Performing VC Domain Maintenance
The VC Domain that maintenance operation comprises these steps:
1. Initiate the VC Domain Maintenance.
IMPORTANT: While one VC Domain in a VC Domain Group is in maintenance mode, profile
operations are prohibited for all VC Domains that are contained in that VC Domain Group.
Profile operations are allowed again once the VC Domain has been brought out of maintenance
mode.
2. Perform changes through the Virtual Connect Manager Web interface.
3. Confirm the VC Domain changes through VCEM.
To perform VC Domain Maintenance from the VC Domains page:
1.
Select the VC Domain upon which you want to perform VC Domain Maintenance.
2. Click VC Domain Maintenance. The VC Domain Maintenance page appears.
3. To unlock Virtual Connect Manager for domain, network, and storage changes, click Make
changes via VC Manager. Virtual Connect Manager web interface appears in a separate
browser window. The Under Maintenance status indicates that the VC Domain is temporarily
unlocked for domain, network, and storage changes.
4. Using Virtual Connect Manager, log in with full user rights at Virtual Connect Manager, perform
the necessary changes, and save the changes. VCEM blocks all operations related to the VC
Domain and to its respective VC Domain Group while VC Domain is under VC Domain
Maintenance.
5. Close the Virtual Connect Manager web browser and return to the VC Domain Maintenance
page in VCEM. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to confirm the changes in VCEM.
6. To apply the changes, click Complete VC Domain Maintenance. Optionally, to cancel VC
Domain changes, click Cancel. The Restore configuration check box enables VCEM to
automatically restore the original VC Domain configuration in case the new VC Domain
configuration is not able to be replicated to other VC Domains in the VC Domain Group. The
Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager is executing the request
message
appears with a job ID code.
7. Click OK to go to the Jobs page and monitor job progress.
IMPORTANT: When a VC Domain is put in VC Domain Maintenance, operations such as backup
and restore Virtual Connect configurations are allowed. Restoring Virtual Connect configurations
require additional care. If an old configuration is restored, verify that the configuration of this
specific VC Domain remains compatible with VC Domain Group, otherwise the VC Domain will
be incompatible with VCEM. (For example, actual server profiles in the VC Domain after the restore
may not match the previous state registered by VCEM.)
While VC Domain Maintenance enables the following actions to be performed on this VC Domain,
the actions might cause side effects in VCEM. Therefore, HP does not recommend performing these
actions.
