I'm not sure if anyone out there experienced the same issue I had when I first started working with the Cisco's UCS platform but I had a hard time figuring out how to reboot the fabric interconnect. I remember plowing through the documentation manual (CLI_Config_Guide_1_2_1.pdf) while searching for "reboot" and "restart" but couldn't seem to find the command. After spending 20 minutes trying to "google" it without being able to find the command, I gave up and went ahead to pull the power.
It was not until a month afterwards when I finally got to sit down, putty into the fabric, and going through the menus that I was able to find out. Hopefully something seemingly as trivial as this won't stump another person out there.
----------------------------
To reboot the fabric interconnect:
- Putty (SSH or Console Cable) into the fabric interconnect.
- Type "Connect local-mgmt", then enter.
- Type "reboot", then enter.
The commands above will reboot the fabric interconnect.
-----------------------------
Simple wasn't it? I recall seeing this in the manual somewhere but can never find it because searching for "Connect local-mgmt" yields plenty of hits.
-----------Update-----------
I recently sent these instructions to the client and he wasn't sure what Putty was so he called me to ask if he needed to console in with a cable or telnet so I've added (SSH or Console Cable) to step #1.
