A customer has several existing standalone Cisco UCS C-Series servers that they would like to repurpose and add to their FlexPod Datacenter solution.
Which action should the customer perform on these servers before using UCS Manager?
A . Zero-out the FlexFlash cards on each server.
B . Reboot the CIMC on each server.
C . Remove the hard disks on each server.
D . Reset the CIMC to the factory settings on each server.
Answer: D
Explanation:
On rare occasions, such as an issue with the current running firmware, troubleshooting a server may require you to reset the CIMC to the factory default. When this happens, all user-configurable settings are reset. This procedure is not part of the normal server maintenance. After you reset the CIMC, you are logged off and must log in again. You may also lose connectivity and may need to reconfigure the network settings.
