QuestionQ174

Compute

An engineer must configure a Cisco UCS Manager backup and restore during weekend maintenance windows. The configuration must be returned to its original state on Monday morning. End users may make changes only to the Service Profile configuration. Which set of actions satisfies these requirements?

  • A Schedule a system backup to run at the start of every weekend and manually import the backup on Monday morning.
  • B Schedule a logical backup to run at the star of every weekend and manually import the backup on Monday morning.
  • C Schedule a system backup to run at the start of every weekend and schedule the import of the backup to run on Monday morning.
  • D Schedule a logical backup to run at the start of every weekend and schedule the import of the backup to run on Monday morning.
Explanation

In Cisco UCS Manager, a backup policy can be scheduled to run automatically (e.g., at the start of every weekend), but import/restore operations cannot be scheduled to run automatically and must be started manually. Since only Service Profile configuration is expected to change over the weekend, a logical configuration backup, an XML export limited to service profiles, VLANs, VSANs, pools, and policies, is the appropriate backup type to schedule; the resulting file is then manually imported Monday morning to return the environment to its original state.
