The correct answer is B. Upgrade UCS Domain ?to 4.0(4)A. The issue arises because UCS Domain B is running a lower version of UCS Manager (3.1(3)A), while the blade's VIC 1440 and firmware version is 4.0(4)B, which is incompatible with the older UCS version in Domain B.

Question

An engineer must migrate a blade from UCS Domain A to UCS Domain B. The environment has these configurations:

  • B200 M5 contains a VIC 1440 that runs 4.0(4)B.
  • UCS Domain A is a Cisco UCS Fabric Interconnect 6248UP that runs

4.0(4)A.

  • UCS Domain B is a Cisco UCS Fabric Interconnect 6296UP that runs 3.1

(3)A.

  • Both domains use a Cisco UCS 5108 Chassis with 2208 IOM.

When the engineer inserts the blade into UCS Domain B, it fails to be discovered by Cisco UCS Manager. Which action resolves the issue?

Options

  • AReplace VIC 1440 with VIC 1340.
  • BUpgrade UCS Domain ?to 4.0(4)A.

Explanation

The issue arises because UCS Domain B is running a lower version of UCS Manager (3.1(3)A), while the blade's VIC 1440 and firmware version is 4.0(4)B, which is incompatible with the older UCS version in Domain B. To resolve this, you need to upgrade UCS Domain B to version 4.0(4)A, so that it is compatible with the firmware and hardware (VIC 1440) on the B200 M5 blade.
