Configuring Server Inheritance Policies
Server Inheritance Policy
This policy is invoked during the server discovery process to create a service profile for the server. All service
profiles created from this policy use the values burned into the blade at manufacture. The policy performs the
following:
• Analyzes the inventory of the server
• If configured, assigns the server to the selected organization
• Creates a service profile for the server with the identity burned into the server at manufacture
You cannot migrate a service profile created with this policy to another server.
Creating a Server Inheritance Policy
A blade server or rack-mount server with a VIC adapter, such as the Cisco UCS M81KR Virtual Interface
Card, does not have server identity values burned into the server hardware at manufacture. As a result, the
identity of the adapter must be derived from default pools. If the default pools do not include sufficient entries
for one to be assigned to the server, service profile association fails with a configuration error.
