VC Domain Maintenance
VC Domain Maintenance is a useful way to perform updates on a particular VC Domain without
removing it from a VC Domain Group, and apply the common domain, network and storage
configuration changes automatically to all other VC Domains that belong to the same VC Domain
Group. VCEM accomplishes this task by temporarily enabling domain, network, and storage
changes through the local VCM for the selected domain. VCEM retains control of the server
permissions while in maintenance mode. This means that operation permissions must be delegated
to the VC Domain, network, or storage roles in VCM if they are to be performed while in
maintenance mode.
Figure 30 (page 56) displays VC Domain Maintenance functions.
