1. Export the server profiles from the VC Domain to the target VC Domain Group (and leave the
server profiles unassigned). The VCEM export operation will match all resources in use by
server profile and change the necessary elements to allow the migration to complete.
2. Select Overwrite Configuration to add the VC Domain to the target VC Domain Group. VCEM
overwrites the VC Domain with the VC Domain’s configuration.
3. Edit the server profiles exported in the first step, and select the available resources such as
networks, fabrics, network access groups, IGMP filters and so on.
4. Assign the server profile to the server bay.
Removing a VC Domain from a VC Domain Group
IMPORTANT:
•
If you remove the last VC Domain from a VC Domain Group, the unassigned server profiles
will be located in this VC Domain.
•
VC firmware supports no more than 256 server profiles within the VC Domain. If this number
is exceeded, VCM can reset.
VCEM detects the presence of logical server managers or upper-level managers. When performing
a specific task, a dialog box appears explaining the impact of performing the task from outside
the logical server manager or upper-level manager.
IMPORTANT: VCEM has detected you may be using other products, such as
HP Matrix Operating Environment. Removing this VC Domain from its VC
Domain Group will make it and any Server Profiles in this VC Domain
unmanageable by this upper level manager. Type YES to proceed with this
operation.
To proceed, enter YES, and then click OK. (VCEM will not proceed if you cut and paste YES into
the field.)
MAC, WWN, and serial number ranges enable VCM to manage the allocation of new addresses
when you release VC Domain control back to VCM (such as when you delete a VC Domain Group
or remove the VC Domain from a VC Domain Group). HP recommends that you provide MAC,
WWN, and serial number ranges that are not being used by VCEM or by any other VC Domain
in your network.
You can click Remove from VCD Group only if the current selection contains VC Domains that
belong to VC Domain Groups.
After removing a VC Domain from a VC Domain Group, you can edit or change the existing server
profiles from the VCM user interface. If you re-import the VC Domain into a different VC Domain
Group, perform the import operation in VCEM and also make any further changes through VCEM.
NOTE: Removing the VC Domain out of the VC Domain Group does not cause any changes to
the MACs or WWNs currently in use in the VC Domain. Any new MACs or WWNs assigned
through VCM after the VC Domain has been removed from the VC Domain Group will be assigned
from the ranges designated when the VC Domain was removed from the VC Domain Group. See
“Managing MAC and WWN addresses” (page 132) for more information.
To remove one or more VC Domains from a VC Domain Group:
1.
From the VC Domains page, select the VC Domains to be removed.
2. Click Remove from VC Domain Group.
The Remove VC Domains Group information from the VC Domain Group appears.
