or deleted from a network set, server profiles that specify the network set are isolated from the
change. One common use for network sets is as a trunk for multiple VLANs to a vSwitch.
In the resource model:
•
A network set can contain zero or more Ethernet networks.
•
An Ethernet network can be a member of zero or more network sets.
•
A connection in a server profile can specify either a network or a network set.
•
A network set cannot be a member of an uplink set.
Other configuration rules apply. For more information about network sets, including specifying the
network to handle untagged traffic, see
“About network sets” (page 138) .
Relationship to other resources
A network set resource is associated with the following resources in the resource summary
diagram (page 32) :
•
Zero or more connections , and, through those connections, zero or more server profiles
•
Zero or more Ethernet networks

2.17 Switches
Switches provide a unified, converged fabric over 10 Gb Ethernet for LAN and SAN traffic. This
unification enables network consolidation and greater use of infrastructure and cabling, reducing
the number of adapters and cables required and eliminating redundant switches.
A configuration of enclosures, server blades, and third-party devices—such as the Cisco Fabric
Extender for HP BladeSystem modules and Cisco Nexus top of rack switches—provides scalability
to manage server blades and a higher demand for bandwidth from each server with access-layer
redundancy.
The appliance provides minimal monitoring (power and state only) of switches and their associated
interconnects. See the
HP OneView Support Matrix for the complete list of supported devices.
Relationship to other resources
A Cisco Nexus top of rack switch is associated with interconnects, specifically the Cisco Fabric
Extender for HP BladeSystem modules within an enclosure, as shown in the
resource summary
diagram (page 32) .
