To assign the server profile to a device bay, click the down arrow next to Select Location to select an
enclosure and bay number. This step can be deferred.
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.
Be sure that the type of server blade in the bay, or planned for the bay, can support the configuration.
For example, not all server blades support FCoE connections.
If a server blade is present in the selected location, it must be powered off for the profile to be saved and
assigned properly.
For more information on server power requirements when assigning or removing server profiles, see
"Server profile troubleshooting (on page
