class="pBody">Cisco Intersight<span class="Superscript"><sup class=" cSuperscript">®</sup></span> is an IT operations platform for infrastructure lifecycle management delivered as-a-service or as a connected or private virtual appliance. It helps IT operations teams see, control, and automate their Cisco UCS<span class="Superscript"><sup class=" cSuperscript">®</sup></span>, converged, and hyperconverged infrastructure—wherever it is—from one place. Intersight provides a single dashboard for managing and automating your on-premises and edge infrastructure throughout its lifecycle. Intersight supports the Cisco Unified Computing System<span class="Superscript"><sup class=" cSuperscript">™</sup></span> (Cisco UCS), Cisco<span class="Superscript"><sup class=" cSuperscript">®</sup></span> converged and hyperconverged infrastructure, Cisco networking platforms, virtualization and container platforms, third-party servers and storage, and other integration endpoints. Because it is software-as-a-service (SaaS), Intersight functionality increases and expands with weekly releases.</p> <p class="pBody">With Intersight, you get all the benefits of SaaS delivery and full lifecycle management of distributed infrastructure and workloads across data centers, remote sites, branch offices, and edge environments. This empowers you to deploy, configure, secure, update, maintain, automate, and scale your environment through a cloud-operating model in ways that were not previously possible. As a result, your organization can operate with consistency and control, stay in compliance, and strengthen your security posture to deliver IT infrastructure, resources, and applications faster to support business growth.</p> <p class="pBody">For Cisco infrastructure, Intersight works in conjunction with Cisco UCS Manager and Cisco Integrated Management Controller (IMC). In addition, Intersight integrates with third-party storage, servers, virtualization, and other SaaS services. You can simply associate a model-based configuration to provision servers and associated storage and fabric automatically, regardless of form factor. Using profiles, IT staff can consistently align policy, server personality, and workloads. These policies can be created once and used to simplify server deployments, resulting in improved productivity and compliance, and lower risk of failures due to inconsistent configuration. In addition, Cisco provides integrations to third-party operations tools, such as ServiceNow, to allow customers to use their existing solutions more efficiently.</p> <p class="PullQuotetext" style="margin-left:0in;text-indent:0in">Intersight is my best friend. We use it daily, if not hourly, to manage globally distributed infrastructure and workloads. No more logs, no more spreadsheets.</p> <p class="PullQuoteAuthor">Scott Adametz</p> <p class="PullQuoteAuthorDesignation">Director of Technology for Riot Esports</p> <p class="pToC_Subhead1" style="page-break-before:always;page-break-after:auto"><a name="_Toc165417236">Intersight technical features and benefits</a></p> <p class="pTableCaptionCMT"><a name="benefits"></a><b>Table 1.<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">        </span></b>Main features and benefits</p> <div> <table border="1" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" width="100%" bordercolor="#ADADAD"> <thead> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td> <p class="Cellhead1"><span style="color:white">Feature</span></p> </td> <td> <p class="Cellhead1">Benefits</p> </td> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td> <p class="pChart_bodyCMT" style="font-style: normal;

You can take advantage of new features as they become available from Cisco without the challenges and complexity of maintaining your management tools.</p> <p class="pBody">The majority of our users enjoy the benefits of full SaaS management from Intersight instances in the eastern United States and Germany. Users can connect Cisco infrastructure directly to Intersight and connect third-party systems through a Cisco Intersight Assist on-premises appliance (more details below). However, if you have data locality or security needs for managing systems that may not accommodate a full SaaS model, you can leverage the on-premises Cisco Intersight Connected Virtual Appliance to connect those systems.</p> <p class="pBody">Alternately, the Cisco Intersight Private Virtual Appliance provides an easy way to deploy a VMware Open Virtual Appliance (OVA), which can be configured, deployed, and run on-premises without an internet connection. The Private Virtual Appliance allows you to take advantage of much of the SaaS functionality without connectivity back to Intersight.com. Both the Intersight Connected Virtual Appliance and Private Virtual Appliance provide advantages over conventional on-premises management tools.</p> <p class="pToC_Subhead1"><a name="_Toc165417238">Cisco Intersight Assist</a></p> <p class="pBody">The Cisco Intersight Assist enables you to claim third-party infrastructure, platforms, and other endpoints that are not directly SaaS-connected to Intersight, so they can become Intersight-managed. For example, you can use Intersight Assist to manage VMware, NetApp, Pure, Hitachi, and other on-premises infrastructure and platforms. Cisco Intersight Assist is deployed as a VM appliance running on premises, installed using an OVA that is available on Cisco.com. To learn more details about how Intersight Assist extends Intersight management to on-premises, third-party infrastructure and platforms, <a href="https://intersight.com/help/saas/getting_started/overview">visit our help site</a>. To learn how to install Cisco Intersight Assist, watch this <a href="https://youtu.be/_HSUNCZ2HmY">video</a>.</p> <p class="pToC_Subhead1"><a name="_Toc165417239"></a><a name="monitoring"></a>Monitoring and capacity planning</p> <p class="pBody">To support the complex environments created by modern applications and the dramatically increasing number of infrastructure endpoints, enterprises require analytics integrated tightly with their operations management tools. To enable these analytics capabilities, every Cisco UCS server or Cisco UCS Director instance is configured to automatically connect and transmit to Intersight certain telemetry information over a secure channel (including serial numbers and IP addresses, the versions of Cisco software installed on an endpoint, and feature-use data).