HP OneView - Manual (Page 48)

All devices connected to an HP Intelligent Power Distribution Unit (iPDU) using an HP Intelligent
Power Discovery (IPD) connection are added to the appliance as unmanaged devices:
•
If a device is supported for management by the appliance, you can add that device to the
appliance.
•
If a device is not supported for management by the appliance, you can include that device
in power, cooling, and space planning by leaving it in the list of unsupported devices.
Other devices that do not support IPD—such as KVM switches, routers, in-rack monitors and
keyboards—are not added to the list of unmanaged devices automatically. To include these devices
in the appliance, you can add them manually and describe their names, rack positions, and power
requirements.
Relationship to other resources
An unmanaged device resource is associated with the following resources in the resource summary
diagram (page 32) :
