UCSM 2.1.3a - Login Error: java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 400

Recently I have run into an issue in a customer PoC and encountered a weird issue.  Everything looks fine except I cannot login UCSM.  The UCSM code I am running is 2.1.3a, and I have got the error message:

"Login Error: java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 400 for URL: http://ucsm_ip:443/nuova"

Eventually I've found out the JRE 7u45 update breaks this, after lowering the version it works fine now.

Cisco UCS Manager - Stateless computing demo

I have created a video to illustrate several demo scenario on how Cisco UCS achieve stateless computing, target to give you all a brief overview on our UCS manageability and how service profiles help to streamline the daily operations.

The video is voice over with Cantonese, sorry for those non-Cantonese speakers.  Will voice over in English when I have time.


Several configuration example has been touched on including:
- Pool creation (UUID, WWNN, WWPN, MAC)
- vNIC and vHBA template creation
- Service Profile template
- Create service profile from service profile template
- Associate Service Profile template with Server Pool to achieve service profile failover
- Rapid Server provisioning
- Server migration
