This issue occurs when you apply the bios policy to a Cisco UCS C245 M8 server with the SNP Memory Coverge bios token set to Custom and the SNP Memory Size to Cover in MB is set to 0.

Cisco UCS Manager sets the SNP Memory Size to Cover in MB to its default value of 8192 MB for the Cisco UCS C245 M8 server.

You can set the SNP Memory Size to Cover in MB to any supported value other than 0 in Cisco UCS Central.

When registering a Cisco UCS domain immediately after installation, you may see one of the following issues:

• After installing Cisco UCS Central on RHEL 7.2 KVM, domain registration fails.

• After installing Cisco UCS Central on VMware using the ISO image, domain registration may fail due to a time sync issue between Cisco UCS Manager and Cisco UCS Central.

If this issue occurs, regenerate the certificate manually from the CLI in Cisco UCS Central using the following commands:

# connect policy-mgr
# scope org
# scope device-profile
# scope security
# scope keyring default
# set regenerate yes
# commit-buffer

Excluding components from the host firmware package policy is supported in Cisco UCS Manager release 2.2.7 and above. When excluding components, you should be aware of the following:

• The global-default host firmware package policy includes all components, but if you create a new custom host firmware package policy, the local disk component is automatically excluded.

• Host firmware package policies created in Cisco UCS Central 1.3 or previous do not support excluding components. These policies are not changed when you upgrade to Cisco UCS Central release 1.5.

• If you create your own custom host firmware package policy with excluded components, including the local disk component that is excluded by default, you cannot include that host firmware package policy in a service profile associated with a server running a Cisco UCS Manager version prior to 2.2.7. If you do, you will see the following error during service profile association:

  ucs domain does not have the matching server capabilities for this service-profile

If you have issues with your custom host firmware package policies that include excluded components, you can either remove all excluded components in the host firmware package policy, or upgrade your version of Cisco UCS Manager to release 2.2.7 or above.

When Cisco UCS-FI-6536 is registered to Cisco UCS Central and FC breakout ports are configured in Cisco UCS Manager, the FC aggregate ports in Cisco UCS Central display the value as 0.

This is because FC breakout is not supported in Cisco UCS Central 2.0.1(r) release.

In Cisco UCS Manager, if the port 33 is configured as FC breakout port, then in Cisco UCS Central, the FC breakout port displays the following values:

0/1, 0/2, 0/3 and 0/4

Actual values that the FC breakout port must display in Cisco UCS Central:

33/1, 33/2, 33/3, 33/4

There are no known workarounds.

CSCwe21986

FC breakout for Cisco UCS-FI-6536 is not supported in Cisco UCS Central 2.0.1(r) release.

While importing Cisco UCS A bundle, Cisco UCS Central might display the following files:

• ucs-2200-6300.4.1.3g.bin

• ucs-2300-6300.4.1.3g.bin

• ucs-6300-ucs-manager-k9.4.1.3h.bin

• ucs-6300-k9-system.5.0.3.N2.4.13g.bin

The missing file:

ucs-6300-k9-kickstart.5.0.3.N2.4.12b.bin

This issue occurs while using Cisco UCS Central to upgrade the Cisco UCS Manager domain.

Upgrade manually using Cisco UCS Manager.

This issue occurs when Cisco UCS B-series or C-series package is uploaded to Cisco UCS Central. And Cisco UCS Central fails to extract the Cisco UCS M6 BIOS image.

This issue occurs when either the package uploaded is from a local file or downloaded from Cisco.com.

• Upload the Cisco UCS B-series or C-series 4.2(x) bundle directly to Cisco UCS Manager.

• Create a new global Host Firmware Package in UCS Central and apply it to the server.
