NOTE:
VCEM 6.3 does not support VC firmware 1.3x , 1.2x or 2.0x. If you have these
versions of VC firmware, an incompatible firmware icon is displayed and VCEM may prevent
some VC Domain, VC Domain group, and server profile operations. You must upgrade to at
least 2.1x. See
“Upgrading incompatible firmware modes and versions” (page 19)
for more
information. While VCEM does not support these older firmware versions, both VCEM and
the HP Management System Software Wizard will not prevent you from licensing these older
firmware versions.

(Optional) Configure the MAC addresses to match the needs in the data center.
NOTE:
It is optional to set up a user-defined range in VCEM. This is only required if you are
managing VC Domains which use special user-defined MACs.
a.
Click Home from the VCEM home page. In a stand-alone VCEM installation, click Home
on the upper right-hand corner of the screen to return to the home page.
b.
Click the MAC Addresses hyperlink.
c.
Click Add custom to create a custom range.
The MAC address range used by the VCEM Domain must be unique within the
environment. HP provides a set of predefined ranges that are reserved for use by Virtual
Connect and VCEM, and does not conflict with server factory-default MAC addresses.
When using the HP-predefined MAC address ranges, be sure that each range is used
only once within the environment.

“Managing MAC and WWN addresses” (page 88)
