Enclosure Import

After making the selection to create a new Virtual Connect domain by importing the enclosure on the

Enclosure Import/Recovery screen, the Import Status screen appears and provides information about
whether the import was successful. If the import is not successful, error information is displayed.

Using double-dense server blades

Beginning with version 1.31, Virtual Connect Manager supports the use of double density server blades,

which means support for up to 32 device bays in a single c7000 enclosure. This support also provides
32 new device bays (1A-16A and 1B-16B) for profile assignment. On a c3000 enclosure, this feature

supports 8 additional or 16 total device bays. (1A-8A and 1B-8B.)
The two physical servers A and B in a double density server blade correspond to the left and the right

sides of the device bay in c7000 enclosures, or the top and bottom of the device bay in c3000
enclosures. Servers A and B have independent iLO, power, presence, and status capabilities.
In c7000 enclosures, Bays 1A-16A are associated with the left sides of the double density server blades

seated in the half-height bays 1-16. Bays 1B-16B are associated with the right sides of the double density

server blades seated in the half-height bays 1-16. In c3000 enclosures, Bays 1A-8A are associated with
the top of the double-dense server blades seated in the half-height bays 1-8. Bays 1B-8B are associated

with the bottom of the double-dense server blades seated in the half-height bays 1-8.

Enclosure recovery

If restoring a Virtual Connect domain using an externally saved configuration file, click Browse and locate

the saved configuration file. If the configuration file was originally created on an enclosure with a

different serial number, the checkbox must be selected to allow it to be used in a new enclosure. Click
