Cisco UCS Domains and Cisco UCS Central
Cisco UCS Central provides centralized management capabilities to multiple Cisco UCS domains across one or more data centers. Cisco UCS Central works with Cisco UCS Manager to provide a scalable management solution for a growing Cisco UCS environment.
Cisco UCS Central does not reduce or change any local management capabilities of Cisco UCS Manager, such as its API. This allows you to continue using Cisco UCS Manager the same way you did before Cisco UCS Central. This also allows all existing third party integrations to continue to operate without change.
Registering Cisco UCS Domains
To manage Cisco UCS Manager through Cisco UCS Central, you must register the Cisco UCS domains in Cisco UCS Central. You can register a Cisco UCS domain as a part of a domain group or as an ungrouped domain. When you have a domain group, all registered domains in the domain group can share common policies and other configurations.
You can use a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) or IP address to register Cisco UCS domains in Cisco UCS Central.
 Note | During the initial registration process with Cisco UCS Central, all of the active Cisco UCS Manager GUI sessions are terminated. |
Before registering a domain in Cisco UCS Central, do the following:
-
Configure an NTP server and the correct time zone in both Cisco UCS Manager and Cisco UCS Central to ensure that they are in sync. If the time and date in the Cisco UCS domain and Cisco UCS Central are out of sync, the registration might fail.
-
Obtain the hostname or IP address of Cisco UCS Central. You cannot use the same hostname for both Cisco UCS Central and Cisco UCS Manager. For standalone mode, use individual VM IP address. If you plan to setup in cluster mode, use virtual IP address.
Note
We recommend that you always register Cisco UCS domains using a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN).
-
Obtain the shared secret that you configured when you deployed Cisco UCS Central.
 Warning | You must upgrade to Cisco UCS Manager Release 2.1(2) or greater before registering with Cisco UCS Central. If you try to register earlier versions of Cisco UCS Manager, the registration will fail. |
Registering a Cisco UCS Domain with the CLI
You can register a Cisco UCS Manager domain to any Cisco UCS Central system. However you can only register the Cisco UCS Manager domain to one Cisco UCS Central system at a time.
The following example shows how to register a Cisco UCS Manager domain with Cisco UCS Central:
UCSC# connect resource-mgr UCSC(resource-mgr)# scope system UCSC(resource-mgr) /system # create policy-control-ep 10.193.01.01 admin UCSC(resource-mgr) /system # Domain Admin Password: UCSC(resource-mgr) /system/policy-control-ep* # UCSC(resource-mgr) /system/policy-control-ep # set srcaddrfmt ipv4 UCSC(resource-mgr) /system/policy-control-ep # commit-buffer UCSC(resource-mgr) /system/policy-control-ep # show detail hostname or ip address: 10.193.190.130 Registration Status: Registered Cleanup Mode: Localize Global Current Task:
Unregistering a Cisco UCS Domain with the CLI
 Caution | If you want to unregister any registered Cisco UCS domain in a production system, contact Cisco Technical Support. |
When you unregister a Cisco UCS domain from Cisco UCS Central:
-
You can no longer manage the service profiles, policies and other configuration for the Cisco UCS Domain from Cisco UCS Central
-
All global service profiles and policies become local and continue to operate as local entities. When you re-register the domain, the service profiles and polices still remain local.
| Command or Action | Purpose | |
|---|---|---|
| Step 1 | UCSC# connect resource-mgr |
Enters resource manager mode. |
| Step 2 | UCSC(resource-mgr) # scope system |
Enters into the system. |
| Step 3 | UCSC(resource-mgr) /system # scope policy-control-ep UCSM domain IP address |
Creates a policy control for the UCSM domain. |
| Step 4 | UCSC(resource-mgr) /system/policy-control-ep # set actionevent unregister |
Prepares to unregister the domain. |
| Step 5 | UCSC(resource-mgr) /system/policy-control-ep # commit-buffer |
Commits the transaction to the system and unregisters the Cisco UCS Manager domain from Cisco UCS Central. |
The following example shows how to unregister a Cisco UCS Manager domain with Cisco UCS Central:
UCSC# connect resource-mgr UCSC(resource-mgr)# scope system UCSC(resource-mgr) /system # scope policy-control-ep 10.193.01.01 admin UCSC(resource-mgr) /system/policy-control-ep # set actionevent unregister UCSC(resource-mgr) /system/policy-control-ep # commit-buffer UCSC(resource-mgr) /system/policy-control-ep # show detail hostname or ip address: 10.193.190.130 Registration Status: Failed Cleanup Mode: Localize Global Current Task:
Domains and Domain Groups
When you register a Cisco UCS Manager instance in Cisco UCS Central, that instance becomes an ungrouped domain in Cisco UCS Central. You must assign this domain to a domain group to start managing this domain using global policies in Cisco UCS Central.
Cisco UCS Central creates a hierarchy of Cisco UCS domain groups for managing multiple Cisco UCS domains.
-
Domain Group— A group that contains multiple Cisco UCS domains. You can group similar Cisco UCS domains under one domain group for simpler management.
- Ungrouped Domains—When a new Cisco UCS domain is registered in Cisco UCS Central, it is added to the ungrouped domains. You can assign the ungrouped domain to any domain group.
If you have created a domain group policy, and a new registered Cisco UCS domain meets the qualifiers defined in the policy, it is automatically be placed under the domain group specified in the policy. If not, it is placed in the ungrouped domains category until the domain group is assigned to a domain group.
You can only assign each Cisco UCS domain to one domain group. You can assign or reassign membership of the Cisco UCS domains at any time. When you assign a Cisco UCS domain to a domain group, the Cisco UCS domain automatically inherits all management policies specified for the domain group.
Before adding a Cisco UCS domain to a domain group, make sure to change the policy resolution controls to local in the Cisco UCS domain. This avoids accidentally overwriting service profiles and maintenance policies specific to that Cisco UCS domain. Even when you have enabled auto discovery for the Cisco UCS domains, enabling local policy resolution protects the Cisco UCS domain from accidentally overwriting policies.

