Product ID Catalog

The Cisco UCS C-Series servers Product ID (PID) Catalog is a set of tunable parameters, strings, and rules. Cisco UCS uses the catalog to update the display and configurability of components such as newly qualified DIMMs and disk drives for servers.

The PID Catalog is embedded in IMC firmware, but at times it is also released as a single image file to make updates easier.

Note

Always upgrade the BIOS, the Cisco IMC and CMC from the HUU ISO. Do not upgrade individual components (only BIOS or only Cisco IMC or CMC), since this could lead to unexpected behavior. If you choose to upgrade BIOS, the Cisco IMC and the CMC individually and not from the HUU ISO, make sure to upgrade both Cisco IMC, BIOS and CMC to the same container release. If the BIOS, CMC and the Cisco IMC versions are from different container releases, it could result in unexpected behavior. Cisco recommends that you use the Update All option from the Host Upgrade Utility to update the firmware versions of Cisco IMC, BIOS, CMC and all other server components (VIC, RAID Controllers, PCI devices, and LOM) together.

Host Upgrade Utility

The Cisco Host Upgrade Utility (HUU) is a tool that upgrades the Cisco UCS C-Series firmware.

The image file for the firmware is embedded in the ISO. The utility displays a menu that allows you to choose which firmware components to upgrade. For more information on this utility see:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps10493/products_user_guide_list.html

For details of firmware files in Cisco Host Upgrade Utility for individual releases, see Cisco UCS C-Series Integrated Management Controller Firmware Files, Release 3.1

Updating the Firmware

Use the Host Upgrade Utility to upgrade the C-Series firmware. Host Upgrade Utility can upgrade the following software components:

BIOS
Cisco IMC
CMC
SIOC
Cisco VIC Adapters
LSI Adapters
LAN on Motherboard Settings
PCIe adapter firmware

Supported Software Features

The following new software features are supported in Release 2.0(13e):

LDAP CA Certificate— Support for LDAP client to validate a directory server certificate against an installed CA certificate or chained CA certificate during an LDAP binding step. This feature is introduced in the event where anyone can duplicate a directory server for user authentication and cause a security breach due to the inability to enter a trusted point or chained certificate into the Cisco IMC for remote user authentication.
Product ID Catalog— Support for PID catalog to be updated independently, without having to update the Cisco IMC or container. You can download a signed PID update package using FTP, TFTP, SFTP, HTTP, and SCP. The product ID catalog is available on Cisco.com.
OOB Management of SAS HBA Pass Through Controllers—Cisco IMC allows Out Of Band management of UCSC-SAS12GHBA, UCSC-PSAS12GHBA SAS HBA controllers on C240 M4 and C220 M4 platforms. UCSC-3X60-HBA controllers supported in UCS C3X60M3 also support the OOB management.
OOB Management of NVMe Based PCIe SSD— Cisco IMC manages various HGST, Intel NVMe based HHHL and 2.5” SSDs.
Setting a Virtual Drive as Transport Ready— Support for setting a virtual drive as Transport Ready, which means you can set a virtual drive in a state where it can be moved from one MegaRAID controller to another. This allows all the pending IOs of the virtual drive to complete their activities, hide the virtual drive from the operating system, flush cache, pause all the background operations, and save the current progress in disk data format, allowing you to move the drive.
Power Management — Effective with this release, this feature is available on the C3260 M4 servers. It supports power characterization of the chassis based on hardware configuration and allows you to configure power profiles using the power capping feature. You can use the power characterization range appropriately for the different power profiles.

