Users Guide

Associate with SlotYou can associate profiles to blade servers. The profile is extracted from the server and is attached
to the slot containing the server.
Migrate ProfileYou can migrate a profile from one server to another. The system unassigns the identity from the first
server before the migration. If the unassignment fails, the system displays a critical error. You can override the error and
force the migration to a new server.
NOTE: The Migrate Profile option is not supported for slot-based template deployment.
Edit ProfileYou can edit the profile characteristics that are unique to the device or slot. If a profile is attached to a
compute, the updated profile configuration is propagated to the compute.
Remove slot associationsYou can detach the server profile from the slot.
Detach ProfileYou can remove profiles that are associated with blade servers. After the server profile is detached, the
identity pools are reclaimed from the MAC address pools. Detaching a profile reclaims the Identities from the device,
based on the last deployed template or profile. If the last deployed template does not have the MAC Identities
association, the MAC Identities that are already deployed are not reclaimed.
In MCM environment, if the compute sled on the member chassis is not reachable you can detach the profile from the
lead chassis using the Detach profile option. The status of the On Detach profile Reclaim Identities task on the
Jobs page in the lead chassis is displayed as Completed. However, the On Detach profile Reclaim Identities job fails
in the member chassis.
If the compute sled on the stand-alone chassis is not reachable and you try detaching the profile, the On Detach profile
Reclaim Identities job fails.
NOTE: The Reclaim Identities feature in OME-Modular works for both scenarios.
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.
Configuring compute settings
You can configure the following compute settings:
Network
Management
Configuring compute network settings
Once Quick Deploy settings are applied to a compute sled, the settings may be reported after some time due to data refresh in
OME-Modular.
To configure the compute network settings:
1. Click Devices > Compute > View Details > Settings > Network.
2. In the General Settings section, select the LAN Enablement check box to configure the network settings.
3. Configure the IPv4, IPv6, and management VLAN settings.
Configuring compute management settings
To configure the compute management settings:
1. Click Devices > Compute > View Details > Settings > Management.
2. Configure the password to access the iDRAC console and select IPMI over LAN to enable access from OMEModular to
iDRAC, through BIOS.
Replacing compute sleds
The rip-and-replace feature of OME-Modular enables you to replace a failed compute sled, storage sled, or IOM, and apply the
configuration automatically.
