Hi All,
I was recently introduced into an environment with multiple Cisco UCS servers in production. I intend to setup a management network and have the Cisco UCS server's CIMC port connected into the management network. However, the server never had CIMC configured in the first place.
I have read that:
1. Server needs to be rebooted and BIOS needs to be accessed to configure the CIMC IP address.
2. By default (if I understand correctly), the CIMC is in DHCP.
If I do not want to reboot the server to go into BIOS but instead, can I setup a simple DHCP server on the management network and connect one (1) server into the management network? If I get an IP assignment, HTTP to that IP and change the dynamically assigned IP to a static IP one. Then I continue to do for the remain servers.
Will this work?
