HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosures 62

The VC-FC and FlexFabric FC-configured uplink port configuration must be identical across all

enclosures.

The Onboard Administrator firmware must be version 3.11 or higher. HP recommends using the latest
version available. For IPv6, see the requirements listed in Appendix C: Using IPv6 with Virtual Connect

(on page

301

) .

All Onboard Administrators must use the same user credentials because VCSU uses the primary

credentials for the remote enclosure.

When both Primary and Standby modules in the base enclosure are taken down for maintenance or

lose power and are no longer present in the domain, the management capabilities in the VC domain
are lost. If network and fabric uplinks are defined on the remaining enclosures, the servers continue to

have network and storage access. Both the Primary and Standby modules in the base enclosure must be

recovered to regain management access to the VC domain.

For more information, see the HP Virtual Connect for c-Class BladeSystem Setup and Installation Guide on the
HP website (
