Resetting a Blade Server
When you reset a server, Cisco UCS Manager sends a pulse on the reset line. You can choose to gracefully
shut down the operating system. If the operating system does not support a graceful shut down, the server is
power cycled. The option to have Cisco UCS Manager complete all management operations before it resets
the server does not guarantee that these operations will be completed before the server is reset.
If you are trying to boot a server from a power-down state, you should not use Reset.
If you continue the power-up with this process, the desired power state of the servers will become out of
sync with the actual power state and the servers may unexpectedly shut down at a later time. To safely
reboot the selected servers from a power-down state, click Cancel then select the Boot Server action.
