Working with FI's in UCS Powertool

[Jason Stevens]

Hi all,

I'm trying to figure out which commandlet will return information about the FI's.  I'm looking to retrieve data like the Product Name, PID, and serial number.  I was able to use Get-UCSBlade to get this information for the blades but have yet come across the one for the Fabric Interconnects.  Anybody have a hint in the right direction?

Thanks,

Jason

Hi Jason,

Try using the Get-UcsNetworkElement cmdlet for this data.

Thanks,

Jason

Get-ucsNetworkElement does the trick

PS C:\ucs> Get-UcsNetworkElement  | select dn, vendor, model ,serial, oobifip, operability | Format-Table -AutoSize

Dn           Vendor              Model         Serial      OobIfIp      Operability

--           ------              -----         ------      -------      -----------

sys/switch-A Cisco Systems, Inc. UCS-FI-6248UP SSI15450J64 172.25.206.6 operable

sys/switch-B Cisco Systems, Inc. UCS-FI-6248UP SSI15450F3T 172.25.206.7 operable

Mohit,

Try below cmdlets –

1. For secondary FI

Get-UcsMgmtEntity -Leadership subordinate

2. For primary FI

Get-UcsMgmtEntity -Leadership primary

We also have a script repository available at below link. You can refer that if needed.
