• VSOM and VSMS living in a server

  We have two servers of CPS-MSP-2RU-K9 with VSOM + VSMS in both servers.

  It's (VSOM + VSMS) into Server-1 and new (VSOM + VSMS) Server-2.

  Can I have for VSMS and also for VSOM redundancy by this method?

  VSOM in a Server-1 can a control on VSMS in Server-2? What is a recommended Design?

  For VSM7, there are several styles of redundancy available VSMS (Media Server), based on the matrix of the IP camera, you want to deploy.

  There is currently nothing to * native * redundancy VSOM aside using VMWare High Availability deployment of VSM OVAs on platform Cisco UCS only.

  There is a lot more that goes into a very successful design and deployment that the information you have provided here.  My personal recommendation is to take advantage of your Cisco ATP partners or, at the very least engage the Cisco Helpdesk's PDI (http://www.cisco.com/web/partners/tools/pdihd.html)

• 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.

• UCS environment vSphere 5.1 upgrade to vSphere 6 with Nexus 1000v

  Hi, I've faced trying to get the help of TAC and internet research on the way to upgrade to our UCS environment, and as a last thought resort, I would try a post on the forum.

  My environment is an environment of UCS chassis with double tracking, tissue of interconnections, years 1110 with pair HA of 1000v 5.1 running vsphere.  We have updated all our equipment (blades, series C and UCS Manager) for the supported versions of the firmware by CISCO for vSphere 6.

  We have even upgraded our Nexus 1000v 5.2 (1) SV3(1.5a) which is a support for vSphere version 6.

  To save us some treatment and cost of issuing permits and on our previous vcenter server performance was lacking and unreliable, I looked at the virtual migration on the vCenter 6 appliance.  There is nowhere where I can find information which advises on how to begin the process of upgrading VMWare on NGC when the 1000v is incorporated.  I would have thought that it is a virtual machine if you have all of your improved versions to support versions for 6 veil smooth.

  A response I got from TAC was that we had to move all of our VM on a standard switch to improve the vCenter, but given we are already on a supported the 1000v for vSphere version 6 that he left me confused, nor that I would get the opportunity to rework our environment being a hospital with this kind of downtime and outage windows for more than 200 machines.

  Can provide some tips, or anyone else has tried a similar upgrade path?

  Greetings.

  It seems that you have already upgraded your components N1k (are VEM upgraded to match?).

  Are your questions more info on how you upgrade/migration to a vcenter server to another?

  If you import your vcenter database to your new vcenter, it shouldn't have a lot of waste of time, as the VSM/VEM will always see the vcenter and N1k dVS.  If you change the vcenter server name/IP, but import the old vcenter DB, there are a few steps, you will need to ensure that the connection of VSM SVS corresponds to the new IP address in vcenter.

  If you try to create a new additional vcenter in parallel, then you will have problems of downtime as the name of port-profiles/network programming the guestVMs currently have will lose their 'support' info if you attempt to migrate, because you to NIC dVS standard or generic before the hosts for the new vcenter.

  If you are already on vcenter 6, I believe you can vmotion from one host to another and more profile vswitch/dVS/port used.

  Really need more detail on how to migrate from a vcenter for the VCA 6.0.

  Thank you

• S30 Config UCS

  We received a S30 and somewhere along the line someone apparently had the brilliant idea of raid SSD and a hard disk of 1 TB in a single volume on the blue ports.

  So in the boot order that one disc shows as "UCS: Intel Volume_0001" or something similar.

  In the Advanced Configuration of UCS, the first two ports show how Intel Volume_0001.

  I am assuming that they could not accomplish this in software because they have created the drives C and D, and a hidden partition on this volume.

  Question is how did do that, I don't see any RAID quick post to make changes. I turned on all the relevant BIOS including settings disable the quick start, but all messages that appear are too fast to read.

  CTRL + I or Ctrl + H seem to have no effect.

  Thank you

  Thank you, somehow they corrected, although they have to take it back to the warehouse. Since I don't know what was the exact solution I will mark this as the solution.

• vFoglight with Cisco UCS

  Hello all,.
  We are looking for Cisco UCS for our ESX env. and I was wondering if someone was running vFoglight UCS and had problems.
  Or if someone of Quest/Vizioncore knows of any problem or future integration planned with UCS.

  Thank you
  Craig Dieck

  Craig, I know of many clients running the Cisco USC with VMware and they are very happy. There is no known issue with vFoglight perspective. VFoglight hardware monitoring currently able to extract any platform SNMP information. If you are looking for a vFoglgith to pull information from the physical ESX servers directly (not SNMP) you will need to ask for a discussion of the roadmap with your representative local of the quest.

  Inform the product manager for the platform you are using and what you want to be monitored and displayed...

• Visio icon - Logical UCS

  Hi all

  I am looking for logical UCS visio icon and can't seem to find them, such as 6100 fabric interconnect and 5108 chassis, like this

  

  I found this link, but there are the icons of only physical, not logical.

  http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/products/HW/prod_cat_visios.html

  I also found this link, the PMS 3015 has many logical icons, but I couldn't find the above.

  http://www.Cisco.com/Web/about/AC50/AC47/2.html

  Just a suggestion, have a single Web page for logical and physical icons and clear descriptions, add dates for update and consolidation for the logic of the product icons. This will help to find the icons much easier.

  Thank you

  Ming

  Hi Ming,

  Thank you very much for your patience while we looked in the files icon.  Here's an update.

