Domain Settings (Enclosures) screen

Use this screen to view, add, or remove enclosures in the domain. When importing an enclosure, consider

the following:

After an enclosure import, the VCM CLI shows the Stacking Links Connections Status as "Failed" until all
modules are initialized. Depending on the actual configuration, this can take up to 30 seconds.

If an enclosure import is attempted with a server blade in a failed state, VCM might incorrectly report an
error when an error does not exist. If the import times out with an error, close the browser and log in

again to verify that the import was successful. Use the OA to verify the working state of all server blades.

For more information on adding and importing a remote enclosure, see "Adding and importing a remote

enclosure (on page

26

)."

Multiple enclosures are supported only if an appropriate primary and backup VC module is running in the

local enclosure. For more information about connecting multiple enclosures, see the HP Virtual Connect for
c-Class BladeSystem Setup and Installation Guide
on the HP website (

http://www.hp.com/go/vc/manuals

).
