Hello,
While installing the new out-of-box Hyperflex cluster,I am getting the following errors during UCSM configuration. So is there any configuration that I am missing ? .
Following are the details:
1. OVA installer version 4.0(2a)
2. UCSM version 4.0(4h)
Error

Hi @SahilKhan8824 ,
For some reason you don't have the CIMC IP address set. A couple of things may cause this
Or it could be just a glitch. If none of the above are obvious, try clicking Retry before pulling things apart.
I hope this helps

Following up on what Chris mentioned, I would start with a simple reboot of the host in question. I have had a few cases where the unconfigured ESXi host instance just wasn't accepting the SOL login attempts, and worked fine after reboot.
Also, have seen some cases where firewall between the installer and actual UCSM/CIMCs was being flagged as "brute force attack" and stalling the install process.
I would manually attempt to SSH into the CIMC/IP address assigned at the service profile level, login with ucsm admin credentials, which should then present you with an ESXi login prompt. Login with ESXi default credentials of root/Cisco123
If that works, then log back out of ESXi, and the SSH connection.
Wait at least 5 minutes before, retrying the installer, as you can only have 1 active SOL session, and they system needs to see that the SOL connection is available.
If you don't even have an IP address assigned at service profile level, then you probably need to open TAC case, and let us take a quick look.

You will probably need to open a TAC case, and they will need to take a look at the installer tech support, for details about what actually caused the deploy failures.
