1.

Select a non-version 2.30 firmware VC Domain in the VC Domain Group. For example,
select a VC Domain with a 2.0x or 2.10 firmware.

2.

Put the VC Domain into VC Domain Maintenance.

3.

In maintenance mode, use the Virtual Connect Manager user interface to disable SNMP.

4.

Return to the VCEM user interface and accept the VC Domain maintenance changes. This
action causes VCEM to propagate a SNMP disabled status to all members in the VC
Domain Group.

VCEM cannot manage a VC Domain that configures a Shared Uplink Set or Ethernet Network
with the following:

Connection mode set to Failover

More than one port with Port Role value set to Primary or no Port Role set to Primary

To resolve the issue, access Virtual Connect Manager and set one port to be the primary.

VCEM cannot manage a VC Domain that configures an Ethernet Uplink Port with a
Speed/Duplex value as Disabled. VCEM always replicates the VC Domain configuration
with Speed/Duplex set to Auto.

However, VCEM does not prevent you from adding such VC Domain to a VC Domain Group.

VCEM fails to add a VC Domain that configures an Ethernet Uplink Port with a Speed/Duplex
value as Disabled to the same VC Domain Group to which it previously belonged.

To resolve the issue, perform the following steps after the Add to VC Domain Group job failure:
1.

Go to the Virtual Connect Manager user interface.

2.

Select values for the Speed/Duplex of Ethernet Uplink Ports according to VC Domain
Group Ethernet Uplink Port values.

3.

Go to VCEM and re-add the VC Domain to the same VC Domain Group.

VCEM cannot create a VC Domain Group or add a VC Domain to a VC Domain Group when
a backup VC module is discovered or if a failover of a VC module occurred in a redundancy
environment. The following error message appears:

The VC Domain [<VC Domain Name>] cannot be managed by VCEM. A

possible cause is that the current state of the VC Domain is unknown.

Verify HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) is referencing the primary

VC Module. If not, run HP SIM discovery to update the reference.

To resolve this issue, perform a rediscovery on the Onboard Administrator IP address associated
with the VC Module and perform the VCEM operation again.

Jobs

System performance can slow down on the Jobs page when the number of jobs exceeds 20,000.
To maximize system performance, delete old jobs before the total number reaches this limit.

Server power management

VCEM might not correctly present the power state of a server when the server is powered off using
VC Manager.

Server profile operations

To create profiles for Integrity server blades that boot from SAN, you must manually configure
the SAN boot entries in the blade server EFI console.

If the server profile has Flex-10 connections enabled, and server blade NICs (onboard or
mezzanine card) are connected to HP 10/10Gb-F Virtual Connect Ethernet Module, Virtual
Connect requires you to power off the server blade to perform any server profile operation.
