In the full Logical Server paradigm deployment, you need to have identities defined with the logical service profile that will then be applied to the Cisco UCS blade. A Logical Server is defined with identity (UUID, MAC/WWN addresses, and VLAN/VSAN requirements). The profile can be associated with only one blade at a time, but the association can be changed if there is a problem with a particular blade, or hardware maintenance is required on a particular blade.

The Mobile (Relocatable) Logical Server concept allows the same logical server to be booted on different blades at different times. When a blade is associated with a server profile, it inherits all its identity and boot information from the profile. This model works best when the OS is booted off a SAN LUN. This document shows you how to create pools of identity information defined within the Logical Server Profile to facilitate the Mobile Logical Server concept:

Create UUID Pools
Create MAC Pools
Create WWN Pools
