Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Smart Link stacking port system uncleared event status One of the management protocols supported by . Traditional management protocol used extensively by networking systems and most servers. MIB-2 is the standard information available consistently across all vendors. A feature that, when enabled, configures a Virtual Connect network so that if all external uplinks lose link to external switches, Virtual Connect will drop the Ethernet link on all local server blade Ethernet ports connected to that network. A VC-Enet module external port used to connect to other VC-Enet modules within an active VC Domain. Stacking ports are automatically identified by the VC-Enet modules. The port number (port ID) is illuminated amber. Nodes on the network that communicate through TCP/IP or IPX. To manage a system, some type of management protocol (for example, SNMP, DMI, or WBEM) must be present on the system. Examples of systems include servers, workstations, desktops, portables, routers, switches, hubs, and gateways. Events that have a Critical, Major, Minor, Normal, or Informational severity. • Critical. A failure has occurred, and immediate attention is required. • Major. A failure is impending. • Minor. A warning condition exists that can escalate into a more serious problem. • Normal. These events are not a problem. • Informational. No attention required. This status is provided as useful information unknown status uplink port uplink port set user VC Domain Group configuration Version Control Agent (VCA) Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager (VCEM) Virtual Connect Manager (VCM) Virtual Connect server profile cannot obtain management information about the system using SNMP or DMI. Although no management instrumentation information is available, the system can be pinged. It might have an invalid community string or security setting. An external port that is configured within Virtual Connect for use as a connection to external networking equipment. Uplink ports are defined within Virtual Connect by the enclosure name, interconnect bay containing the module, and the part number. The port number (port ID) for uplink ports is lit green. A set of uplinks that are used together to provide improved throughput and availability for a single Virtual Connect network connection to external networking equipment. A network user with a valid login on the that has been added to . A Virtual Connect domain configuration (including network definition, storage definition, MAC address setting, and WWN address setting) applied to all the Virtual Connect modules in one VC Domain group. It requires these Virtual Connect modules managed by the VC Domain Group to have identical hardware configuration. An agent that is installed on a server to enable you to see the HP software installed on that server. The can be configured to point to a agent, enabling easy version comparison and software update from the repository. VCEM simplifies the management of multiple HP BladeSystem enclosures that use Virtual Connect to control LAN and Storage Area Network (SAN) connectivity, helping organizations increase productivity, respond more quickly to business demands, and significantly reduce operating costs. The firmware embedded software provided with each Virtual Connect module. A logical grouping of attributes related to server connectivity that can be assigned to a server blade. A server profile can be assigned to any server blade within the VC Domain. 107
