Cisco UCS C220 with VIC 1225

Hello,
We have Cisco UCS C220 M3 with VIC 1225 card installed. We connected only one 10G port of VIC 1225 to Nexus 5548UP switch. But I do not see this port on switch and in CIMI the status for this port shows Link Down. I wanted to to iSCSI boot from storage NetApp FAS2240 but since I don't see this port on my Nexus switch I am unable to do boot from NetApp. I tried both ports on VIC 1225 with same result. Please I need help in this matter. I know I am missing something very simple but can't figure this out.
Thanks,
Salman

Hi Kenny,
Here is the answers:
-What slot is this card installed in?
Mezzenine
-How many CPUs does the server have installed? (1 OR 2 CPUs can make the difference)
2x 2.90 GHz E5-2690/135W 8C/20MB Cache/DDR3 1600MHz
-Is the PCIe slot enabled in BIOS? << Let us know if you don't know how to check it from CIMC
I believe I did. Server>BIOS>BIOS advanced> PCIe (Let me know if this correct)
-Have you confirmed that the cable is good?
I have changed four cables. I am using SFP-H10GB-CU2M= Twinax cable.
-If the switch does not even see the port and CIMC says it is down, have you confirmed the switch port is properly configured?
CIMI says “Link Down” in VIC adapter General area. The switch interface config has only “switchport mode access” in default vlan 1.
-What is the firmware running on the server and the OS?
We upgraded the firmware with latest ucs-c220-huu-1.5.4-3.iso.
Let me share with you the complete BoM of the server:

Cisco UCS VIF path unpinned

Hi,
I have the following scenario, Cisco UCS chassis with 2 Blade B440 placed in slot 5 and 7.
The blade in slot 5 is taking some time but the VIFs get pinned (FI Uplink) after approx 3 min.
as for the server in slot 7 the VIFs using the adapter 2 remains unpinned and even sometimes the "Link State" becomes "Unknown" and after a few seconds it changes to "up" but the "FI Uplink" always remaining unpinned.
Apparently the problem only occurs between the adapter 2 and FI-B
After checking the "IO module 2", I found that the Backplane Port 2/29 is in a failure status.
I changed the server slot from slot 7 to slot 1 and apparently everything was fine.
do you have any suggestions?

Hi,
you are right I have checked the statistics on the FI server port 1/4 and this is the only interface that has
fcs and Rx errors (about 30,000 in 2 days).
I changed the cable but the errors remained.
I even chnaged the IO module, still the same error.
I changed the FI interface to 1/7, I got the same errors on the new interface.
FInally I changed the policy of the IO module to "PortChannel" instead of "None" there is no errors neither on the port channel nor on the interface, this is really weird but after changing the behavior to portchannel, I was unable to reach my servers (neither the ESXI hosat, nor the VMs inside it)
I am really stucked, any suggestions?

Cisco UCS C210 M1 server certified for Unified Communications

Hello:
Our VAR is telling us that HP and Cisco are splitting up. We're an HP shop today and the MCS 7800-H series routers were a perfect fit. Our VAR is now telling us we have to go with the rebranded IBM systems. BUT I would like to avoid the IBM servers. And the Cisco servers look attractive. But I've been unable to determine if the Cisco UCS C210 M1 server is certified for various Unified Communications applications (Communications Manager, Unity, Cisco Emergency Responder, ICM, CVP, etc.).
Has anyone heard of any Unified Communications deployments on UCS hardware?
Thanks,
Ken

Mr. Schroeder:
Thank you for the information. Timing is everything. We'll likely have to order our equipment in May of this year. I'd love to start getting Cisco UCS hardware in. Oh well... maybe next year!

Hello Robert,
Apologies for a delayed response, some days get very hectic.
In CallManager, we only define the SRST reference, and CUCM version and SRST version are independent of each other.
The only thing, which is related and will change with CUCM upgrade is Phone F/w version.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/compat/ccmcompmatr1.pdf
You may just want to check your, phone f/w compatibility with the SRST version running on your ISR G1 Gateways:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps2169/products_device_support_tables_list.html
For Example: SRST version 7.1
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/voicesw/ps6788/vcallcon/ps2169/data_sheet_c78-520521.html
You may want to do some lab testing with CUCM 9.1 and an SRST supported f/w on your phones.
If you decide to run the old Phone/F/w to support the SRST version, you may not be able to take advantage of new features.
Also, you can try and upgrade your phones(Wih CUCM 9.1) and test them with your SRST version.
It should work fine, but from a troubleshooting perspective, TAC may request you to come into a Cisco Supported combination.
Please, let me know if this clarifies your doubt or we can have a quick phone call.