The power profiles available on the C3260 M4 servers are automatic, custom, and thermal which can be configured to allocate power budget accordingly.
Selective Power Characterization— Support for running power characterization only on the CPU and DIMM configuration changes. This feature is available only on the C220 M4, C240 M4 and C3260 M4 servers.
Power Save Mode— This allows you to put a hard drive on a power save mode when not in use or is in unassigned state. This feature is available on UCS C3X60 M3 and M4 servers.
Secure Adapter Update— Support to enable or disable this option to ensure only the secure firmware is updated. This feature is available only on the C220 M4, C240 M4, and C460 M4 servers.
SAS Expander Firmware Update— Support to install and activate SAS expander firmware. Effective with this release this feature was available on C220 M4, and C240 M4 servers.
SNMP Engine ID Configuration— Added support for configuring user defined engine ID values. The SNMP engine ID is a unique string used to identify the device for administration purposes.
IO Expander BIOS Tokens— Added new BIOS tokens for IO expander configuration. This feature is available only on the C3260 M4 servers.
Smart Access: Serial—The Smart Access: Serial allows offline configuration of C-series servers using the command line interface (CLI) through serial connection. With this setup, you are not required to connect the Cisco IMC to the network in order to access the command line interface.
Consistent Device Naming (RHEL) — Allows ethernet interfaces to be named consistently in order to effectively manage network connections with server configuration changes.
Self Encrypting Drives (SED)— Cisco IMC supports self encrypting drives (SED). A special hardware in the drives encrypts incoming data and decrypts outgoing data in real-time. This feature is also called Full Disk Encryption (FDE).The data on the drive is encrypted on its way into the drive and decrypted on its way out. However, if you lock the drive, no security key is required to retrieve the data. Effective with this release this feature was available on C240 M4 servers.
NVMe Boot— Boot support for NVMe drives when enabled from BIOS for the C220 M4 and C240 M4 servers. This is available only in the standalone mode.

Important

In order to enhance security, effective with the next major release, support for Transport Layer Security (TLS) versions 1.0 and 1.1 will be removed. Only TLS 1.2 will be supported.

After installation of ESXi in UEFI mode, the OS fails to boot up. The installation completes, but on the subsequent reboot, the server does not boot ESXi OS.

To resolve this issue, complete these steps:

Boot to Shell.
Determine fsxx (xx is where ESX is installed. It will be typically 0 i.e fs0:) This can be verified by using fsxx:\EFI\Boot\BOOTX64.EFI command.

To get the current list of EFI Boot options use, bcfg boot dump command.

Note

Save the last boot number for further use.

Use the following command to add new Boot Option at position LAST_BOOT_NO + 1. Last parameter in quotes can be any description for this new Boot Option. This is displayed during BIOS F6 menu - bcfg boot add LAST_BOOT_NO + 1 fsxx:\EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI "UEFI: ESXi"
Make the newly created Boot Option for ESX as the first by using bcfg boot mv LAST_BOOT_NO + 4 1 command.

Reset the platform by issuing reset command at the shell. Press F6 when BIOS is booting to get into BIOS Boot Selection menu. Verify that newly created Boot Option is displayed. Select this and boot to ESX.

CSCui29979	BBU Charging Status shows either Charging or Discharging all the time. This could lead to confusion to customers as Charging or Discharging indicate that battery is not in optimal state.	Customers should use the BBU Status field to determine if the battery is in optimal state. If the BBU status is optimal, it will indicate a good battery. If the BBU status indicates battery needs replacement, then the BBU is bad and needs to be replaced. Charging Status is working as designed and will always indicate Charging or Discharging because Firmware keeps checking the battery charge and ensures that the charge does not fall below the band gap. It charges the battery when it is in lower limits and once it reaches the upper limit of the band, it will stop charging. There can be leakage current which can discharge the battery and bring it back to lower threshold. When this happens, the firmware initiates charging.	1.5(2)

CSCts37240	The following error message is displayed in some LSI RAID controllers when you navigate to Cisco IMC > Inventory > Storage > Battery Backup Unit . Error: required HW is missing ( i.e Alarm or BBU ) The server did not have BBU installed on it and it should have confirmed the absence of the unit.	None.

Upgrading BIOS and Cisco IMC Firmware

Cisco provides the Cisco Host Upgrade Utility to assist you in upgrading the BIOS, Cisco IMC, CMC LOM, LSI storage controller, and Cisco UCS Virtual Interface Cards firmware to compatible levels. On the C220 M3, C240 M3, C22 M3, and C24 M3 servers, we recommend that you reboot Cisco IMC before performing the Cisco IMC and BIOS firmware update using NIHUU, HUU, web UI, CLI, or XML API.

Note

When upgrading the Cisco IMC firmware for the UCS C-series platforms, ensure that you update using the full image (for example upd-pkg-cXXX-mx-Cisco IMC.full.*.bin).

The correct and compatible firmware levels for your server model are embedded in the utility ISO.

To use this utility, use the Cisco Host Upgrade Utility User Guide which includes the instructions for downloading and using the utility ISO. Select the guide from this URL:
