This is the first policy we need to configure so that the UCS chassis is detected by the UCSM software. The Following are the steps to configure this policy:
- Log in to the UCSM screen.
- Click on the Equipment tab in the navigation pane.
- Select Policies from the work pane and click on Global Policies.
- In the Chassis/FEX Discovery Policy area of the work pane, from the Action drop-down menu, select the option with the number of connections that is equal to or less than the actual number of physical connections from IOM/FEX of chassis to the FIs.
- In the Link Grouping Preference, select the port-channel for bundling the links between Fabric Interconnect and chassis.
- Click on OK.
