Section M13: Adding New Racks Based on Location Discovery Services
Racks are automatically created based on LDS. HP ProLiant Servers or HP BladeSystem enclosures mounted in HP
Intelligent Series Racks are automatically grouped in racks in the proper positions. The initial rack names are provided by
the Rack Serial Number.
Section M14: Adding Enclosures to Racks without Location Discovery Services
If no LDS is present, HP BladeSystem enclosures automatically create an enclosing rack in HP CI Mgmt during the discovery
process, based upon the name configured in the HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator.
• Use of BladeSystem management stacking link cables up/down for all enclosures in a rack is encouraged – it causes a
single rack to be created per set of enclosures and the enclosures will be in the proper order in the rack. Specific slot
