OnBoard Administrator problem

[ROSS HANSON]

Hello
I have a BL860c. Inserted into a c7000 enclosure and I manage these items with OnBoard Administrator version 3.21. When I highlight the BL860c and click on the tab that says "Information" under the "Server Host Name" it says Status is not availilable why????

Hi Ross.
I have been running OpenVMS on bl860c blades for ~3 years now, and I have never been able to see the Hostname in the OA. I get the same information as you described.

I investigated at the time, and made little progress. All that I could determine from the various sources was that in addition to there being a fundamental difference between Proliant and Itanium blades, and there is a strong dependency on the OS that you are running.

IIRC, the host name could be set up on bl860c's, but (and again, my memories are not fully reliable here) I think it didn't survive a power cycle or reboot, or something, which made it not worth bothering with.

Aesthetically its annoying, but there is no other effect.

Dave.
