Designing Cisco Data Center Infrastructure (DCID) — Question 145

An engineer is designing a Cisco UCS Central implementation for an existing Cisco UCS infrastructure, and the current policies must be reused. Which action must the engineer select?

Answer options

• A. Connect Cisco UCS Manager to Cisco UCS Central and convert local policies to global policies.
• B. Export the policies from Cisco UCS Manager and import them in Cisco UCS Central.
• C. Retain existing policies in Cisco UCS Manager and use global policies for new service profiles.
• D. Create new policies in Cisco UCS Central and change the assignment to central.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct choice is A because connecting Cisco UCS Manager to Cisco UCS Central allows for the conversion of local policies into global policies, which is essential for reusing existing configurations. Option B is incorrect as it suggests a manual export/import process that is not the correct method for this scenario. Option C fails to address the need for conversion to global policies, and option D proposes creating new policies instead of reusing the existing ones.
