Chapter 3 UIM-DIS-GEIP Installation: Standalone Profile Storage
Are you redeploying Profile systems?
Profile XP Media Platforms ordered from the factory for deployment with the
UIM-DIS-GEIP are ready to install and configure. However, if you are redeploying
existing Profile systems for operation with the UIM-DIS-GEIP, you must perform the
procedures in
Appendix A, Upgrading Existing Profile Systems for Deployment with
the UIM-DIS-GEIP on page 151 . Afterward, return to this procedure and continue
with the following step, “Rack-mount the UIM-DIS-GEIP” .
Rack-mount the UIM-DIS-GEIP
Use the instructions in the Rack Installation Guide provided with the Dell Server
documentation set to mount the UIM-DIS-GEIP in a standard 19 inch equipment rack.
You can also refer to the Dell Server Installation and Troubleshooting Guide to make
power cord, mouse, keyboard, and monitor connections at this time.
Specify host names for each UIM-DIS-GEIP
When the UIM-DIS-GEIP is connected to a Profile system, the hostname for each
UIM-DIS-GEIP must follow a strict naming convention as shown:
_UIM
As shown in the following diagram, if the UIM-DIS-GEIP is connected to a Profile
XP platform with hostname
XP1 , the UIM-DIS-GEIP hostname must be set to
XP1_UIM . Host names are not case sensitive.
NOTE: The optional 10/100BT Ethernet connection is required for Pronet
connections between Profile media platforms only. This connection is used for
Profile API communication, such as that used by Media Manager.
