Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies (DCCOR) — Question 80

An engineer must implement a Cisco UCS system at a customer site. One of the requirements is to implement SAN boot. The storage system maps the source
WWPN to a unique LUN.
Which method does Cisco recommend to configure the SAN boot?

Answer options

• A. Define the vHBAs as bootable and leave the boot target definition empty.
• B. Create a SAN boot policy in which every initiator is mapped to a different target LUN.
• C. Define the vHBAs as bootable and leave the default values on the boot target definition.
• D. Create a SAN boot policy in which every initiator is mapped to the same target LUN.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because Cisco recommends mapping all initiators to the same target LUN for SAN boot configurations. Options A and C do not adequately define the boot target, while option B complicates the setup by assigning different LUNs, which is not the recommended approach for a successful SAN boot implementation.
