NOTE: From UCS PE 2.2(1bPE1) onwards, UCS PE supports uploading the B-Series and C-Series server firmware bundles. Because of the large file sizes of the firmware bundles, UCS PE only supports uploading of only the stripped-down versions (attached to this document), which includes only the firmware metadata but not the actual firmware itself in the binaries. The stripped-down version of the firwmare bundles which contain metadata only of the B-series and C-series server firmware is reduced to approximately 50 kB in size.

We have never tested QEMU-KVM for UCSPE. Only VMware / Hyper-V are tested / supported today.

What is the XML command(s) required to create a vMedia policy and mount a vMedia using the XML API?
I have seen multiple XMLs but none work. Does anyone know where I can get the documentation with the required information as the document I have for the XML API does not contain such information? very much appreciated

Anyone still having issues with the network error when downloading this? I get to around 100MB and it fails. I have tried multiple Internet connections with the same result. Thanks!
