Appendix A: Supported IMM Features/Policies
This section provides a list of features that are supported for conversion in the IMM Transition Tool and a policy mapping between Cisco UCS Manager/Central and Intersight.
Note |
If the UCS Central configuration contains VLAN/VSAN aliasing, the IMM Transition Tool will automatically select one of the aliases when performing the conversion of the vNICs/vHBAs. Carefully review the resulting configuration to make sure it is appropriate. |

*1 - Merged with regular VLANs
*2 - No support for PVLAN
*3 - Merged with regular Network Control Policies
*4 - Sessions/HTTP settings are defined in Intersight Settings. Telnet/SSH settings are not supported
*5 - Only supports up to two remote destination servers
*6 - In UCS Manager, it is found under Admin > Communication Management > DNS Management
*7 - Replaced by Storage Policy
*8 - Only Updating Templates - no support for Initial Templates (though cloning can be achieved)
*9 - The placement is statically mapped to PCIe slots, with the following mapping:
-
vCon 1: Slot MLOM
-
vCon 2: Slot PCIe1
-
vCon 3: Slot PCIe2
-
vCon 4: Slot PCIe3
This placement can be manually adjusted as needed after conversion is performed.
*10 - Supported in IMM Transition Tool, Release 1.0.2 and above
Note |
Table containing aliases for aliased VLANs/VSANs are not supported for conversion. |
