Which statement is true about upgrading the firmware on a Cisco MDS storage switch with dual supervisors?

  1. Supervisors can be upgraded independently to test the new firmware.
  2. The new firmware is loaded on the standby supervisor first.
  3. Both supervisors load the new firmware and then the active supervisor reboots.
  4. The standby supervisor must be offline before the firmware upgrade begins.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Non-Disruptive Upgrades Overview
All MDS switches support non-disruptive upgrades and downgrade subject to limitations listed in the MDS release notes.
On a 95xx or 97xx Series MDS with dual supervisors, during the firmware upgrade, the new code is loaded on the standby supervisor. A switchover then occurs in order to make the supervisor that runs the new code active. The code is then loaded on the previously active supervisor, and it becomes the new standby supervisor. The data plane continues to pass fibre channel traffic. The modules then non-disruptively start at the lowest numbered module and proceed to the highest.
On a 91xx, 92xx, or 93xx Series MDS, which has only one supervisor, the supervisor (control plane) is reloaded. The data plane continues to pass fibre channel traffic.

A Cisco MDS 9000 Series Storage Switch has reloaded unexpectedly.
Where does the engineer look for the latest core dump file?

  1. /mnt/recovery
  2. /mnt/core
  3. /mnt/logs
  4. /mnt/pss

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Saving the Last Core to Bootflash
This last core dump is automatically saved to bootflash in the /mnt/pss/ partition before the switchover or reboot occurs. Three minutes after the supervisor module reboots, the saved last core is restored from the flash partition (/mnt/pss) back to its original RAM location. This restoration is a background process and is not visible to the user.

An engineer must implement a Cisco UCS system at a customer site. One of the requirements is to implement SAN boot. The storage system maps the source
WWPN to a unique LUN.
Which method does Cisco recommend to configure the SAN boot?

  1. Define the vHBAs as bootable and leave the boot target definition empty.
  2. Create a SAN boot policy in which every initiator is mapped to a different target LUN.
  3. Define the vHBAs as bootable and leave the default values on the boot target definition.
  4. Create a SAN boot policy in which every initiator is mapped to the same target LUN.

Answer(s): D

Refer to the exhibit. Which feature set must be used to configure on switch 2 to establish a VSAN trunk between switch 1 and switch 2?


  1. -F Port
    -Trunk Mode Passive

  2. -N Port
    -Trunk Mode Active

  3. -NP Port
    -Trunk Mode Auto

  4. -E Port
    -Trunk Mode On

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

By default, trunk mode is enabled in all Fibre Channel interfaces. However, trunk mode configuration takes effect only in E-port mode. You can configure trunk mode as on (enabled), off (disabled), or auto (automatic). The default trunk mode is on. The trunk mode configuration at the two ends of an ISL, between two switches, determine the trunking state of the link and the port modes at both ends (see Table 15-1).
