Verifying Device Discovery in Cisco UCS Manager

The Cisco UCS Manager uses the Finite State Machine (FSM) to monitor the progress of configuration and discovery-related states. Every action that requires a set/retrieve action within the UCS Manager is perceived as a set of state transitions; there are “worker” processes performing these highly complex state transitions, and their progress and validity can be monitored and audited via the FSM. Here are some examples of components that are subject to FSM validation/monitoring:

Image Physical components

Chassis

I/O module

Blade/rackmount servers and their elements within

Logical components
