The Restore IBP function rewrites the configuration saved internally in the
VIOM database to the IBP module.

In doing so, all the connections are interrupted momentarily, as all
the network connections are reprogrammed in the IBP module.

The same applies if a defective IBP module is replaced. In this case, the Vir-
tual-IO Manager recognizes that a new connection blade has been inserted in
the managed blade server chassis. The corresponding module is indicated on
the Setup tab with a note regarding the inconsistent configuration.

You restore the configuration as follows:

1. Carry out the base configuration (configure the IP parameters, system

name of the IBP, …) of the connection blade. In addition, the IP con-
figuration of the connection blade must have been read from the Server-
View Operations Manager. This is done as part of a regular scan of the
blade server chassis.

You may have to start the blade server chassis scan explicitly
by selecting Explore in the context menu of the relevant blade
server chassis in the server list of the ServerView Operations
Manager.

2. Click Restore IBP on the Setup tab to write the configuration saved

internally to the new connection blade.

11.4.2 Deleting the configuration of an uninstalled IBP module

If an IBP module for which a configuration still exists has been removed from
a chassis, the configuration remains in the internal database of the Virtual-IO
Manager.

This incorrect state is displayed on the Setup tab for the respective chassis
with a corresponding state icon on the graphical display of the empty slot on
the rear of the chassis. slot is empty is indicated as the state in State
Cause
for this slot.

You can delete the configuration you no longer need. You do this as follows:

1. Click the relevant slot in the graphical display on the rear of the chassis.

2. Then click the Delete Configuration button.