  • We checked the files in the zip file and they are not empty, but the designs are very small and if the drawing opens at about 30% of zoom, it would be easy do not agree on the drawing.  Sorry for the inconvenience.
  • In any case we are downloading a new zip with versions expanded drawings for the 6100 (interconnection of fabric) and 5108 (server chassis) so that they are more visible on the page. Of course, you can resize in Visio to what size you need.
  • We contacted the owners of the areas of Visio files on the site of icons of network topology to http://www.cisco.com/web/about/ac50/ac47/2.html regarding:

  -Download Visio stencils for the 6100 and 5108.

  -Your comment to facilitate icons: have a single web page for logical and physical charms with clear descriptions, dates of update and groupings of products for logical icons.

• UCS C460 M2 - error 1902 during the firmware upgrade

  Hello!

  A few days ago, I could upgrade the firmware 1.5 (7 c) to 1.5(8a) and the BIOS to version 1.5.4a to 1.5.4b using file ucs-c460-huu - 1.5.8 has mapped via KVM using an old windows xp with java 1.7. In fact, this upgrade would allow access of latest java KVM, something that was lost a few months ago.

  On Monday, I did the same procedure on an exact server and everything was fine, but this server cannot update firmware.

  I get error 1902, described here:

  https://Quickview.cloudapps.Cisco.com/QuickView/bug/CSCui18044

  But there is not something to solve this problem.

  Any ideas please?

  Concerning

  David

  David,

  A few steps to try:

  -Turn off the server, remove the power supply and press and hold power for 30 seconds. Retry the upgrade.

  -Restart the MMIC before the upgrade.

  -Try the upgrade using a physical USB vs vMedia

  Let me know what questions you have and please share the results.

  Thank you

• Cisco UCS 260 M 2 5.5 U3 - custom image and compatibility

  TAC has a customer turned and pointed toward a compatibility table for an installed UCS - C 260M 2, stating that the firmware of the UCS and the latest version of Vmware is not supported.

  They are suggesting that the client moves to fimware 1.5 (9) and they use a customized image of Cisco for Vmware.

  This facility is for UC/EAC, so I have to make sure that the versions supported in the docwiki for these products as well is the Vmware version.

  http://www.Cisco.com/Web/TechDoc/UCS/interoperability/matrix/matrix.html

  The drop down menu shows Vmware 5.5 U3 is a supported version and I find that 5.5 is supported in the dockwiki. So far so good.

  However, when I try to find a custom image for 5.5 U3 image only I find it:

  https://my.VMware.com/Web/VMware/details?ProductID=353&downloadGroup=OEM...

  VMware 5.5 U3a. The version of the driver specified on this page do not match driver versions indicating the interoperability matrix must be used.

  First, is there a customized image of Cisco for 5.5 U3, could someone point me to this image so that these versions of the drivers are the same?

  Secondly, can I use ISO customized Cisco to upgrade a vanilla install Vmware 5.1 U3?

  -GDR

  Greetings.

  The Cisco Custom images are just a collection of pilots who were up-to-date at the time wherever it has been presented to VMware.  It is expected that iso custom will exactly match the interoperability matrix (it could have at the time, it was created), but at least provide newer drivers than what is usually installed in the general VMware releases.

  The interoperability matrix will list the specific driver, i.e. igb driver intel 1 GB network interface.  Download you the version of the driver for VMware site and install adapt you to the requirements notified by the interoperability matrix.

  You should be able to use a custom Cisco ISO to upgrade.  When your custom installation ISO analyzes your existing system, it will see a higher version of the drivers/VIBs and update those.  The Cisco with custom isos are simply the original VMware updated versions the drivers injected into them.

  Thank you

• 6248 FI Cisco's UCS with Cisco catalyst 2960 connectivity

  In our environment, UCS, connects the two fabric as a Cisco Nexus 9 k switch upstream with vPC and it works well. But we need to isolate some virtual servers on the blades of the UCS on an entirely separate DMZ switch which is Cisco catalyst 2960.

  (1) so can we connect cables separate physical twinax of FI uplink ports to catalyst 2960 and connectivity to the servers in the DMZ keeping YEW to nexus connectivity as it is?

  (2) in this case, as there are 2 switches to nexus core 1 and 2 so we will require 2 cisco catalyst 2960 for disjoint such a network? or otherwise we can connect A FI and FI B to one on his 2 numbers 2960 switch. Gig SFP ports + 10?

  (3) also suggest things must be taken in charge, the best guides practice or an illustration in this context.

  The assignment is static and cannot be changed.

  location 1 - uplink 1

  slot 2 - uplink 2...

  If a property has no blade, the corresponding uplink is not used and that can not be changed!

  This dedication of uplinks of IOM is of course a lot of resources: cables, ports on FI, allowed port,...

• 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.

• UC on UCS C-Series - Design

  Hi Team expert Cisco UC

  We have UCS server with 2 CPU.

  2.66 GHz Xeon E5640 80W CPU / 12MB cache/DDR3 1066 MHz

  I know that 4 VM can be created on this server, UCS.

  But UC on the description of the UCS shows differently.

  ----------------------------------------------------------

• Migrate CUCM, CUP and CUC VMS from the physical server Dell to a UCS

  Hi all

  We have 3 virtual machines from one physical server to Dell, we want to migrate those virtual machines from a server of the UCS.

  Reference Dell physical server:

  Model: PowerEdge M610

  UCS: Version of UCS B200 M4 3.0 (2 c)

  I was wondering if just copy all the files of the virtual machine to another server or there is another procedure to do this... and also we need new licenses of vmware?

  Thank you very much!!

  Kind regards!

  ESXi licenses is up to you, you might have bought it so that the UCS, or buy directly from VMWare, but you need to license.

  As for traffic, if you have vCenter, you can move the virtual machines using it (vMotion and/or Storage vMotion), or if not, you can perform a cold migration.
