350-601 Compute Practice Question
An organization uses UCS Central to manage multiple UCS domains. A global service profile policy is created in UCS Central to enforce a common boot policy across all domains. However, one UCS domain needs a different boot order for a specific set of blades. How should the administrator implement this deviation while maintaining centralized manageability?

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Create a local boot policy in the specific UCS Manager and assign it to the service profiles that need the change.
UCS Central allows global policies, but local policies in each UCS Manager can override them for specific service profiles. The administrator should create a local boot policy in the specific UCS domain and assign it to the service profiles that require the different boot order.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Create a local boot policy in the specific UCS Manager and assign it to the service profiles that need the change.
Why this is correct
Local policies override global policies for the assigned service profiles.
- ✗
Exclude the specific UCS domain from the global policy and create a separate global policy for that domain.
Why it's wrong here
UCS Central does not support domain-specific global policies; it's all or nothing.
- ✗
Delete the global boot policy and use only local policies.
Why it's wrong here
This would lose centralized manageability.
- ✗
Modify the global boot policy in UCS Central to include all variations.
Why it's wrong here
Global policies apply to all domains; modifying them would affect all blades.
