- A . Connect to the NX-OS shell via the CLI and run the show npv flogi-table command.
- B . SSH to the MDS 9124 and run the show flogi database command.
- C . Validate the boot target WWPN and LUN ID in the service profile.
- D . Validate the correct source WWPN in the service profile vHBA definition.
- E . Validate zoning for your WWPN on the Cisco MDS 9124.
- F . Validate that the boot order indicates the vHBA as the first device.
- G . Ensure LUN masking is correctly configured on the storage controller.

You are troubleshooting an FCoE boot issue on a Cisco UCS C220 M3 server with a VIC 1225 CNA.
Which two pieces of information can you directly infer from the output of the show zone active command below? (Choose two.)
zone name Server_1-to-Storage vsan 11
pwwn 50:06:01:60:3b:a0:08:9f [Storage]
* fcid 0x3b000b [pwwn 20:00:00:25:b5:04:0a:02] [C22_Server]
- A . The storage controller is not logged into the fabric.
- B . The server is not logged into the fabric.
- C . Only the storage controller is logged into the fabric.
- D . Only the server is logged into the fabric.
- E . The initiator and target cannot communicate because they are on the wrong VSAN.
- F . The WWPN of the storage controller is mistyped.
- G . The initiator and target cannot communicate because the zone name does not match the server name (C22_Server).
Which statement is true with respect to resetting a forgotten Cisco IMC admin password on a Cisco UCS C-Series rack-mount server?
- A . Download the Cisco IMC password reset utility ISO file from Cisco.com and boot from virtual media. The server will boot the Linux Live CD and reset the password to ‘password’.
- B . Download the Cisco IMC password reset EFI plugin file from Cisco.com to a USB flash drive and boot to the EFI shell. The startup.nsh file will auto-load and reset the password to ‘password’.
- C . Shut down the server and remove all power supplies for 3 minutes to allow the password capacitor to discharge. Use the default password ‘password’ to log back in.
- D . Shut down the server and remove all power cords. Open the case and short the jumper specified in the model-specific Cisco UCS C-Series Server Installation and Service Guide.
