Table 18 Prevalidation status

Description

Status

Step has successfully completed.

Done

VCEM will perform some changes on the server profile in
order to export it to the target VC Domain Group. If a

Configuration

configuration status is displayed, the export can proceed
but some post-export actions need to be performed such
as editing the server profile at the target VC Domain Group
and assigning existing networks or fabrics so that the server
profile network and storage connectivity continues to work
properly.

VCEM has detected some situation where the validation
failed. If any steps show an error status, the export cannot
proceed until the problem is fixed.

Error

VCEM detects that changes need to be made to the source
server profile such as removing an FC or FCoE connection

Warning

or adding or removing VLANS in a multiple network
defined connection. If any step shows a warning status,
then the export cannot proceed until the problem is fixed.

The following list is a full description, including validations and post-configuration actions required
for each step.
1.

Source resource validations—VCEM performs the following source resource validations:

Ensures that if the source server profile is assigned to a server, that the server is powered
off before the export operation.

NOTE:

If the source server is not powered off, you must power it off and perform the

export operation again.

Confirms that the source VC Domain Group that the server profile belongs to has a status
of Configuration in synch. Server profiles belonging to a VC Domain Group with other
statuses such as the following list cannot be exported:

Under maintenance

Expired license

Incompatible firmware mode

If any of the

Step 1

conditions are not met, the prevalidation window (

Move profile

prevalidation table (page 121)

) displays an error for this step.

2.

Target resource validations—VCEM performs the following target resource validations:

If the target device bay selected contains a server then the server must be powered off
before the export operation can be performed.

NOTE:

If the target server is not powered off, you must power it off and perform the

export operation again.

Ensures that the target bay device does not have a server profile assignment.
