• UCS-C210 m2 fan speed issues

  one of my servers has fans will quickly 6 to 8 k.

  

  My second server of similar configuration is at a normal speed around 2 K.

  I had this happen in the past and I think that I've updated the firmware which seemed to fix. but it seems to have reappeared.

  I restarted the server, and the fans are always go fast.

  both servers are running the BIOS

  C200.1.4.1.0 (Build Date: 13/07/2011)

  CIMC

  

  ======

  Update:

  Earlier, I tested just as to completely stop the server and restart that seems to have helped.

  except now only PSU fans go around 5 K

  the system fans seem to have stabilized to the normal range of 2 to 3K.

  

  my other UCS Server PSU fans are running at 2-2. 5 k.

  Temperature is not a problem, they are both running around same time.

  .. and are both under minimum load

  any ideas as to why the power supply fans are vivid?

  Hi Robert,.

  I guess I must also point out that your two servers have two different versions of them supply systems which explains the differences of stabilized power supply fan accelerates even after having worked around the bug, in my opinion, one of the servers may have met.  UCS-c200 has older PSUS that have two fans online so that fans can run a low speed to maintain the required temperature.  UCS-c210 m2 has newer power supplies that have only a single fan in them so they run the fans at higher speeds to maintain the required temperature.

• Cisco UCS C210 M2: PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of

  Hello

  I'm working on Cisco UCS C210 M2 servers. I got 10 146 GB SAS HD with LSI MegaRAID Raid Controller. I did run the Raid Controller and choose RAID6. After that I installed ESXi and it said to reboot the server. Now, when I restart the server I get the following error message:

  PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of

  PXE - M0F: Exit Boradcom PXE ROM

  Restart, and then select proper boot service

  or Insert Boot Media in some boot device and press a key

  Any suggestions how I can solve this problem.

  Thank you.

  You will need to go into the Bios of the controller LSI MegaRaid (Ctrl + H) and select the option of virtual drives on the left. When the virtual command window opens, you must select the drive (Raid Volume) on which you want your drive master boot and underneath there will be an option to set as your boot device. Apply and save.

• UCS-C210 Firmware

  When I try to update the firmware via TFTP I get an error message Image_CRC_Failure on the web and CLI.  I tried to re - upload the image and I tried several versions of the image.  I also tried the upgrade via the web and I get to 5%, and the system hangs.  When I try to log in I get this error message: "this browser has already a MMIC session. Only one session is allowed by the browser. You must log on to the other session, connect with a new session. "I click on the link"Logout of the other session", but I can not always log in.  I have to completely power off the server for the Web to become available.  When I say "shut down", I want to say that I physically remove the cable from the back and wait 10 seconds.

  Could someone tell me please the right way with these 2 questions?  It is the first time that I had the chance to work with the UCS-C210 and I'm about to say that I'm not impressed because this isn't the first question that I met.  I like Cisco and I won't get that far right now.

  Any help is appreciated,

  Terry

  Hello Terry,

  These types of problems are usuing the fault of a Windows TFTP server cause CRC errors.   Have you tried downloading interface Web of another client by chance?

  Have you tried the HUU (Host Update Utility)?  It's an ISO you just go up and it will update all FW components as you like.

  You can get it here:

  http://www.Cisco.com/Cisco/software/release.html?mdfid=283862069&flowid=25882&softwareid=283850974&release=1.4%281C%29&relind=available&rellifecycle=&RelType=latest

  * Note the name of the file will be called something like "ucs -c200- huu - x.x.x.iso", but that's fine.  The C200 and C210 are the same basic architecture, and this package is compatible with both.

  As for your other questions, you can configure the MMIC to allow multiple connections: it's under Admin settings or Communication, I think.  By resetting the MMIC (not disturbing for the host operating system), you can clear all 'stuck' sessions.

  Let me know how you go and we'll get you squared away, I promise you.

