Blade Enclosure

[Ben Stuart]

Can someone point me to some documentation for getting my blade enclosure setup in HP SIM 5.0?

The rack and enclosures are there but they don't have any info.

Well there is not a lot of info available as they are both dumb items.

Have you gone into the iLO on one of the blades and named the enclosures and rack?

[Ben Stuart]

Yes, I have. I do a discovery scan and it grabs some of the iLO Management processors and the servers, the Rack and the enclosures. But I get this ? ? ?

I know the power enclosures are a known problem.

This looks like you don't have a working enclosure management communication setup.

Are the blue cables linked into the management ports correctly.

Starting from the lower power enclosure. Link Up to Down on the power enclosure above. And then up on the top power enclosure to down on the bottom blade enclosure.....and then on. Make sure there are no blue cables plugged into the ILO port.

Then it all should work.
