Chapter 9
Congestion Management in Cisco UCS Servers
The focus of this chapter is explaining the use of a remote monitoring platform (such as UTM) for detecting congestion in Cisco UCS servers. UTM demonstrates that even minimal congestion metrics can detect most (if not all) congestion issues when the data is correlated and analyzed carefully. This chapter does not, however, intend to make you an expert in Cisco UCS. In addition, the examples in this chapter consider only UCS Manager. The relatively new Intersight Managed Mode (IMM) is not explained, although a similar workflow can be used.
This chapter covers the following topics:
Cisco UCS architecture, traffic flow, and flow control
Understanding and detecting congestion in a UCS domain ...