  Kind regards

• New UCS-C210 problem with video monitor output

  Hi all

  We just bought a new Cisco UCS C210 M2 product for our CUCM migration to Virtual Machines. We plugged a HP monitor and a USB keyboard to start work with the UCS. Then we plugged the server to the power supply and turn on the server, the fan worked properly for his initial shot. However, I could not see the monitor up and I can't see if it boots correctly. We waited and notice that the keyboard seems to work as you can see the num and lock the scroll works.

  I unplugged the monitor of the connection of the console before the use of the foxconn connector that came with it and plugged into the DB15 port on the back. Same result the monitor does not display anything.

  So I went on the second UCS server using the same keyboard and mouse, everything works.

  Any who know this problem of the screen does not? If so, please share how to fix it.

  Otherwise, our conclusion would be that Cisco sent us a faulty hardware or it has become defective during the transport.

  Thank you best regards &,.

  Ramon

  OK fans turn upwards and then downwards with the lights on the front would indicate to me that the server itself is ok and boot up normally. The fact that you have used this monitor UCS one another in the same way seems to indicate that the problem is probably with this server and a video on the issue. I suggest to open a TAC case and include these steps you have taken. If you can, try reinstalling all your memory and boot up the server again.

  I hope this helps.

• UCS-C210 M2 RAID 10 (1 + 0)

  Hello everyone

  I doubt that the raid 10 (1 + 0) that several sources indicated that they need 4 hard drives, however I have read elsewhere that are required to at least 2 disks.

  I could indicate if UCS C210 M2 Server is that you can configure RAID 10 with two 300 GB hard drives each.

  Thanks for responding.

• Replacement of CMOS on UCS-C210 R2

  Hi all

  Just a quick question. I replace a failing on my Cisco UCS C210 Server CMOS battery. My main question is there will be loss of specific configuration settings in addition to the typical parameters of the Bios?

  Marcus,

• Cisco UCS-C210 M1 accredited for Unified Communications server

  Hello:

  Our VAR tells us that HP and Cisco are splitting up.  We are an HP store today and 7800-H series MCS routers were a perfect fit.  Our VAR tells us now that he must go with the renamed IBM systems.  BUT I would avoid the IBM servers.  And attractive servers Cisco.  But I have been unable to determine if the Cisco UCS-C210 M1 server is certified for various applications of Unified Communications (Manager of Communications, unity, Cisco Emergency Responder, ICM, CVP, etc.).

  Has anyone heard of Communications deployments unified on the hardware of the UCS?

  Thank you

  Ken

  UCS blades are being qualified for management of the applications of the CPU now. The qualification of rack mount server is expected, specifically the C210 later this summar I think.

• UCS-C210-M2 on the problem of gigabit ethernet ports.

  I have 2 x C210 M2 with 2 mother board gigabit ethernet ports and 4 gigabit ethernet ports on a PCI card ports.

  PCI 4 port cards work fine.

  On the 2 ports on the motherboard, I have a problem with ESXi 4.1:

  My 2 ports is auto-negotiation and on the vsphere client speed and duplex of the ports are always displayed correctly.

  The switch network where the server is connected is a C-3560.

  I use this server for Unified Communications, one I see the problem on downloading large files.

  With a virtual machine connection of the unit, when I want to download a file of locale (language file - 650 MB to 1 GB)

  The download progress is displayed in MB and it progresses very slowly as 1 MB every many seconds.

  Whereas, when I use a map PCI 4 port gigabit port, I can see the progression to go at a speed of tens of MB in the same period.

  The only way to have growth to proceed more quickly with the 2 on the main Board gigabit ports, is to set the speed of the 3560 switch

  10 Mbps and half duplex. In this case, when we look at the client vsphere, the gigabit on the server port negotiates to 10 MB - half Dupl.

  and the progress is constant and much faster that it is at this time to 1000 Gb/s Full Dupl.

  Someone has an idea.

