The Compute tab provides information about the UCS servers in the Converged System and their resources. There can be up to four tabs under computer including server profiles, fabric interconnects, chassis, and fabric extenders (FEX).

Server Profiles – Provides number of Cisco UCS servers aggregated by server type and the number of UCS blade and rackmount servers. Also displays server profile information including profile name, number of servers in each profile, type of UCS server, and software version running on the server. The details of each profile can be opened and displays information in the following tabs: Summary and Servers.

• Summary – Displays hardware and software information about the profile including the operating system, storage, and MLOMs and mezzanines.
• Servers – Displays the location, serial number, hostname, and CPU information for each server in the server profile.

Fabric Interconnects – Provides the number of each type of fabric interconnect switch and the number and type of each of UCS server. Also displays a list of FI switches including the switch name, model number, fabric connected to the FI, UCS manager version of the FI and the FI serial number. The details of each FI switch can be opened and displays information in the following tabs: Summary, Configuration, Ports, and Hardware.

• Summary – Displays versions of Cisco switch operating system and UCS software running on the FI switch.
• Configuration – Displays number of ports for each role, including server, LAN, and SAN uplink ports. Also displays LAN and FC aggregate bandwidth for LAN and SAN ports, respectively.
• Ports – Displays port information including connections, port speed, and port role. The user can filter the port list.
• Hardware – Displays hardware information about FI switch including number of fan bays, number of fans and number of power supplies.

Chassis – Displays information about the UCS Chassis including the number of each type of UCS Blade servers and the number of used and available slots in the chassis. Also displays high-level chassis information including the UCS domain, chassis name, and serial number. The details of the chassis can be opened and displays information in the following tabs: IOMs and Hardware.

• IOMs - Displays the chassis model, serial number, number of active links, aggregated bandwidth, and firmware version for each IOM.
• Hardware – Displays number of fans, fan bays, and power supplies for the chassis.

Fabric Extenders – Displays the number of each type of UCS server connected to the FEX. Also displays high-level information about the FEX switches including UCS domain name, FEX name, model number, the fabric interconnect to which the FEX is connected and the FEX serial number. The details of each FEX can be opened and displays information in the following tabs: Configuration, Ports, and Hardware.

• Configuration – Displays number of ports connected to UCS servers and uplinks as well as the uplink bandwidth and aggregate bandwidth for each fabric.
• Ports – Displays port information including connections, port speed, and port role. The user can filter by port role to see only those ports connected to servers or FI uplinks.
• Hardware – Displays hardware information for each FEX including name, product ID, serial number, and software version running on the FEX. Hardware Summary provides number of fans and power supplies for the FEX.

The following shows an example of the Server Profiles tab under Compute.

Storage

The Storage tab provides information about each storage array. Configuration and hardware information is provided for each storage array; additional information will differ depending on the array type.

• Configuration – Listing of software versions, firmware versions, and capacity information.
• Hardware – Listing of drive enclosures and disks.

Networking

The Networking tab provides information about the network switches in the system including role, name, model, software version, and serial number.

Opening the details about each switch provides the following tabs: Overview, Ports, and Hardware.

• Overview – shows port breakout utilization and port usage
• Ports – shows port, port speed and connected to device
• Hardware – summary of fans, fan bays, power supplies, and power supply bays

Virtualization

The Virtualization tab provides information about each VMware vCenter in the Converged System. Summary level information at the top of this view includes number of clusters, hosts, and datastores associated with the vCenter server. There are two tabs under Virtualization: Summary and Clusters.

Summary – vCenter Configuration information including name of the vCenter server, hostname, vCenter version, and workload type (AMP or Production).

Clusters – Name of the cluster, name of the vCenter managing the cluster and the data center name. The details of each cluster can be opened and displays information in the following three tabs: Summary, Hosts, and Datastores.

• Summary – Summary level information for the cluster and the HA or DRS configuration.
• Hosts – Listing of ESXi hosts that make up the cluster including ESXi version, Ethernet version, Fibre Channel version, and server type.
• Datastores – Listing of associated datastores for the cluster including datastore name, total capacity, and free capacity.

Management

The Management tab provides information about the AMP and is divided into the following tabs: Server Profiles, Storage, Virtualization Summary, and Workload.

Server Profiles – Includes name of the server profile, number of UCS servers in the server profile, model of UCS servers and firmware version of each UCS Blade server. The details of each profile can be opened and displays information in the following tabs: Summary and Servers.

• Summary – Hardware and software information about the server profile including the operating environment, storage, and MLOMs and mezzanines.
• Servers – Displays the serial number, hostname, and memory for each server in the server profile.

Storage – Information about the storage for the AMP including the name, model, and operating system. The details of each storage system can be opened and displays information in the following tabs: Configuration and Hardware.

• Configuration – Displays firmware and total and free capacity.
• Hardware – Displays number of drive enclosures and disks.

Virtualization Summary – Virtualization information about the AMP including vCenter configuration and virtual resources.

Workload – Provides virtual machine information about the AMP including VM name, ESXi host, VM operating system, and the running state of the VM.
