Why you need itConfiguration requirement
You do not have to know the hardware configuration, but you do have to
choose an available network or network set to specify which networks the
server is to use.
Server profile must have at least one
connection, which must specify a network
or network set
You can think of a network set as an alias through which you can refer to
many different networks. If a network set contains no networks, a
connection to that network set does not result in a connection to any
networks.
If you specify a network set in a server
profile connection, the network set must
include at least 1 network
11.2 Scenario 1: Adding the enclosure to an existing enclosure group
The quickest way to add an enclosure to an appliance is to specify an existing enclosure group.
When you add an enclosure to an existing enclosure group, the enclosure is configured like the
other enclosures in the group, including the network connections.
Prerequisites
• Minimum required privileges: Infrastructure administrator or Server administrator.
• The hardware configuration of the enclosure interconnects must match the configuration
expected by the logical interconnect group that is associated with the enclosure group.
• The uplink sets for the logical interconnect group includes connections to the networks you
want to access.
• All data center switch ports that connect to the VC (Virtual Connect) interconnect modules are
configured as described in “Data center switch port requirements” (page 115).
• The networks and network sets, if any, have been added to the appliance. To add networks
or network sets, see “Quick Start: Adding a network to an existing appliance environment”
(page 95) or “Managing networks and network resources” (page 115).
• See “Prerequisites for bringing an enclosure under management” (page 131) for prerequisites
and preparation you must complete before you add an enclosure.
• See “Prerequisites for bringing server hardware under management” (page 112) for prerequisites
and preparation you must complete before you add a server.
