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 ( Export profile prevalidation table (page 74) ).
•
Ensures that the Ethernet networks used in the selected server profile exist in the target
VC Domain Group. If any network in use does not exist in the target VC Domain Group,
VCEM automatically removes the reference to the 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 ( Export profile prevalidation table (page 74) ). 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 continues to work 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
defined in the target VC Domain Group. Otherwise
Step 4 will show a warning status at
the prevalidation window.
•
Confirms that all VLAN network names and their associated Shared Uplink Set exist in
the target VC Domain Group with the following conditions:
◦ Ethernet connections are defined as Multiple Networks.
◦ Multiple networks have the Force same VLAN mapping as Shared Uplink Sets option
selected.
If the server profile has defined a Ethernet connection using Multiple Networks configured
with the Force same VLAN mappings as Shared Uplink Sets option, then all the VLAN
networks names used by this Ethernet connection and its associated Shared Uplink Set
must match in the target VC Domain Group. The Shared Uplink Set defined in the target
VC Domain Group can contain different VLAN network associations other than the source
VC Domain Group, however, they must match the VLAN network associations used by
the server profile that is being exported. Otherwise
Step 4 displays a warning status icon
in the prevalidation window.
