FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Cisco UCS service profile and blade replacement questions for operators in Malaysia.

Yes, for generations past Cisco end of support, matched to the blade and adapter generation already in the domain.
Because a service profile describes the hardware it expects. It references adapter capability, firmware level and platform characteristics, and a blade that does not satisfy those is not accepted into the role — even though it is a perfectly good server and physically fits the chassis.
Not for this purpose. Newer is a different specification, and the profile is checking for a match rather than for capability. This is one of the few situations where the ideal replacement is the same generation rather than an improvement on it.
The VIC generation matters as much as the blade. A profile built around one adapter generation may not associate to a blade carrying another, and the adapter is easy to overlook when the blade model looks right.
The same blade generation and the same VIC generation as the failed unit, not the nearest available upgrade. We quote against what the domain already runs rather than against the current catalogue.

The Profile Decides What Counts as a Replacement

A UCS service profile is not simply a configuration applied to whatever hardware is present. It describes the hardware it expects — adapter capability, firmware level, platform characteristics — and it associates only to a blade that satisfies that description. A perfectly good server that fits the chassis can be refused the role.

Newer Is a Different Specification, Not a Better One

This is the part that catches people, because every instinct in hardware replacement says a later generation is a safe substitute. Here the profile is testing for a match rather than for capability, so a newer blade is simply a blade that does not correspond to what was described. It is one of the few cases where the correct replacement is deliberately the same generation.

The Adapter Is Half the Match

The VIC generation matters as much as the blade model and is far easier to overlook, because the blade is what appears on the purchase order. A profile built around one adapter generation may decline a blade carrying another, and the failure appears at association time — during the outage, with the replacement already installed.

Specify Against the Domain, Not the Catalogue

The right specification is the generation the domain already runs, on both blade and adapter, rather than the nearest currently available part. ICD quotes against the installed domain and supplies UCS blades, VIC adapters, fabric hardware and chassis components for generations past Cisco end of support, tested and covered for one to three years.
