Legacy Systems Approach
• Vendors ―simplify‖ by
• adding software layers
• providing professional services
• Each acquired separately
• Result is a complex stack of management software to support servers & high costs
• Difficult to scale
• Difficult to change
• Legacy mentality = • High OpEx , High CapEx
• Management complexityis driving server vendorservice & software revenues

Server Deployment Today
Over the past 10 years• An evolution of size, not thinking
• More servers & switches than ever
• More switches per server
• Management applied, not integrated
Result• More points of management
• More difficult to maintain policy coherence
• More difficult to secure
• More difficult to scale

Hardware State
Traditional Paradigm for Server Identity
Today, server identity or ―state‖ is embedded in the physical hardware
E.g., MAC & WWN addresses burned into adapters, boot settings in BIOS
Server connectivity to LAN & SAN is tied to physical adapters and access portsE.g., Access port on LAN defines VLAN, SAN zoning and LUN masking done on HBA WWN

High Availability of Servers
SERVER FAILUREB440 : SAP ERP DB
Cluster for DB servers – When there is a Failure – there is an exposure to redundancy till the failed server is replaced.
In Traditional Environments this can take 4 - 5 Hrs Minimum during which there is an exposure of second failure bringing down the application
In Case of UCS - UCS Manager will enable movement of Failed Server –Service profile to the spare server – so that within minutes we are back in redundant mode.
Reducing Exposure from Hours to Minutes significantly increasing the High Availability of the overall Solution
