Question #: 61
Topic #: 7
Refer to the exhibit.
A network engineer finds one of the fabric interconnects offline when connecting L1 and L2 ports on both fabric interconnects. Which action resolves the issue?
A.
1. Connect to Fabric Interconnect B.
2. Verify the cluster status and HA election.
3. Validate Fabric Interconnect B hardware issues.
B.
1. Connect to Fabric Interconnect A.
2. Verify the cluster status and HA election.
3. Validate Fabric Interconnect A hardware issues.
C.
1. Connect Fabric Interconnect B and change the role to primary.
2. Reboot Fabric Interconnect B.
3. Add the Fabric Interconnect A as subordinate fabric to the cluster.
D.
1. Connect Fabric Interconnect B and execute “Erase configuration”
2. Reboot Fabric Interconnect B.
3. Add the subordinate Fabric Interconnect to the cluster.
The selected answer, 1. Connect Fabric Interconnect B and execute “Erase configuration” 2. Reboot Fabric Interconnect B. 3. Add the subordinate Fabric Interconnect to the cluster, follows Cisco UCS operational logic. UCS Manager is policy-driven, so troubleshooting must determine whether the problem is caused by hardware discovery, service profile association, firmware activation, boot order, storage presentation, or management integration. The scenario points to fabric interconnect; that is why the selected action fixes the root condition rather than merely restarting the server. The wrong options either affect a different policy, require unnecessary disruption, or assume that physical connectivity alone is sufficient. Cisco documentation for UCS server boot and firmware management stresses that boot policies must include the correct target details, firmware workflows must complete their FSM stages, and hardware changes often require acknowledgement or re-acknowledgement before UCS Manager uses the new inventory. After remediation, the engineer should confirm that the UCS fault is cleared, the server association or discovery state is complete, and the operating system or management service can use the intended path.