Ask the Expert: Cisco UCS Troubleshooting Boot from SAN with FC and iSCSI

Welcome to this Cisco Support Community Ask the Expert conversation. This is an opportunity to learn and ask questions about Cisco UCS Troubleshooting Boot from SAN with FC and iSCSI with Vishal Mehta and Manuel Velasco.
The current industry trend is to use SAN (FC/FCoE/iSCSI) for booting operating systems instead of using local storage.
Boot from SAN offers many benefits, including:
Server without local storage can run cooler and use the extra space for other components.
Redeployment of servers caused by hardware failures becomes easier with boot from SAN servers.
SAN storage allows the administrator to use storage more efficiently.
Boot from SAN offers reliability because the user can access the boot disk through multiple paths, which protects the disk from being a single point of failure.
Cisco UCS takes away much of the complexity with its service profiles and associated boot policies to make boot from SAN deployment an easy task.
Vishal Mehta is a customer support engineer for Cisco’s Data Center Server Virtualization TAC team based in San Jose, California. He has been working in the TAC for the past three years with a primary focus on data center technologies such as Cisco Nexus 5000, Cisco UCS, Cisco Nexus 1000v, and virtualization. He has presented at Cisco Live in Orlando 2013 and will present at Cisco Live Milan 2014 (BRKCOM-3003, BRKDCT-3444, and LABDCT-2333). He holds a master’s degree from Rutgers University in electrical and computer engineering and has CCIE certification (number 37139) in routing and switching and service provider.
Manuel Velasco is a customer support engineer for Cisco’s Data Center Server Virtualization TAC team based in San Jose, California. He has been working in the TAC for the past three years with a primary focus on data center technologies such as Cisco UCS, Cisco Nexus 1000v, and virtualization. Manuel holds a master’s degree in electrical engineering from California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly) and VMware VCP and CCNA certifications.

Visit this forum often to view responses to your questions and the questions of other Cisco Support Community members.

Hello Evan
Thank you for asking this question. Most common TAC cases that we have seen on Boot-from-SAN failures are due to misconfiguration.
So our methodology is to verify configuration and troubleshoot from server to storage switches to storage array.
Before diving into troubleshooting, make sure there is clear understanding of this topology. This is very vital with any troubleshooting scenario. Know what devices you have and how they are connected, how many paths are connected, Switch/NPV mode and so on.
Always try to troubleshoot one path at a time and verify that the setup is in complaint with the SW/HW interop matrix tested by Cisco.
Step 1: Check at server
a. make sure to have uniform firmware version across all components of UCS
b. Verify if VSAN is created and FC uplinks are configured correctly. VSANs/FCoE-vlan should be unique per fabric
c. Verify at service profile level for configuration of vHBAs - vHBA per Fabric should have unique VSAN number
Note down the WWPN of your vhba. This will be needed in step 2 for zoning on the SAN switch and step 3 for LUN masking on the storage array.
d. verify if Boot Policy of the service profile is configured to Boot From SAN - the Boot Order and its parameters such as Lun ID and WWN are extremely important
e. finally at UCS CLI - verify the flogi of vHBAs (for NPV mode, command is (from nxos) – show npv flogi-table)
Step 2: Check at Storage Switch
a. Verify the mode (by default UCS is in FC end-host mode, so storage switch has to be in NPIV mode; unless UCS is in FC Switch mode)
b. Verify the switch port connecting to UCS is UP as an F-Port and is configured for correct VSAN
c. Check if both the initiator (Server) and the target (Storage) are logged into the fabric switch (command for MDS/N5k - show flogi database vsan X)
d. Once confirmed that initiator and target devices are logged into the fabric, query the name server to see if they have registered themselves correctly. (command - show fcns database vsan X)
e. Most important configuration to check on Storage Switch is the zoning
Zoning is basically access control for our initiator to targets. Most common design is to configure one zone per initiator and target.
Zoning will require you to configure a zone, put that zone into your current zonset, then ACTIVATE it. (command - show zoneset active vsan X)
Step 3: Check at Storage Array
When the Storage array logs into the SAN fabric, it queries the name server to see which devices it can communicate.
LUN masking is crucial step on Storage Array which gives particular host (server) access to specific LUN
Assuming that both the storage and initiator have FLOGI’d into the fabric and the zoning is correct (as per Step 1 & 2)
Following needs to be verified at Storage Array level
a. Are the wwpn of the initiators (vhba of the hosts) visible on the storage array?
b. If above is yes then Is LUN Masking applied?
c. What LUN number is presented to the host - this is the number that we see in Lun ID on the 'Boot Order' of Step 1
Below document has details and troubleshooting outputs:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/servers-unified-computing/ucs-b-series-blade-servers/115764-ucs-san-tshoot-00.html

