Selective Cisco UCS Server Management in Cisco UCS Director
Cisco UCS Director includes a new Server Management feature when you add a Cisco UCS Manager account to a data center. This Server Management feature includes the following options:
•Manage All Servers
•Manage Selected Servers
The default Server Management option is Manage All Servers.
Supported Features
When you choose the Manage Selected Servers option for a Cisco UCS Manager account, Cisco UCS Director conducts the initial inventory collection and then displays all rack-mount and blade servers in a new tab named UCS Discovered Server. This report displays only managed and acknowledged servers, along with the management status of those servers.
A new action has been added to Manage Servers that enables you to add and remove servers from the managed list.
When a server is unmanaged, either through a workflow task or an action, the server is moved to a Transition state, and removed from the UCS Servers report. The server remains in that transition state for 48 hours and then is moved to an Unmanaged state. While the server is in Transition state, it is counted in your license usage.
Note Server license usage includes servers in Managed, Transition, and Decommissioned states.
When you choose the Manage All Servers option for a Cisco UCS Manager account, there is no change in behavior.
Caveats
The following caveats apply to the Server Management option:
•If you change the Server Management option for a Cisco UCS Manager account from Manage All Servers to Manage Selected Servers, Cisco UCS Director moves all servers to the Unmanaged state automatically. You must manually move the selected servers to the Managed state.
•If you change the Server Management option for a Cisco UCS Manager account from Manage Selected Servers to Manage All Servers, Cisco UCS Director moves all servers to the Managed state automatically.
•Service profiles that associated with unmanaged servers are not displayed in Cisco UCS Director. They are displayed only when the server is managed in Cisco UCS Director.
•Server pools in Cisco UCS Director display only managed servers in the pool. For example, if a server pool contains two servers and only one server is managed by Cisco UCS Director, all Server Pool reports and actions on that pool display only one (managed) server. However, the pool size is displayed as two.
•If you use Cisco UCS Manager to associate a service profile with a server pool that has servers that are not managed by Cisco UCS Director, you cannot perform any further tasks on that service profile or server in Cisco UCS Director. You must add a "Manage Server task to the workflows to manage that server.
Installation Notes

Workaround
|
CSCug47996
|
Resizing the datastore displays the "Volume path is not available" error when you try to resize from the Datastore report.
|
Use the "Resize VMware Generic Datastore" orchestration task to perform this operation.
|
CSCug48387
|
If vCenter contains more than one template with the same name in different data centers, it displays one template details in the UI and also saves it in database (which was added recently or changed recently). Because of this situation, VM Provision fails.
|
Avoid creating templates with the same name across different data centers for the same vCenter account.
|
CSCuh18996
|
The VM snapshot current state shows yes for multiple snapshots when the snapshot name is the same and so it cannot find the current state of the VM.
|
None.
|
CSCuh46132
|
Configure Trunk and Update Trunk Action fails for a Cisco Nexus 7000 Series device.
|
Configure Trunk and Update Trunk can be executed using respective tasks.
|
CSCui09244
|
Cisco Nexus 7000 Series: a workflow task fails when the storage VDC is created with empty QoS. The QoS field always expects a value which is not correct.
|
Always choose a QoS input from the drop down list.
|
CSCui12211
|
Rollback is not available for the following tasks: Mount iSCSI LUN, Bringing Disk online and formatting, and Create VM placement path.
|
None.
|
CSCui14034
|
The Create VM Disk action will create the disk where the VM originally placed it. The ability to create VM disk on a Datastore is needed.
|
None.
|
CSCui14497
|
Cisco Nexus 7000 Series VDC: Select a port that is missing an Ethernet port in Remove port from VDC. The first port is the duplicate entry of the existing port.

|
CSCui19131
|
In the UCS Director Fabric Interconnects report, there is a mismatch in values in the available Memory Size that shows in MB and the size that UCS Manager shows in GB.
|
Use the UCS Manager GUI to get the value. The UCS Manager API provides the wrong output.
|
CSCui27399
|
While creating a vfiler there is no option to specify the vfiler root password. The filer gets created successfully. For subsequent operations (such as CIFS setup) when you need to provide the vfiler root password, the administrator has to go to the filer to specify the vfiler password. Expected result: there should be an option to specify the vfiler password while creating the vfiler or setting up the vfiler so that the administrator needs to go to the filer to specify the password.
|
Create vFilers using the setup option available in "Create vFiler using ONTAP" workflow or Use the "Create vFiler setup" workflow to assign a password for an existing vFiler.
|
CSCui29041
|
The assign VLAN to Group task does not list a Cisco Nexus 7000 Series VDC.

|
A user can use the task to complete this operation.
|
CSCui43677
|
Because the administrator vservers are not shown in the report, the cluster management LIF cannot be created, even though there is an option in the action.
|
Cluster management Lies can be created on the cluster manually.
|
