HP Virtual Connect 4Gb Fibre Channel Module for c-Class BladeSystem - Manual (Page 56)

Command line 56
profile
Manage server profiles.
Supported actions: add, assign, help, remove, set, show, unassign
Item Description
add profile Create a new server profile. After the profile has been created, the profile can then
be configured using the "set" subcommand, and the additional network, fabric,
and FCoE connections can also be added. The server profile can also be assigned
to a device bay using the "assign" subcommand.
Syntax
add profile [-NoDefaultEnetConn]
[-NoDefaultFcConn] [-NoDefaultFcoeConn]
[SNType=]
[SerialNumber=] [UUID=]
Parameter
ProfileName The unique name of the new server profile to create
Options
NoDefaultEnetConn Do not add default Ethernet Network connections when creating the server profile.
NoDefaultFcConn Do not add default FC SAN connections when creating the server profile.
NoDefaultFcoeConn Do not add default FCoE SAN connections when creating the server profile.
Properties
SNType (Optional) The source of the serial number assignment to be used during the profile creation.
If not specified, the serial number is assigned according to the Virtual connect
default domain settings. Valid values include "Factory-Default" and "User-Defined".
SerialNumber
(required if the
SNType is
User-Defined)
A custom user-defined serial number associated with the server profile. When the
profile is assigned to a device bay that contains a server, the server inherits the
virtual serial number. The user-defined serial number must start with the pattern
VCX01.
UUID (Optional) A unique 128-bit identifier for the virtual server ID. The format is
xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx, where x is any alpha-numeric character. If
no UUID is specified, then one is auto-generated. The UUID can be specified only if
the SNType is User-Defined.
