Configuring Cisco UCS fencing in RHV Manager

Just a quick postit on how to configure fencing of Cisco UCS servers in RHV. Since the fencing agent requires the full path to the Service Profile in UCS, it needs to be carefully specified as:

Slot: MyServer
Options: suborg=org-CLOUD/org-CLOUD-HYPERVISORS/org-AZ1,ssl_insecure=1

The path to the Service Profile can be checked by inspecting the UCS 'Events' tab, which will show entries similar to:

<eventRecord
affected="org-root/org-CLOUD/org-CLOUD-HYPERVISORS/org-AZ1/ls-MyServer"
cause="transition"
changeSet=""
code="E4196007"
created="2018-02-21T12:44:16Z"
descr="[FSM:BEGIN]: Configuring Service Profile CFS1PHY03(FSM:sam:dme:LsServerConfigure)"
id="2586840"
ind="state-transition"
sessionId="internal"
severity="info"

txId="1209150"

dn="event-log/2586840"

sacl="addchild,del,mod">
</eventRecord>

Happy hacking!
