  Cisco UCS Blade Server
Upgrade Scenario 1: UCSM and BIOS Earlier Than Version 2.2(2c), CPU Earlier Than Intel E5-4600 v2 
This scenario assumes the following conditions:
  •
The Cisco UCS Manager software is at a version earlier than 2.2(2c).
  •
The server is at a BIOS/CIMC version earlier than 2.2(2c). 
  •
The server is using CPUs earlier than Intel E5-4600 v2 Series.
In this case, use the following procedure to upgrade the server and CPUs.
Step 1
Upgrade the Cisco UCS Manager software to version 2.2(2c) or later. The required server CIMC and 
BIOS are also included with the 2.2(2c) download bundle.
Use the procedures in the appropriate upgrade guide for Release 2.1 (depending on your current software 
version): 
Step 2
Use Cisco UCS Manager 2.2(2c) to upgrade and activate the server CIMC to version 2.2(2c) or later.
Use the GUI or CLI procedures in the 
Step 3
Use Cisco UCS Manager 2.2(2c) to upgrade and activate the server BIOS to version 2.2(2c) or later.
Use the GUI or CLI procedures in the 
Step 4
Disassociate the server in Cisco UCS Manager.
Step 5
Power off the server.
Step 6
Replace the CPUs with the Intel E5-4600 v2 Series CPUs.
Use the procedures in the 
Step 7
Reinsert the server to the chassis.
Step 8
Wait for Cisco UCS Manager to automatically discover the server.
Note
At this point, the Health LED of the server shows a critical fault and Cisco UCS Manager reports 
a generic error message: 
WILL_BOOT_FAULT: Sensor failure asserted
. This is because a board 
controller activation is required, as described in the next step.
Step 9
Clear the WILL_BOOT_FAULT
 by 
using the Cisco UCS Manager GUI to reset the server CIMC:
a.
In the Navigation pane, click the Equipment tab.
b.
On the Equipment tab, expand Equipment > Chassis > Chassis number > Servers, then choose 
your server.
c.
In the Work pane, click the General tab.
d.
In the Actions area, click Recover Server.
e.
In the Recover Server dialog, click Reset CIMC (Server Controller), then click OK.
Wait for CIMC to reboot and for Cisco UCS Manager to do a shallow discovery of the server. This 
takes two to three minutes. At the end of this process the WILL_BOOT_FAULT is cleared.
Upgrade Scenario 2: UCSM and BIOS at Version 2.2(2c) or Later, CPU Earlier Than Intel E5-4600 v2 
This scenario assumes the following conditions:
  •
The Cisco UCS Manager software is at version 2.2(2c) or later.
