Upgrading from a Cisco UCS 6248 UP Fabric Interconnect to a Cisco UCS 6296
UP Fabric Interconnect
Follow these steps to migrate from a Cisco UCS 6248 UP fabric interconnect to a Cisco UCS 6296 UP fabric
interconnect.
Before you begin
Ensure that the Cisco UCS 6248 UP fabric interconnect and the Cisco UCS 6296 UP fabric interconnect
are running the same version of firmware and UCS Manager system software.
Make a detailed record of the cabling between FEXes and fabric interconnects. You must preserve the
physical port mapping to maintain the server pinning already configured and to minimize downtime.
As a best practice, perform a Full State backup and All Configuration backup before performing the
upgrade. For information about these types of backups and detailed instructions on how to perform them
from Cisco UCS Manager, see the Backup and Restore section in the Cisco UCS Manager Administration
Management Guide.
From Cisco UCS Manager, execute the show tech support command and save the output to a file.
Verify that failover is enabled on all the vNICs and vHBAs as necessary.
Look at all the critical Cisco UCS Manager faults and ensure that they are expected. Correct the faults
if needed. Be prepared to compare the list of faults the any faults that are present following the migration.
They should be the same as before the migration.
