Server Bays Summary screen

Device bay numbering is affected by whether the 'Allow the double density device bays' option was selected
while using the Domain Setup Wizard. Bays might appear as 'Covered' or 'Unknown.' For more

information, see "Double-dense server bay option (on page

259

)."

If a multi-blade server is installed, the bay numbering shows a span of bays, for example, Bays 1-4, in the Bay

column. For more information, see "Multi-blade servers (on page

163

)."

The following table describes the columns within the Server Bays Summary screen.

Double-dense server bay option

If the "Allow the double density device bays" option was selected while using the Domain Setup Wizard, VC

Manager displays the server bays as double-dense, regardless of the actual hardware installed.
For example, if a full-height server blade is installed in physical Bay 1 of a double-dense enabled enclosure,
Bay 1A and Bay 1B in VC Manager are displayed as COVERED. If a double-dense server blade is installed

in physical Bay 1, Bay 1 in VC Manager is displayed as COVERED, and Bays 1A and 1B display the

appropriate double-dense server blade information.
