Cisco UCS C2. 40 M3 Server Installation and Service Guide Installing the Server Cisco UCS C Series Rack ServersConnecting and Powering On the Server Standalone Mode Note This section describes how to power on the server, assign an IP address, and connect to server management when using the server in standalone mode. To use the server in UCS integration, specific cabling and settings are required. See Installation for Cisco UCS Integration. The server is shipped with these default settings The NIC mode is Shared LOM EXT. Shared LOM EXT mode enables the 1 Gb Ethernet ports and the ports on any installed Cisco virtual interface card VIC to access the Cisco Integrated Management Interface Cisco IMC. If you want to use the 1. Cisco IMC, you can connect to the server and change the NIC mode as described in Step 4 of the following procedure. The NIC redundancy is active active. All Ethernet ports are utilized simultaneously. Configure%20web%20servers.png' alt='Adobe Air Socket Server Java' title='Adobe Air Socket Server Java' />DHCP is enabled. Internet protocol version 4 IPv. Use the following procedure to perform initial setup of the server Step 1 Attach a supplied power cord to each power supply in your server, and then attach the power cord to a grounded AC power outlet. See the Power Specifications for power specifications. Wait for approximately two minutes to let the server boot in standby power during the first bootup. You can verify power status by looking at the Power Status LED see Figure 1 1 OffThere is no AC power present in the server. AmberThe server is in standby power mode. No one wants to buy a 500 hobby drone only to discover theyre a bad pilot, especially considering how one bad twist or crash can leave your investment in pieces. Its a bad day to breathe in a city. As I write this post, there are air quality alerts in D. C., NYC, Louisville, Columbus, Sacramento, Birmingham, Pittsburgh, and. Adobe Air Socket Server ProgrammingPower is supplied only to the CIMC and some motherboard functions. GreenThe server is in main power mode. Power is supplied to all server components. Note During bootup, the server beeps once for each USB device that is attached to the server. Even if there are no external USB devices attached, there is a short beep for each virtual USB device such as a virtual floppy drive, CDDVD drive, keyboard, or mouse. A beep is also emitted if a USB device is hot plugged or hot unplugged during BIOS power on self test POST, or while you are accessing the BIOS Setup utility or the EFI shell. Step 2 Connect a USB keyboard and VGA monitor by using the supplied KVM cable connected to the KVM connector on the front panel see Figure 1 1. Note Alternatively, you can use the VGA and USB ports on the rear panel. However, you cannot use the front panel VGA and the rear panel VGA at the same time. If you are connected to one VGA connector and you then connect a video device to the other connector, the first VGA connector is disabled. Step 3 Open the Cisco IMC Configuration Utility a. Press the Power button to boot the server. Watch for the prompt to press F8. During bootup, press F8 when prompted to open the Cisco IMC Configuration Utility. Note the differences between versions of Cisco IMC firmware In Cisco IMC 2. F1 or F2 see Figure 2 6 for sample windows. The IPv. 4 and IPv. DDNS are supported. You can also define a host name and a DDNS domain. In Cisco IMC earlier than release 2. Only the IPv. 4 protocol is supported. DDNS is not supported. Figure 2 6 Cisco IMC Configuration Utility Window 1 and Window 2 Cisco IMC 2. LaterStep 4. Set NIC mode and NIC redundancy a. Set the NIC mode to your choice for which ports to use to access the CIMC for server management see Figure 1 3 for identification of the ports Shared LOM EXT defaultThis is shared LOM extended mode. This is the factory default setting, along with Active active NIC redundancy and DHCP enabled. With this mode, the shared LOM and Cisco Card interfaces are both enabled. In this mode, DHCP replies are returned to both the shared LOM ports and the Cisco card ports. If the system determines that the Cisco card connection is not getting its IP address from a Cisco UCS Manager system because the server is in standalone mode, further DHCP requests from the Cisco card are disabled.

DedicatedThe dedicated management port is used to access the CIMC. You must select a NIC redundancy and IP setting. Shared LOMThe 1 Gb Ethernet ports are used to access the CIMC. You must select a NIC redundancy and IP setting. Cisco CardThe ports on an installed Cisco UCS virtual interface card VIC are used to access the CIMC. You must select a NIC redundancy and IP setting. Note The Cisco Card NIC mode is currently supported only with a Cisco UCS VIC that is installed in PCIe slot 2. See also Special Considerations for Cisco UCS Virtual Interface Cards. Use this utility to change the NIC redundancy to your preference. This server has three possible NIC redundancy settings NoneThe Ethernet ports operate independently and do not fail over if there is a problem. Active standbyIf an active Ethernet port fails, traffic fails over to a standby port. Active activeAll Ethernet ports are utilized simultaneously. See NIC Modes and NIC Redundancy Settings for more information. Step 5 Choose whether to enable DHCP for dynamic network settings, or to enter static network settings. Note Before you enable DHCP, your DHCP server must be preconfigured with the range of MAC addresses for this server. The MAC address is printed on a label on the rear of the server. This server has a range of six MAC addresses assigned to the Cisco IMC. The MAC address printed on the label is the beginning of the range of six contiguous MAC addresses. Note In Cisco IMC 2. IPv. 4 or IPv. 6 IP addresses by checking either the IPv. IPv. 6 check box. The static IPv. 4 and IPv. The Cisco IMC IP address. The prefixsubnet. For IPv. 6, valid values are 11. For IPv. 6, if you do not know the gateway, you can set it as none by typing two colons. The preferred DNS server address. For IPv. 6, you can set this as none by typing two colons. Step 6 Optional Use this utility to make VLAN settings. Step 7 Continue with the next action based on which release of Cisco IMC your server is running Cisco IMC earlier than release 2. Skip to Step 1. 4. Cisco IMC 2. 01 and laterPress F1 to go to the second settings window, then continue with the next step. From the second window, you can press F2 to switch back to the first window. Step 8 Optional Set a host name for the server. Step 9 Optional Enable dynamic DNS and set a dynamic DNS DDNS domain. Step 1. 0 Optional If you select the Factory Default check box, the server will be set back to the factory defaults. Step 1. 1 Optional Set a default user password. Step 1. 2 Optional Enable auto negotiation of port settings or set the port speed and duplex mode manually. Note Auto negotiation is applicable only when you use the Dedicated NIC mode. Auto negotiation sets the port speed and duplex mode automatically based on the switch port to which the server is connected. If you disable auto negotiation, you must set the port speed and duplex mode manually. Step 1. 3 Optional Reset port profiles and the port name. Step 1. 4Press F5 to refresh the settings you made. You might have to wait about 4. Network settings configured is displayed before you reboot the server in the next step. Step 1. 5 Press F1. Note If you chose to enable DHCP, the dynamically assigned IP and MAC addresses are displayed on the console screen during bootup. Step 1. 6 Connect to the CIMC for server management. Connect Ethernet cables from your LAN to the server by using the ports that you selected by your NIC Mode setting in Step 4.
