Explanation

CIMC (Cisco Integrated Management Controller) is the management interface for Cisco UCS C-Series servers, allowing out-of-band management. If a "Discovery Failed" error occurs and only the data connection is established, it indicates that the management connection (required for server discovery and management) is not properly set up. To resolve this issue, you need to connect the CIMC port on the server to the fabric interconnect, ensuring that the server can be fully managed by the UCS Manager via the fabric interconnect.
