Example: Server Pool Name Resolution in a Multi-Level Hierarchy
Inthis example, each organization includes at least one suborganization. For example, a company could create
organizationsfor each major division in the company and for subdivisions of those divisions. In this
configuration,each organization has access to its local policies and resource pools and to the resource pools
inthe parenthierarchy.
Inthis example,the Finance organizationincludes two sub-organizations, AccountsPayable and
AccountsReceivable.A service profile in the AccountsPayable organization is configured to use servers from
theAP server pool. When resource pools and policies are assigned to the service profile, the following occurs:
1CiscoUCS Manager checks for an available server in the AP server pool defined in the service profile.
2Ifthe APserver pool hasan available server, Cisco UCS Manager associates that server with the service
profileand discontinues the search. If the pool does not have an available server, Cisco UCS Manager
movesone level up the hierarchy and checks the Finance organization for a pool with the same name.

UCSManager associates that server with the service profile and discontinues the search. If the pool does
nothave an available server, Cisco UCS Manager moves one level up in the hierarchy and checks the root
organizationfor a pool with the same name.
4Ifthe root organization includes a pool with the same name and that pool has an available server, Cisco
UCSManager associates that server with the service profile and discontinues the search. If the pool does
nothave an available server, Cisco UCS Manager returns to the AccountsPayable organization to check
thedefault server pool.

associatesthat server with the service profile and discontinues the search. If the default pool does not have
anavailable server, Cisco UCS Manager moves one level up in the hierarchy and checks the default server
poolin the Finance organization.
6Ifthe default pool in the Finance organization has an available server, Cisco UCS Manager associates that
serverwith the service profile and discontinues the search. If the default pool does not have an available
server,Cisco UCS Manager moves one level up in the hierarchy and checks the default server pool in the
rootorganization.
