In this recipe, we will learn how to use P2V migration from the HP C7000 Blade Server to Cisco UCS.
Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 is running on the source HP BL460c Blade Server, which is installed on the HP C7000 Chassis (Slot1). The chassis has two Brocade 8 GB FC modules and two HP Flex-10 GB Ethernet modules. The source machine is connected to one EMC CX4-240 SAN Storage through SAN Switches and one EMC LUN is assigned to the Windows 2008 host. For P2V migration, prepare one Cisco UCS 5108 Chassis with two UCS IOM 2208XPs installed, each UCS IOM being connected to one Cisco UCS 6428UP. There is one UCS B200 M3 with one VIC 1240 installed on this chassis. Configure four ports on each Cisco UCS 6428UP as an Ethernet uplink port (port 17/18) and an FC uplink port (port 6/7), connected to SAN Switches and LAN Switches with Fibre Channel cables. EMC SAN Storage has two controllers and each controller has two FC ports connected to each SAN Switch...
