350-601 Compute Practice Question
Which of the following best describes stateless computing in Cisco UCS?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
All server configuration is stored in the service profile, allowing any physical blade to assume the identity.
Stateless computing means that all configuration (BIOS, firmware, network, storage settings) is stored in the service profile on UCS Manager, not on the server. Thus, a failed blade can be replaced without reconfiguration.
