Cisco UCS Server Configuration Utility, Release 5.0
Chapter 1 Overview
Hardware Requirements
Note Some LSI RAID controllers take time to complete the operation during RAID configuration. SCU does
not have any control over this issue. As a workaround, you can either recreate the RAID or wait for the
operation to complete.
Hardware Requirements
The following are the minimum hardware requirements for UCS-SCU:
• CD-ROM drive—A USB CD/DVD-ROM drive is required to be able to boot and run the UCS-SCU.
You can also use the virtual media option in the CMC KVM to boot UCS-SCU.
• Mouse—Some functions require a standard mouse (PS/2 or USB) for navigation.
• USB disk on key device—Functions such as saving UCS-SCU logs require a USB disk on key.
• RAM—A minimum of 1 GB RAM. If the available RAM is less than the minimum recommended
value, UCS-SCU will not function properly.
• Network adapter—Some optional functions, such as, downloading the OS drivers from
support.cisco.com, require network access. Any single onboard NIC adapter connection is
supported.
Note Currently UCS-SCU supports only Intel adapters.
• RAID Cards—RAID configuration and OS installation are supported on select controllers.
