Adding another c7000 enclosure in the server rack

[Server-Support]

Hi All,

When adding another HP c7000 enclosure into the server rack full with 16x BL 460c G8 what are the steps necessary to make sure that this c7000 enclosure and its 16x BL 460c G8 server can be managed through my browser using the Onboard Administrator ?

I got one existing enclosure just wondering what else do I need to take as precaution to avoid any conflict or unwanted issue with the existing ones.

Thanks

As long as there is enough power on the rack and you make sure no IP addresses are used double there shouldn't be a conflict. If you want to intergrate the 2 OA web-GUIs too you should have a look at the onboard administrator manual. There is a section describing how this can be done.

Cool, thanks for the clarification man.

So by default to manage the c7000 enclosure it will be managed as stand alone per chassis, is that correct ?

Yes as far as I know that is correct.
Glad to hear I could help.
