4 Configuration
Although VIOM does not guarantee that boot images created for one server
type also work with another server type, VIOM also supports the assignment
of server profiles for blades on PRIMERGY rack servers and vice versa. For
further information, see the section
"VIOM server profile mapping" on page
132 .
4.5 VIOM server profile mapping
Although server profiles for PRIMERGY rack server models and blade
servers differ with regard to I/O channel types, profiles for PRIMERGY rack
servers can be assigned to blade servers and profiles for blade servers can
be assigned to PRIMERGY rack servers if the target server provides the
same I/O controllers and meets certain requirements.
To determine if such an assign is possible, it is important to know how I/O
channels of blade server mezzanine cards are mapped to I/O channels of
PCI add-on cards and vice versa. Onboard I/O channels are taken as they
are. Of course, the device type of the destination ports have to be compatible
to the source ports. The used I/O channel mapping is shown in the following
table:
Mezzanine card in blade
server PCI controller in PRIMERGY rack
server
Mezzanine card 1, I/O port 1 PCI controller 1, I/O port 1
Mezzanine card 1, I/O port 2 PCI controller 1, I/O port 2
Mezzanine card 1, I/O port 3 PCI controller 1, I/O port 3
Mezzanine card 1, I/O port 4 PCI controller 1, I/O port 4
Mezzanine card 2, I/O port 1 PCI controller 2, I/O port 1
Mezzanine card 2, I/O port 2 PCI controller 2, I/O port 2
Mezzanine card 2, I/O port 3 PCI controller 2, I/O port 3
Mezzanine card 2, I/O port 4 PCI controller 2, I/O port 4