Domain Group Qualification Policy
Domain group qualification policy enables you to automatically place new Cisco UCS domains under domain groups. You can create qualifiers based on Owner, Site and IP Address of various Cisco UCS domains based on your management requirements. When you register a new Cisco UCS domain, Cisco UCS Central analyses the domain based on the pre defined qualifiers in the domain group qualification policy and places the domain under a specific domain group for management.
Creating a Domain Group Policy

|---|---|---|
| Step 1 | UCSC# connect policy-mgr |
Enters policy manager mode. |
| Step 2 | UCSC(policy-mgr) # scope org org-name |

Policies in Cisco UCS Central and Cisco UCS Domains
You can create and manage global policies in Cisco UCS Central and include them in service profiles or service profile templates for one or more Cisco UCS domains. The service profiles and service profile templates that include global policies can be either of the following:
-
Local service profiles or service profile templates that are created and managed by Cisco UCS Manager in one Cisco UCS domain. You can only associate local service profiles with servers in that domain. When you include a global policy in a local service profile, Cisco UCS Manager makes a local read-only copy of that policy.
-
Global service profiles or service profile templates that are created and managed by Cisco UCS Central. You can associate global service profiles with servers in one or more registered Cisco UCS domains.
You can only make changes to global policies in Cisco UCS Central. Those changes affect all service profiles and service profile templates that include the global policy. All global policies are read-only in Cisco UCS Manager.
You can configure all operational policies under a domain group using IPv6 addresses. These policies are located in the Operations Management tab of the Cisco UCS Central GUI.
This feature helps the Cisco UCS Manager to use an IPv6 address while importing these policies from Cisco UCS Central.

Policy Resolution between Cisco UCS Manager and Cisco UCS Central
Policy Resolution Control
For each Cisco UCS domain that you register with Cisco UCS Central, you can choose which application will manage certain policies and configuration settings. This policy resolution does not have to be the same for every Cisco UCS domain that you register with the same Cisco UCS Central.
You have the following options for resolving these policies and configuration settings:
-
Local—The policy or configuration is determined and managed by Cisco UCS Manager.
-
Global—The policy or configuration is determined and managed by Cisco UCS Central.
The following table contains a list of the policies and configuration settings that you can choose to have managed by either Cisco UCS Manager or Cisco UCS Central:
Note | The policy resolution options in Cisco UCS Central are not supported on all versions of Cisco UCS Manager. If your Cisco UCS Manager version is earlier than the earliest supported release, the policy resolution screen may display the value as global even if it is not applicable. |
In a case where you choose certain policies to be resolved locally using the Policy Resolution Control feature in Cisco UCS Central, or when a Cisco UCS Domain is unregistered from Cisco UCS Central, the global settings/unnamed policies (such as QoS Settings, Discovery policies) stay as previously configured. You must manually change the policy details to the desired state.
Caution | Unregistering a Cisco UCS Domain has serious implications. You must not unregister the Cisco UCS Domain unless you choose to permanently not manage it from Cisco UCS Central. |

Consequences of Policy Resolution Changes
When you register a Cisco UCS domain, you configure policies for local or global resolution. The behavior that occurs when the Cisco UCS domain is registered or when that registration or configuration changes, depends upon several factors, including whether a domain group has been assigned or not.
The following table describes the policy resolution behavior you can expect for each type of policy.
