Hello Guys, @balaji.bandi  @Roger Kallberg  @Nithin Eluvathingal  @Leonardo Santana  @Chris Deren  @Richard Burts  @Rob Ingram 

My client is looking into buying this Product and i have to deploy this. I never worked on Cisco UCS. I have questions:

1. Is it one single physical Box? How it will provide redundancy ?

2. As it has license for VMW-VS6-HYPPLS-K9, does that means it has its cisco hypervisor just like Vmware esxi ?

3. Can we install Vmware esxi on it ?

4. How we can migrate VMS from Vmware esxi servers or vice-versa?

5. is there any why this product can provide redundancy with Vmware esxi servers?

6. Can we connect additional SAN box with it?

Any other details which i need to know, please share.

Thanks

I STRONGLY suggest that this task is performed by a reputable consultant with experience on Cisco BE/UCS or a local Cisco Partner WITH voice specializations to make sure it's deployed properly, and with the best practices to avoid turning it into a not supported deployment, or that later down the line requires a costly redesign due to improper deployment/configuration.

Be6k Comes with Vmware preinstalled. I have attached two links one for Be6K data sheet and another SRND. go through it and understand the product.
