200-150 · Question #212

Refer to the exhibit. Cisco UCS Manager generates a Call Home fault report. Which action do you take to resolve the issue?

The correct answer is D. Adjust the chassis temperature threshold to a higher setting. When a UCS Manager Call Home fault reports a temperature threshold violation but hardware is functioning normally, the configured threshold value may be set too low and needs to be raised.

Refer to the exhibit. Cisco UCS Manager generates a Call Home fault report. Which action do you take to resolve the issue?

Options

  • AVerify that air flows through the chassis correctly

Why each option

When a UCS Manager Call Home fault reports a temperature threshold violation but hardware is functioning normally, the configured threshold value may be set too low and needs to be raised.

AVerify that air flows through the chassis correctly

Verifying airflow addresses a physical cooling deficiency, which is not the cause of a threshold misconfiguration fault indicated by Call Home.

BRemove the equipment that generates excessive heat near the top of the rack

Removing heat-generating equipment addresses an environmental thermal problem, not a software threshold setting that is incorrectly configured.

CEnsure that power cables are connected to the fan assemblies of the UCS

UCS fan assemblies receive power through the chassis backplane, not separate power cables, and this action does not address a temperature threshold alert.

DAdjust the chassis temperature threshold to a higher settingCorrect

UCS Manager allows administrators to configure chassis temperature thresholds that trigger Call Home alerts. If the configured threshold is lower than the normal operating temperature, a fault is generated even when no real thermal problem exists. Adjusting the threshold to a higher, appropriate value resolves this misconfiguration-driven fault without requiring any physical intervention.
