a logical interconnect group based on the physical interconnects in that enclosure. You can
then edit that enclosure group and that logical interconnect group.
•
The uplink sets defined by the logical interconnect group establish the initial configuration of
the uplink sets of each logical interconnect associated with the logical interconnect group. If
you change uplink sets for an existing logical interconnect group:
◦ The updated uplink sets are applied to any new logical interconnects that are added to
the existing logical interconnect group.
◦ Existing logical interconnects are reported as not being consistent with the logical
interconnect group. You can then request that those existing logical interconnects be
updated with the new configuration.
After a logical interconnect has been created and associated with a logical interconnect group, it
continues to be associated with that group and reports if its configuration differs from the group.
You can then change the configuration of the logical interconnect to match the group.
Relationship to other resources
A logical interconnect group resource is associated with the following resources in the resource
summary diagram (page 32) :
•
Zero or more logical interconnects
•
Zero or more enclosure groups
The uplink sets defined by a logical interconnect group specify the initial configuration of the uplink
sets of each logical interconnect in the group.

2.13 Logical interconnects
A logical interconnect is a single entity for multiple physical interconnects
A logical interconnect is a single administrative entity that consists of the configuration of the
interconnects in an enclosure. This configuration includes:
•
Interconnects, which are required for the enclosure to connect to data center networks.
•
Uplink sets, which map data center networks to physical uplink ports. If no uplink sets are
defined, the logical interconnect cannot connect to data center networks, and the servers
attached to the downlinks of the logical interconnect cannot connect to data center networks.
•
Downlink ports, which connect through the enclosure midplane to the servers in the enclosure.
A logical interconnect includes all of the physical downlinks of all of the member interconnects.
The downlinks connect the interconnects to physical servers. The set of downlinks that share
access to a common set of networks is called logical downlinks.
•
Stacking links, which join interconnects either through connections inside the enclosure or
external cables between the stacking ports of the interconnects.
•
The firmware baseline, which specifies the firmware version to be used by all of the member
interconnects. The firmware baseline for physical interconnects is managed by the logical
interconnect.
