Double-dense server bay option

If the 'Allow the double density device bays' option was selected while using the Domain Setup Wizard, VC

Manager displays the server bays as double-dense, regardless of the actual hardware installed.
For example, if a full-height server blade is installed in physical Bay 1 of a double-dense enabled enclosure,
Bay 1A and Bay 1B in VC Manager are displayed as 'Covered.' If a double-dense server blade is installed

in physical Bay 1, Bay 1 in VC Manager is displayed as COVERED, and Bays 1A and 1B display the

appropriate double-dense server blade information.
If the VC domain is configured for double-dense server mode, and a profile is assigned to an empty server

bay, then a hot-plug installation of a single-dense server into that server bay results in the profile not being
activated. To recover the profile, unassign the profile, and then reassign it.
If VC Manager is downgraded to a version lower than v1.31, the double-dense bays and servers are no

longer displayed within the VC Manager. Any profiles associated with a double-dense bay are unassigned.
