I would like to announce the general availability of goUCS version 2.0 on Cisco Developer Network. A lot of time and effort has been put into the newest goUCS release, with some of the main features being detailed below.

 

Lest anyone thinks I have forgotten about my blogging on the UCS API, I have not, but I have written a blog recently for the Data Center blog and it is applicable to the UCS so I thought I would share the link here along with the blog into.

How to use new cmdlet generated from ConvertTo-UCSCmdlet
Answer

Hi,
I am new to powertool but not to powershell and and having a problem with the usage of the result from ConvertTo-UCSCmdlet. I just created a new service profile from a template and verified it completed successfully. I found the xml in the log file and pasted just that to a new txt file then ran the ConvertTo-UCSCmdlet cmdlet with the -xml parameter and the path to the file i created with the xml. It completed successfully with a warning "WARNING: Please review the generated cmdlets before deployment." not a big deal and shows the cmdlets as output. Everything looks good. Now my quastion is: I assume a new cmdlet was created that performs the task that was in the XML, How do I now use that new command? what is the new cmdlet?
 
thanks,
tim

Hi,
Please take a look at the attached presentation for getting to know ConvertTo-UcsCmdlet better. It does not generate one single cmdlet. It generates a PowerShell script that can be executed to simulate the same operation again.
Thanks,