  My CIMC firmware version is 1.4.1 and I run ESXi 4.1.0

  Concerning

  Marc - CCIE 2700

  Hello Mark,

  LRO of ESXi feature works well with the Linux kernel (depending on the version of UC apps, they rest RHEL 4.7 / RHEL 5.5)

  Try to turn off RSO on ESXi and check the transfer rate.

• Drive of DVD in UCS C210 M2 Server does not

  Hello

  In one of our UCS C 210 M2 Server, the DVD player does not work. Whenever I use a bootable CD, it does not start using this CD. When I checked the option of boot command I don't see the CD/DVD drive. Then I checked in the BIOS and found that DVD player is not visible in the BIOS also.

  Is there anyway to make this work.   The CD/DVD drive is a SATA.

  Krishna.

  Krishna,

  If you do not see in the BIOS, try and make sure the SATA cable is in place in the DVD player and the chassis. Or, possibly, put back the cable.

  Thank you

• Installing 2nd power C210 M1 - needed downtime?

  I have several servers UCS C210 M1 who have just a diet, I need to install a second.   Will I need to shut down the servers to install the second power supply?

  I found details about installing them here...

  http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/unified_computing/UCS/c/HW/C210M1/install/replace.html

  and see that they're hot, pluggable but it is unclear if the interruptions of service is required to install a second delivery of pwr.  I think that it may be necessary to ensure that the system starts with two power supplies and so knows the configuration.

  Thank you

  Todd

  You need not turn off the server to install the second power supply.

• C210 M1/M2 LSI 1064E only see 4 of 5 disks

  I have several UCS C210 M1 and M2s, each has 5 x discs installed (72Go).  Interrupt the boot via Ctrl-c process to configure the RAID LSI 1064E controller but it shows only 4 of 5 readers installed.   I see 5 orders through the option of MMIC inventory.

  Why am I not able to see all 5 readers?

  Also have another question on the RAID IM option.  I am setting up two RAID arrays each with 2 discs and want a hot spare for them as well.  Each in own need dedicated relief? or 1 hot spare is available for both tables?

  Thank you

  Todd

  You want to consider whether your C210 has a SAS Expander or SAS Extender.  These are maps girls connected to the back of the drive Bay and receive the connection of the controller board.  By default, a C210 will have an extension of SAS.  The SAS Expander is a update available at the time the C210 is ordered, it is not available as an upgrade of the domain.

  The SAS Extender can provide connectivity to 4 disks SAS cable connected on it.  The 1064 only has support for a cable and is limited to 4 disks when used with the Extender of SAS.  The 9261 supports two cables and is limited to 8 disks.

  The SAS Expander and support up to 16 disks with a single SAS connection.

• Not a huge C210...?

  Hello

  While having a look at the UCS C210 tecniques, I saw the server doesn't support 3 TB HARD drive... the server making it less powerful than, say that DELL 510, which can accommodate about 36 TB in a server rack mounting 2RU (obviously using these drives 3 TB, which are on the market for several months).

  I was wondering if there is any explanation about it.

  Thank you very much

  Just to add, these 3 TB in the Dell server disks are 3.5 ".  The current C210 M2 supports drives 2.5 ", then the capabilities are not as high.

  We intend to offer platforms that support disks 3.5 "and the larger capacities such as 3 to drivces next year.  Our strategy for the market has more customers making network/SAN startup, the densities of local storage was not an urgent priority, but he is coming for those who want it.

  Kind regards

  I have several UCS C210 server with a configured Interface of CIMC. When I go to a local jumphost servers, everything works fine.

  If I access my terminal server server, I do not get the login form. The site with the news of liberation.

  The difference is, access to the pit of the Interface a firewall of the server terminal Server (port 20, 443 and 2068 are open) with IExplorer 10 and NAT.

  Is there a limitation on the browser or on the NAT? Or do I have to open some ports on the firewall?

  Thanks for your help

  Best regards, Daniel
