Anonymous Data tab Enable Extended Data on GUI Login Page- This check box is selected by default. Clearing this check box disables the "+" functionality in the topology view on the log on page for this enclosure. Disabling the extended data on the GUI log on page prevents unauthenticated users from viewing additional information. To prevent additional information from appearing for each linked enclosure, you must clear this check box for each enclosure. To save the settings, click the Apply button. Link Loss Failover screen This screen enables you to configure automatic Onboard Administrator redundancy failover based on network link status. For Link Loss Failover to function correctly, the redundancy status of the Onboard Administrators must be OK. An OK status means that both Onboard Administrators have the same firmware version, and that they are communicating properly. Enable Link Loss Failover- This check box enables or disables automatic Link Loss Failover. Failover Interval- The failover interval is the amount of time the active Onboard Administrator must be without a link on the external Ethernet interface before the system considers an automatic failover. The interval must be between 30 and 86400 seconds. To save the settings, click the Apply button. Enclosure Bay IP Addressing screen There is an important difference between the network the Superdome 2 complex is connected to and the management network that the Onboard Administrator uses. Enclosure Bay IP Addressing is used to assign IP addresses to the iLO 3 processors that are bridged through the Onboard Administrator and must not be confused with port mapping for the server blade NICs or for network routers or switches. EBPIA does not assign IP addresses for any other device on the network, and cannot be used as a DHCP server on the network. The server blade iLO 3 ports and interconnect module management ports can get IP addresses on the management network in the following ways: • DHCP address - The server blade iLO 3 defaults to DHCP addressing, through the network connector of the active Onboard Administrator. Interconnect modules that have an internal management network connection to the Onboard Administrator may also default to the DHCP address. • EBIPA - When a server blade or interconnect module is inserted into a bay that has EBIPA enabled, that management port will receive the specific static IP address from the Onboard Administrator if that device is configured for DHCP. Link-local addresses: To save IP addresses, link-local addressing can be used. Link-local IP addresses can be assigned to blades, iLOs, and interconnect bays within an enclosure. Link-local addresses are intended only for use within a segment of a network and can be used for network configurations that do not require allocated IP addresses on the network. As a best practice HP recommends the following rules for assigning iLO IP addresses: • The Monarch Npar IP address should be assigned using EBPIA/DHCP. • The Auxiliary blades should be assigned using link-local addressing to save IP addresses. For more information on setting up link-local addresses, see the HP Integrity Superdome 2 Command Line Interface User Guide. Enclosure settings 91
