Cisco UCS 6120 Startup Times
So I like to time almost everything. So naturally during my last maintenenace in our UCS environment I wanted to determing the amount of time it took for the 6120 to reboot. I wound up having to restart the 6120 multiple times and found the following times to be pretty consistent:
Time to shutdown: ~30 seconds
From boot:
| Loading firmware: | ~2.18 minutes |
| Time to network ping: | ~3.23 minutes(no ssh access yet) |
| Time to CLI serial console: | ~5.20 minutes |
| Remote access via SSH: | ~5.20 minutes |
It seems that SSH access came in at almost exactly the same time as the CLI console. Some of you might find this useful, some not. Just figured I would post it either way.
