Defining Cisco UCS credential in AccelOps
1. Go to Admin > Setup wizard > Credentials
2. In Step 1: Enter credentials, click Add and enter the following information and click Save
o Name: name of this credential
o Device type: Cisco UCS
o Access protocol: UCS API
o Credentials: user name and password
2. Test connectivity
1. Go to Admin > Setup wizard > Credentials
2. In Step 2: Enter IP range to credential associations, click Add and enter the following information and
click Save
o IP/HostName: IP address of the Cisco UCS device
o Credentials: name of the Cisco UCS credential defined in the previous step
3. Click Test Connectivity and make sure the test succeeds
Discovering Cisco UCS
1. Go to Admin > Setup wizard > Discover infrastructure
2. Click Add and enter the following information and press OK
o Name: Name of this discovery
o Discovery Type: Range Scan
o Include Range and Exclude IP Ranges
3. Select the discovery item and click Discover
4. Go to Monitor Change/Performance and see the monitored Cisco UCS performance objects