</p> <p class="pBody">Users can employ this data to monitor the health status and performance of fabric interconnects and UCS servers using out-of-the-box dashboards. With Topology Views, they can identify UCS domain connectivity issues through a visual representation of components in Intersight-managed UCS domains and the connections and relationships between them. They can browse real-time and historical device metrics and telemetry data to troubleshoot problems in depth, forecast and budget resources, and find intrinsic correlations in dispersed data. For example, they can troubleshoot UCS domain network issues by checking hardware status, server port metrics, and network uplinks to identify potential issues between servers and fabric interconnects and the upstream network. Or they can conduct capacity planning by viewing overall average utilization of fabric interconnect uplink ports over a defined time period. Then they can verify link capacity to add more chassis to an existing UCS environment. </p> <p class="pBody" style="page-break-before:always">In addition, users can create custom health and performance dashboards using filters and a library of widgets. Users also can monitor and track server power and energy consumption. For example, they can analyze server energy consumption by searching and viewing power consumption by individual servers and overall energy consumption of the global server environment. They can drill down by device using filters to see details such as top energy consumers. Then they can export data for reports, presentations, and analysis in CSV files or using the Intersight API.</p> <p class="pToC_Subhead1" style="page-break-after:auto"><a name="_Toc165417240"></a><a name="enhanced"></a>Enhanced automation and orchestration</p> <p class="pSubhead2CMT">Model-based deployment</p> <p class="pBody">Intersight provides model-based deployment for Cisco and third-party compute, network, storage, integrated systems, virtualization, and containers. For example, a Cisco UCS C-Series rack server can be set up quickly and easily by replicating an existing server profile for rapid configuration. The model-based deployment works for a single system in a remote location or hundreds of systems in a data center to enable rapid, standardized configuration and deployment.</p> <p class="pSubhead2CMT">Automation and workflow orchestration</p> <p class="pBody">Intersight includes a drag-and-drop automation and workflow designer to create and execute complex workflows of operational tasks across Intersight-managed Cisco and third-party compute, network, storage, integrated systems, virtualization, and containers. A central workflow engine sequences the steps in workflows and automates their execution. A workflow executes a set of tasks, each designed to automate specific operations (for example, create, read, update, or delete) on any infrastructure or platform element. Workflows can consist of one or more tasks arranged to execute sequentially, repeatedly, in parallel, or conditionally, or they can include sub-workflows to help organize or reuse automation. Users can select from a library of prebuilt tasks that automate popular operations across Cisco and third-party compute, network, storage, integrated systems, virtualization, and containers. These prebuilt library tasks are pre integrated with access to infrastructure models, inventory, and configuration information managed within Intersight to simplify task configuration and workflow creation. For example, to automate configuration of a VM property, a pre integrated task can enable the author to select which VM to operate on from the existing inventory of VMs that user can access. The pre integrated modeling could allow a workflow author to easily traverse to that VM’s parent hypervisor host for additional configuration, the parent server operating the hypervisor, networks attached to that server, etc. Pre integrated configuration information also allows the orchestration author to control automation by other criteria.</p> <p class="pBody">In addition to the pre integrated automation task library, you can create your own custom tasks with the task designer using a variety of open integration methods such as constructing HTTP-based API calls, executing Ansible playbooks, PowerShell, or SSH.</p> <p class="pBody">A variety of workflows for popular orchestration use cases are included. You can also modify existing workflows or create your own using the workflow designer. The drag-and-drop designer makes it easy to assemble pre integrated tasks, custom tasks, and sub-workflows along with conditional statements and loops to construct any end-to-end orchestration you need across Cisco and third-party compute, network, storage, integrated systems, virtualization, and containers.

When combined with Cisco Smart Call Home, TAC cases can be automatically opened for certain faults. No matter how a TAC case is opened, if the system is connected to Cisco Intersight, the log files are automatically read from the system, attached to the TAC case, and automatically analyzed for known issues. For certain types of hardware failures, Return-Materials-Authorization (RMA) cases are automatically opened. The Cisco Intersight and TAC integration speeds case resolution, limits the impact on IT personnel, and ultimately increases system uptime.</p> <p class="pBody">Intersight also enables users to provide more direct feedback to our products. In addition, the tight integration with the TAC extends the solution scope by enhancing continuous delivery to further speed up fixes and future development.</p> <p class="pToC_Subhead1" style="page-break-before:always"><a name="_Toc165417244">Hardware compliance</a></p> <p class="pBody">Intersight evaluates your hardware and firmware compatibility to help ensure that your system is compliant with the Cisco Hardware Compatibility List.
