Appendix
Migrating an Earlier Configuration to Release 2.0(2xx) or Later
Note
This procedure causes server downtime.
This start of this procedure assumes this existing configuration:
•
A Cisco UCS system running Cisco UCS Manager software release 1.4(
1x
) or 2.0(1x).
•
A Cisco UCS C-Series server that is running CIMC firmware release 1.2(2
xx
).
•
The server has been discovered by UCS Manager and it has an associated service profile.
•
The configuration uses two Cisco Nexus 2248 FEXes.
•
The management path from the server connects to the FEX but the data path connects directly to the
FI (as shown in
Figure D-4 on page D-13
).
Use the following procedure to migrate an earlier configuration to Cisco UCS Manager 2.0(2xx) or later.
Step 1
Use UCS Manager to decommission all of the rack servers in the UCS system.
Step 2
Use UCS Manager to
Unconfigure
all FI server ports that are connected to the Nexus 2248 FEX.
For information about using Cisco UCS Manager, see the
Cisco UCS Manager Configuration Guide,
Release 2.0
or later.
Step 3
Verify the unconfigure by issuing an NX-OS
show fex
command. Wait until the command return does
not list the FEX.
Step 4
Disconnect the cable that is between the FEX and the FI.
Step 5
In UCS Manager, issue a
remove fex <
fex_ID
>
command to remove the FEX from the database.
Step 6
Use UCS Manager to
Unconfigure
all FI server ports that are connected to the server’s adapter card.
Step 7
Disconnect the cable that is between the FI and the server’s adapter card.
Step 8
Disconnect the cable that is between the FEX and the server’s LOM connector.
Step 9
Upgrade your UCS Manager software to release 2.0(2xx) or later and the FI firmware to the
corresponding level.
See the upgrade guides at the following link:
Cisco UCS Manager install and upgrade guides
.
Step 10
Physically replace the Nexus 2248 FEX with a Nexus 2232 FEX in your rack.
Step 11
While your C-series server is still unattached to the UCS system, connect it directly to your network so
that you can upgrade the firmware by using the standalone CIMC utility.
a.
Connect an Ethernet line from your LAN to one of the 1-Gb LOM ports on the server (not the
dedicated management port, which is disabled in UCSM mode).
b.
Follow the instructions in
1. Upgrading the Firmware and Rebooting in UCSM Mode, page D-7
,
then return to the next step in this procedure.
Step 12
Cable the configuration as shown in
Figure D-2 on page D-5
.
In this new configuration, the data and management paths both connect from the server to the FEX. The
paths between the FEX and the FI carry both data and management traffic.
Step 13
Verify the FEX by issuing an NX-OS
show fex
command. Wait until the command return lists the new
Nexus 2232 FEX. The FEX will automatically upgrade to the corresponding FI firmware version.
