Logical Interconnects and Logical Interconnect Groups. For a server connected to a logical
interconnect to access a network, the logical interconnect must have an uplink set that includes
a connection to that network:

You might need to update multiple logical interconnects.

You can make configuration changes to the logical interconnect group, and then update
each logical interconnect from the group.

If your configuration changes include deleting an uplink set or changing the name of an
uplink set, server profile network connectivity can be affected. See

“Configuration changes

that require or result in resource outages” (page 85)

.

Server Profiles. If the server profile does not have a connection to a network set that includes
this network, you must add connections to the network.

For a summary of the tasks you complete when adding a network, see

“Quick Start: Adding a

network to an existing appliance environment” (page 95)

8.2.2 Adding an enclosure

When you add an enclosure to the appliance, you might need to make configuration changes to
the following resources:

Enclosures. Add the enclosure.

Enclosure Groups. Every enclosure must be a member of an enclosure group. If you do not
choose an existing enclosure group, you must create one when you add the enclosure.

Logical Interconnects and Logical Interconnect Groups. Logical interconnects and logical
interconnect groups define the network connectivity for the enclosure. Enclosure groups must
specify a logical interconnect group. When you create an enclosure group, if you do not
specify an existing logical interconnect group, you must create one. For a server connected
to a logical interconnect to access a network, the logical interconnect group you create must
have an uplink set that includes a connection to that network.

Server Profiles. Adding and assigning server profiles to the server blades in the enclosure is
not required at the time you add the enclosure, but to use the server blades in an enclosure,
you must assign server profiles to them. To access a network, the server profile must include
a connection to that network or a network set that includes that network.

For a summary of the tasks you complete when adding an enclosure and connect its server blades
to data center networks, see

“Quick Start: Adding an enclosure and connecting its server blades

to networks” (page 99)
