  • Page 13: Overview

    The Cisco UCS 5108 server chassis and its components are part of the Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS), which uses the Cisco UCS 5108 server system with the two I/O modules and the Cisco UCS Fabric Interconnects to provide advanced options and capabilities in server and data management. All servers are managed via the GUI or CLI with Cisco UCS Manager.
  • Page 14 CPUs and SAS RAID controllers For smaller solutions, the Cisco UCS 6324 Fabric Interconnect can be used in the I/O slots at the back of the Cisco USC 5108 Chassis. The 6324 Fabric Interconnect is only supported in the UCSB-5108-AC2 and UCSB-5108-DC2 versions of the 5100 Series Chassis.
  • Page 15: Features And Benefits

    This simplicity eliminates the need for dedicated chassis management and blade switches, reduces cabling, and enables the Cisco Unified Computing System to scale to 40 chassis without adding complexity. The Cisco UCS 5108 server chassis is a critical component in delivering the Cisco Unified Computing System benefits of data center simplicity and IT responsiveness.

    Different power supplies are available to work with the AC (UCSB-PSU-2500ACPL or N20-PAC5-2500W) or DC (UCSB-PSU-2500DC48) versions of the chassis. When configured with the Cisco UCS 6324 Fabric Interconnect, only the following power supplies are supported: UCSB-PSU-2500ACDV dual-voltage supply and UCSB-PSU-2500DC48 -48V DC power supply.
  • Page 44: Power Supply Redundancy

    When using Cisco UCS Release 1.3(1) or earlier releases, small configurations that use less than 25000W may be powered up on a single power supply. When using Cisco UCS Release 1.4(1) and later releases, the chassis requires a minimum of 2 power supplies.
  • Page 45: Grid Redundancy

    Adding an additional power supply to either of these configurations will provide an extra level of protection. Cisco UCS Manager turns on the extra power supply in the event of a failure and restores N+1 protection. An n+1 redundant system has either two or three power supplies, which may be in any slot.

    Cabling Considerations for Fabric Port Channels When you configure the links between the Cisco UCS 2200 Series FEX and a Cisco UCS 6200 series fabric interconnect in fabric port channel mode, the available virtual interface namespace (VIF) on the adapter varies depending on where the FEX uplinks are connected to the fabric interconnect ports.
  • Page 71: Proper Fex And Fabric Interconnect Port Connectivity

    If the cabling is asymmetric, the maximum number of VIFs available is the smaller of the two cabling configurations. For more information on the maximum number of VIFs for your Cisco UCS environment, see the Configuration Limits document for your hardware and software configuration.
