Normally, this process is straight forward and very easy! One of the reasons why I love Cisco UCS, but this time after everything was said and done the blade status was showing "WILL_BOOT_FAULT." Uh, what the heck is WILL_BOOT_FAULT and where did this come from? Ive never seen this before?! So i elected to dig into the problem and see what could be wrong. Monitor the firmware upgrade process via FSM at either the blade level (recommended) or from the service profile.Use Cisco UCS Manager to upgrade and activate the server CIMC, BIOS and boardcontroller.The required server CIMC and BIOS are also included with the download bundle. Upgrade the Cisco UCS Manager software to version 2.2(1ac) or later.This weekend while testing out the new features and compatibility of Cisco UCS firmware 2.2(1c) I ran into an issue where when a blade was upgrading using the auto upgrade feature was showing a very strange status.
