Virtual Connect server profiles 204
Column name Description
on the Serial Number Settings screen (on page 176 )
Server UID The server UUID generated by Virtual Connect and assigned to this profile
Ethernet Adapter Connections
Port Relative order of the Ethernet port on the server receiving the profile. System
board NICs are first in the order, followed by NICs on mezzanine cards. See
"iSCSI and FCoE port assignments (on page
169 )" and "Bandwidth
assignment (on page 171 )."
Network Name
Unassigned, name of the network, or "Multiple Networks" associated with
this port.
Status Displays the current linked status of the selected port
Port Speed Type
The requested operational speed for the server port. Valid values include
"Auto", "Preferred", "Custom", and "Disabled". The default value is
"Preferred".
Auto—The maximum port speed is determined by the maximum configured
speed for the network.
Preferred—The speed of the network is the same as the preferred speed of the
network to which the connection is associated. If no preferred speed is
configured for a network, it behaves like "Auto".
Custom—You can configure any speed from 100Mb to the maximum
configured speed for the network in 100-Mb increments.*
For all speed types the maximum port speed is determined by the maximum
configured speed for the network. If the speed type is "Auto," VCM
determines the appropriate port speed based on the available bandwidth for
the port. The configured port speed behaves like Auto (default). If the speed
type is "Disabled," bandwidth is not allocated. You can only set the minimum
port speed here. The maximum is set in the port link speed.
Allocated Port Speed Allocated bandwidth of the port. See "Bandwidth assignment (on page
171 )."
PXE Enables or disables PXE on the network connection. Valid values are
"enabled", "disabled", and "UseBios". If this value is not specified, the
default is "UseBios".
Only one connection can have PXE enabled per profile.
Multicast Filter Shows the name of the multicast filter or filter set that has been selected for the
connection
MAC
As of VC 3.70, the actual hardware MAC for mapped connections appears.
For unmapped connections, FACTORY-DEFAULT continues to appear. If the
profile is assigned, the MAC address assigned to the port appears. If the
profile is unassigned and the domain is set to show factory default MAC
addresses, FACTORY-DEFAULT appears. If the profile is using VC-defined
MAC addresses, the VC-defined MAC address appears. If the profile is using
hardware MAC addresses, FACTORY-DEFAULT appears.
Mapping Server hardware mapping assignment. See "iSCSI and FCoE port
assignments (on page 169 )."
Action Delete a connection. Connections can be removed starting with the last
connection in the list.
iSCSI HBA Connections
Port Relative order of the iSCSI port on the server receiving the profile
Network Name Unassigned or name of the network associated with this port
Status Displays the current linked status of the selected port
Port Speed Type The requested operational speed for the server port. Valid values include
