triggers not UCS Manager failover cluster - is?

  Hello friends

  We have recently installed a cluster consisting of two 6120 UCS s configured for HA. When executing fail during test cases, we removed the network cable in mgmt0 on 6120 elementary. Immediately the cluster IP address is not responding ping (as expected) and we lost connectivity to the UCS Manager GUI (also as expected.) At one point, however, we expected the 6120 subordinate to detect that this link was down and launch a failure over the UCS. This is not moved after 20 minutes of waiting.

  My questions are the following:

  1. Is this expected behavior?
  2. If this is not the case, what should us review to ensure that failover occurs in the future?

  I know we can force a failover of the subordinate by issuing a command to the main cluster of local-mgmt but would be interested to see if it should be automatically produced on the failure of primary mgmt0 binding.

  Thank you for your time.

  Configured by default which is the expected behavior.

  You can configure management interface and failover if the management interface loses connectivity such as your test scenario.  That's what you're looking for.

  Admin - Communication Management - Management Interfaces - Management Interface tab strategy control tab.

  

  Kind regards
