IN UCS how can I reboot the chassis only  or shut is down ???

Hi Mohammad,

The only option to do so if by pulling the power cables out.

Before shutting or power re-cycling the chassis, remember to shut down the OS running on all the blades.

Also if you have any major activities on the system, taking a full back and a configuration backup will be a good idea.

Thanks!

I have proplem in connetivity to the external world , I make the config as mentioed in the book, and evry service profile created okay.

but there is error in the USCM about IOM and the adapter link down ,m I dot know why , all are okay , I have singel fabric A, and I connect

IOM 1 (left ) to Fabric A by two cables ,for server links , the ulinks are configure same vlan for lan and vsam for MDS , and pin group too.

I see IOM 2 (right) gace inaccibility proplems and I could not connect to same fabric A, \i notice amper lights on both IOM. ??

\i try to reboot the server but the adapte 1/1/1 still said link down.  ?? any help

Did you try connecting the second IOM to the same FI at any point as you are seeing IOM 2 on chassis connected to only one FI? If so was the conectivity from the balde working before that?

Since I see nothing major running on the chassis, can you remove the chassis and re-add it back to the UCSM. Also make sure before you reconnect that you have cables only from one IOM going to the chassis.

thanks for the reply the system is new installation and nothing online it is a demo.

yes I try to connect the second after intial discovery and before doing any thig on blades , I try to acknoledge but it forbidden me to do so I just return the cable to the original IOM .

I will try your suggestion tomorw , and shall I use the two cables from IOM 1 on the left to the FBI A. shall the GP of FBI A be 2 not one .

the procedure for remove just remove or decomession the recomessioning. ??

thanks so much for the replay

Here is how you can Deomm:

1) Make sure you remove thr profiles from the blade.

2) Select ths chassis# in the equipment tab -> Under the genreal tab -> Choose the option for Decommission Chassis

3) Wait for about 10-15 minutes for it to complete

4) To discover it again:

          i) First make sure the cables are conencted properly, i.e. only from IOM A to FI-A and the number of cables are same or more then the links specified in the chassis discovery policy,

          ii) Select the Chassis OU under the equipment -> Select the "Decommissined" tab from the work pannel. You'll find the chassis which you removed, you can add it back from there.

I am not sure, what you exactly meant by this : "shall  the GP of FBI A be 2 not one"??
