Step 3
Close the levers and tighten the captive screw on each lever.
Step 4
Connect the networking cables (see
SFP+ Transceivers, on page 62
and
Proper FEX and Fabric Interconnect
Port Connectivity, on page 59
).
Step 5
Verify that the module is functioning correctly. See
LED Locations, on page 35
and

Migrating to UCS 6300 Series Fabric Interconnects and the UCS
2304 IOM
You can migrate from a UCS 6200 Series Fabric Interconnect to a UCS 6300 Series Fabric Interconnect. You
can also revert back to UCS 6200 Series Fabric Interconnect after you have migrated to a UCS 6300 Series
Fabric Interconnect.
You cannot migrate from a UCS 6100 Series Fabric Interconnect to a UCS 6300 Series Fabric Interconnect.
Before You Begin
Before starting the hardware migration, make the following changes to Cisco UCS Manager software:
•
Download Cisco UCS Manager, Release 3.1 to the UCS 6200 Series Fabric Interconnects and upgrade
to this version.
•
Download Cisco UCS Manager, Release 3.1 to the UCS 6300 Series Fabric Interconnects.
•
Ensure that all fabric interconnects have the same versions of the kickstart, system, and UCS Manager
images.
•
Upgrade the B-bundle if you plan to use the UCS 2304 IOM.
•
If you plan to migrate to a UCS 6332-16UP Fabric Interconnect, determine the number of VSANs that
are configured in your system. If more than 15 VSAN IDs are configured, reduce this number to 15 or
less to avoid possible configuration issues with Fibre Channel or FCoE ports on a UCS 6332-16UP
Fabric Interconnect. It is not necessary to reduce the number of configured VSANs before migrating to
a UCS 6332 Fabric Interconnect.
Migrating Fabric Interconnect Modules
The steps in this section apply to the following scenarios:
•
Migrating from a UCS 6248 Fabric Interconnect to a UCS 6332 Fabric Interconnect with a UCS 2204
or UCS 2208 IOM, 2 to 3 tuple
•
Migrating from a UCS 6248 Fabric Interconnect to a UCS 6332-16UP Fabric Interconnect with a UCS
2304 IOM
•
Migrating from a UCS 6296 Fabric Interconnect to a UCS 6332 Fabric Interconnect with a UCS 2204
or UCS 2208 IOM, 2 to 3 tuple
•
Migrating from a UCS 6296 Fabric Interconnect to a UCS 6332-16UP Fabric Interconnect with a UCS
2304 IOM
