3. Click Delete. The Delete VC Domain Groups page appears.
4. Perform the following actions for each VC Domain that uses HP-predefined or user-defined
ranges within the VC Domain Group that you want to remove. Factory-default MAC and
WWN ranges are released back to VCM as Factory-default.
If factory-default MAC or WWN addresses or serial numbers are not being used, address
ranges must be specified for each removed VC Domain. These address ranges must be unique
and distinct to prevent assignment of duplicate addresses. If you are specifying a subset of a
user-defined range which is also in use by VCEM, each selected MAC and WWN address
range must be recorded as an exclusion to prevent VCEM assignment. VCEM manages a
proprietary serial number range, so there is no need to define an external range or serial
number. The selected HP-predefined ranges are identified as a user-defined ranges by the
VCM after the VC Domain is removed from VCEM.
The selected HP-predefined ranges are identified as a user-defined range for the VCM after
the VC Domain is removed from VCEM.
a.
Enter the MAC address range.
To use an HP-predefined MAC range, from the MAC range section, select the Use HP
Pre-Defined range box, and then select a range from the list.
You can also clear the Use HP Pre-Defined range box and then enter the start and end
addresses for the MAC range. Valid MAC address range is NN-NN-NN-NN-NN-NN
where N is a hexadecimal digit (0-F) and cannot exceed 12 characters. The VC Domain
configuration applies this MAC address range after being removed from VCEM control.
b. Enter the WWN address range.
To use an HP-predefined WWN range, from the WWN Range section, select the Use
HP Pre-Defined range box, and then select a range from the list.
You can also clear the Use Pre-Defined range box and then enter the start and end
addresses for the WWN range. Valid WWN address range is
NN:NN:NN:NN:NN:NN:NN:NN where N is a hexadecimal digit (0-F) and cannot
exceed 16 characters. The VC Domain configuration applies this WWN address range
after being removed from VCEM control.
c. Enter the serial number range.
To use an HP-predefined serial number range, from the serial number range section, select
the Use Pre-Defined range box, and then select a range from the list.
You can also clear the User Pre-Defined range box and then enter the start and end values
for the serial number range. Valid serial number range VCX01NNNNN for user-defined
or VCXNNNNNNN for HP-predefined where N is a hexadecimal digit (0-F) and cannot
exceed 10 characters. The VC Domain configuration applies this serial number address
range after being removed from VCEM control.
5. Click OK. You are prompted to confirm the deletion.

7. Click OK, to go to the Jobs page and monitor job progress.
VCEM generates an Systems Insight Manager event that describes in detail about the released VC
Domain, such as domain name, MAC range type, WWN range type, serial number range type,
server profiles and related MAC addresses, WWN addresses, serial numbers, network connections,
and Fibre Channel SAN connection range types.
