Editing a server profile

NOTE:

In a VC Domain Group with VC firmware 2.1x, the 8Gb FC module appears only if

VCEM detects it. If VCEM detects the 4Gb FC module, then the maximum port speed will be 4Gb.

VCEM detects the presence of logical server managers or upper level managers. When performing
this task, a prompt dialog message appears and explains the impact of performing that task from
outside the logical server manager or upper level manager. The following message appears:

IMPORTANT: VCEM has detected you may be using other products, such as

HP Insight Dynamics – VSE. Editing this Server Profile can make it

inconsistent with the upper level manager. It is recommended to use the

upper level manager to edit this Server Profile. Type YES to proceed

with this operation.

To proceed, you must type YES, and then click OK. VCEM does not proceed if you cut and paste
YES into the field.

When editing server profiles, VC Domain Group memberships and server bay assignments are
read only. To edit a server profile:
1.

From the Server Profiles page, select the server profile to be edited.

2.

Click Edit. The Edit Server Profile information appears below the server profile table.

3.

Enter changes to the Server Profile name as needed.

4.

Enter changes to the Ethernet network connections (physical ports) as needed, and then click
Add Network Connection.

5.

Enter changes to Fibre Channel SAN connections, and Fibre Channel boot parameters as
necessary. Depending on the physical changes to the Fibre Channel Virtual Connect modules,
the Add FC Connection button or the Remove FC Connection button appears.

6.

(Optional) To erase the current EFI partition information in the integrity blades assigned server
profiles, select Cleanup the EFI partition data.

7.

(Optional) Edit the Flex-10 iSCSI Connections table and the iSCSI Boot Setting column as
necessary.

8.

(Optional) Edit the FCoE Connections column and the FCoE Boot parameters table as necessary.

9.

(Optional) To inform the bay assignment, select VC Domain, and then select an available
target server bay. If a server profile is not assigned to a server bay or fails to assign to a server
bay, then that server profile is saved as unassigned in the VC Domain Group. The Assign to
bay button is available only if the selected server profile being edited is unassigned.

10. Verify the server bay assignment.
11. Click OK. The Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager is executing the request

message appears.
