Managing compute sleds

OME–Modular enables you to allocate and manage compute sleds to balance workload demands.

You can view the list and details of compute sleds on the Compute page. The details are—health, power state, name, IP

address, service tag, and model of the chassis. You can also select a compute sled to view the graphical representation and

summary of the compute sled, on the right side of the Compute page.

Select a compute sled from the list to view a summary of the sled on the right side. The summary includes links to launch the

iDRAC and virtual consoles, name of the compute sled, device type, service tag, management IP, model, and health.

If you have the Compute Manager privileges, you can perform the following tasks in this tab:

● Power Control tasks:

○ Power Off (Non-graceful)

○ Power Cycle System (Cold Boot)

○ System Reset (Warm Boot)

○ Power Off (Graceful)

○

System Reseat

○ Power On

● Turn-on or turn off LEDs using Blink LED.

● Refresh Inventory.

NOTE:

When a compute sled is inserted into a chassis, sometimes the message, "No device image found", is displayed.

To resolve the issue refresh the inventory of the compute sled, manually.

After performing a power operation on compute sleds, some sleds do not transition to the intended state immediately. In such

cases, actual state of the compute sled is updated during the next health or inventory refresh.

NOTE:

If the compute sled and fabric IOM mismatch, the health status of the compute or IOM is displayed as "Warning" in

the chassis subsystem health. However, the health status is not displayed in the chassis graphical representation on the

Chassis page, I/O Modules, and Compute pages.

NOTE: Occasionally, you may see messages stating the device is offline. The messages are logged when the status poll for

the device indicates that the device transitioned to "off" from "on".

Viewing compute overview

On the compute Overview page, you can view a graphical representation of the compute on the left side. The compute

information is displayed below the graphical representation. The information includes details such as iDRAC DNS name, model,

service tag, asset service tag, express service code, management IP, system up time, populated DIMM slots, and total number

of DIMM slots in the compute. You can also see the operating system and location information details.

You can also see information under the following sections:

● Operating System Information—Displays the name, version, and hostname of the operating system that is installed on

the compute sled.

● Location Information—Displays the location details of the compute sled.
