Confirms that the target VC Domain Group that the server profile will be exported to has
a status of Configuration in synch. VC Domain Groups with other statuses such as the
following list cannot receive exported server profiles:

Under maintenance

Incompatible firmware

Ensures that the target VC Domain Group virtual MAC, WWN and Serial Number range
types are compatible with addresses allocated in the selected server profile. See

Table 4 (page 25)

) for more information.

If any of the

Step 2

conditions are not met, the prevalidation window (

Move profile

prevalidation table (page 88)

) displays an error for this step.

3.

Feature compatibility validations—The target VC Domain Group must support all the connections
and features defined by the selected server profile. VCEM performs the following validations
in this step:

Ensures that the target VC Domain Group firmware mode supports iSCSI if the server
profile contains iSCSI connections

Ensures that the target VC Domain Group supports FC connections if the server profile
contains them.

Confirms that the target VC Domain Group firmware mode supports FCoE if the server
profile contains FCoE connections.

If any

Step 3

condition is not attained, the prevalidation window (

Move profile prevalidation

table (page 88)

) displays an error status for this step.

4.

Feature Validations related to Network—VCEM performs the following validations related to
the Ethernet connections data exportation:

Confirms that the target VC Domain Group supports server profiles with Ethernet
connections defined as Multiple Networks. If the server profile has an Ethernet connection
using Multiple Networks, then the target VC Domain Group firmware mode must support
the server VLAN mapping feature, otherwise

Step 4

displays an error status in the

prevalidation window (

Move profile prevalidation table (page 88)

).

Ensures that the Ethernet networks used in the selected server profile exist in the target
VC Domain Group. If any network used in the profile does not exist in the target VC
Domain Group, VCEM automatically removes the reference to that network from the server
profile in order to allow it to be exported to the target VC Domain Group. Network names
used by the server profile Ethernet or iSCSI connections should match the network names
defined in the target VC Domain Group. Otherwise, the network name will be
disassociated from the specific server profile connection (Ethernet or iSCSI) and

Step 4

displays a configuration status in the prevalidation window (

Move profile prevalidation

table (page 88)

). In this case after the export server profile operation is completed , you

must edit the server profile in the target VC Domain Group and assign an existing network
to the Ethernet or iSCSI connection so that the server profile network connectivity works
properly.

Confirms that the network port speed defined in the server profile is less than or equal to
the maximum port speed defined for the target VC Domain Group network, otherwise

Step 4

displays an error status in the prevalidation window.

Ensures that all VLAN network names for the Ethernet connections defined as multiple
connections exist in the target VC Domain Group. VLAN network names used by a server
profile connection that is defined as Multiple Networks must match the network names