Cisco UCS C220 MS SFF won't boot past BIOS screen with 2x1.2TB SAS drives installed

We have been running a few of these servers with only a 500GB 6GB SATA 7.2K drive installed with all VM's (Hyper-V) sitting on an attached SAN.
For various reasons we needed some local storage on the server and installed 2 1.2TB SAS drives (10K 2.5"). They hot installed okay but the server had to be brought down to enter the MegaRaid software to configure the RAID.
Unfortunately with the drives installed, the server won't boot past the initial BIOS screen and certainly doesn't get to the RAID screens.
Does anybody have any idea why this would happen? Is there some BIOS update required to support these drives and/or MegaRaid software upgrade?
The servers are up and running at the moment so I can't find the version of the RAID software running.
Thanks
Larry

Hi Lauren,
If you don't have a PCI or a mezzanine based controller and you are using the embedded raid controller you need a chip for the embedded raid controller to support SAS drives. By default the embedded controller only supports SATA drives. See page 9 of the link below
Please let me know if you are not using the embedded controller

Cisco Unified Communications Manager Business Edition

Hi,
As per my understanding this is only one server solution and you can not have more than one server i.e no sub only Pub. Is this correct?
Thanks
Ati

Hi Ati,
You are most correct :) This is is "single server" solution for small to medium sized businesses up to 500 users. It comes packaged with Unity Connection for Voicemail.
Here is a clip;
"Cisco Unified Communications Manager Business Edition is an easy-to-manage solution that combines voice, video, mobility, and messaging on a single server to simplify system administration and reduce hardware and operating expenses. This solution provides cost-effective deployment options for medium-sized organizations with smaller IT staffs that require all the advanced capabilities of Cisco Unified Communications Manager (formerly Cisco Unified CallManager), Cisco Unity Connection, Cisco Unified Mobility (formerly Cisco Unified MobilityManager), and integrated management on a single server to expedite migration to unified communications."
From this good doc;

Cisco Unified Communications Express

I have a brand new router, 3825 and licensing so no worries there. I also have some discs Cisco Unified Communications Express Products and Cisco Unified Contact Center Express/ IP IVR.
Question 1) I am trying to install CME (which I hear is now Unified Communications Express). Do one of these disc have it on it? I have checked the flash of the router and i see no cme. I have the Adv IP Services IOS.
Question 2) What is on those discs.

Hello Adam,
the CME is a feature that comes integrated with you IOS software, and you just need to enable it in case that you would like to configure it and work with it.
Since you have the Adv IP services IOS you should be able to use this voce feature without any issue. In the follow documments you could find first the basic configuration for a CME and CUE and the second one is the admini guide in case that you would like to see some other features.

Derrick,
RFC 3261defines ways to provide increased security for a SIP session.
The following describes areas in SIP that provides security for the protocol
1. Authenticating users.
We need to authenticate a user to ensure that the sender of the message is who he claims to be.
To achieve this SIP uses digest authentication between a UAC, proxy and a UAS. This provides the most basic level of authentication challenge between a client, proxy and a server.
2. Secure SIP signalling
The next area we can secure is SIP signalling itself. For this we use SSL/TLS. This is similar to using https in web browsers. With TLS before our any signalling is exchange X.509 certificates are used create a secure TLS channel. All our SIP messages are then transported within the secure channel.
NB: The digest authentication mentioned above for authenticating a user agent is just authentication. The messages are not protected from reading or modification hence it is recommended that these messages are carried inside a secure TLS channel for better security.
3. Privacy and Identification
Additional security features in SIP provides means where any user can choose to either reveal or conceal his identity.
4.Secure RTP
SIP also provides the ability to secure the media channel. It is not enough to secure signalling while anyone can listen to the media. RFC3830 discusses how the encryption should be done.
5. S/MIME
S/MIME encapsulation is used to protect sip headers making it impossible for any one in between the sender and receiver to modify the sip headers
