476	In this article, we are providing sample work flows for the private cloud management solution. In our topology, ACI is used for network. We have the placed the BMA in the L3 network. The UCS servers are connected to the leaf of the ACI and storage device is connected with the UCSM FI. We have used the NetApp and VNX storage arrays in this topology. The idea is to give the WF to manage private cloud deployment using the existing UCSD tasks, starting from APIC tenant creation, Server reservation, Bare Metal Provisioning, Creating the Datacenter, Creating Cluster and adding the created host to the cluster. We have used the basic variations in the infra provisioning like SAN Boot and Local Boot.	UCSD Integration Work Flow Examples	MGT

Hi  Orf,

Can we add MX480 juniper device in UCSD and run any task?

[Orf Gelbrich]

You can talk to that device via ssh and execute anything.

Hi Orf,

I created a BMA WF that installs ESXi on a blade

In the end of the WF, I want to add my Mgmt Vlan to the PXE NIC [as Native vlan], and delete the PXE Vlan from it .

When adding the task "Add VLAN to Service Profile", on the "vNICs" input, I want to create user input [gen_text], and write "${CreateServiceProfilefromtemplate_1814.OUTPUT_SP_VNIC_IDENTITY1}"

But, the only input I can choose is some default "MULTI_VLAN_IDENTITY" [see screenshot]which adds the Vlan to all of the service profile's NICs, instead of only to the one I need

How can I get over it, and be that the WF will choose the VNIC1_ID from a previous task ?

thanks in advance,

[Orf Gelbrich]

You may need a task to convert your variable type from one type to anther.  Here is an example: UCSD Convert Variables from one type to another type (SP Identity to SP Name)

Hi Orf,

Can I use 1 BMA for 2 different UCS-Directors ?

[Orf Gelbrich]

No – since the DB/UCSD IP address has to be specified. Which one would you use?

[Ron Baduach]

I already installed a different BMA 6.5

thanks for your reply Orf

[Ron Baduach]

Hi Orf,

I'm running now UCSD 6.6 with BMA 6.5

I'm trying to PXE-UEFI a cisco blade, and the PXE request is getting into the blade, and the ESXi is loading, but, when it comes to the install part, mothing automatically happened... It just stops where the screen told you to press "Enter" and then "F11" , and choose the installation disk and password etc.

why is it happens ?

Can it be because the blade have multiple disks, and the PXE don't know which of them to choose ?

thanks

[Orf Gelbrich]

Did you look at this posting #371

https://communities.cisco.com/docs/DOC-70437

[Saurabh Kothari]

Ron, could you check the boot.cfg / boot-uefi.cfg in your esxi template (BMA - /opt/cnsaroot/templates/<template-name> there are chances that your boot.cfg is not redirecting to the ks.cfg file. The boot,cfg should have the 'pxebooting' option

[Ron Baduach]

Hi,

here is the output of "boot.cfg"

kernelopt=runweasel pxebooting ks=$PXE_KS_URL

and the output of "boot-uefi.cfg"

kernelopt=runweasel pxebooting ks=$PXE_KS_URL

But I didn't took the steps that Orf mentioned, I didn't noticed it before.

If the only way to make it work is like Orf said, so we won't keep with it, because it's too much to do/change for our tiny use with it for now

Hello Orf! 

I'm having problems trying to add a user in UCSD (version 6.6) to a newly created group via automated workflow.  I see #18 on this page, but I don't want to create a new user, I want to add a variable number of existing users (designated by workflow inputs) to a group that has been created using the AddGroup task.

I'm not very familiar with Javascript at all and was hoping you could point me in the right direction.

Is it also possible to access the scripts behind the existing workflows/tasks in UCSD so that I can try and manipulate them as a custom task?  Thanks.

[Orf Gelbrich]

As to cloning task and seeing the actual java – no that is not possible since the code is compiled.

[Orf Gelbrich]

You could provide the users you want to add to the group in a field in a coma separated way

User1,user2,user3,user4

And have this variable be input to the loop task to loop through these users and add them one by one to a group.

[seastwood]

Thanks for the quick response.  I should've been a little clearer.  These users are populated from Active Directory into UCSD.  I can get it to work if I do one at a time (with manual entry - generic text) and I can chain the Modify User task in a workflow to allow for multiple users to be added, however, that makes all of the loginName inputs mandatory.

We're trying to allow the user that is kicking off the workflow to specify the user or users that will have access to the catalog and that number of users is the variable, so that's where the issue with mandatory inputs comes into play.

That's why I asked about the backend javascript...if we could have the code that adds a user to a group (without creating a new user), we could create a custom task with a loop.  Does that make sense?
