enclosures are displayed as c7000 enclosure models. As a result, when c7000 and c3000 enclosures are
daisy chained, and the OA is discovered, the c3000 Tower Model enclosure is displayed as a c7000
enclosure. To ensure that the daisy chained enclosures are displayed accurately, you must discover the OA
on each of these enclosures.
-------------------------------------------------------------
When WBEM protocol is enabled, incorrect drive information is displayed in the Logical Volume section
in the Performance tab for a blade server. To view the accurate drive information, disable the WBEM
protocol and enable SNMP protocol. To do so, select OptionsProtocol SettingsGlobal Protocol
Settings.
-------------------------------------------------------------
When the SNMP protocol is disabled and the WBEM protocol is enabled, the HP Integrated Lights-Out (iLO)
firmware version is displayed as Not Available in tool tip of the Picture View. To view the iLO firmware
version, enable the SNMP protocol. To do so, select OptionsProtocol SettingsGlobal Protocol
Settings.
-------------------------------------------------------------
To correctly identify the xw25p Blade Workstation, you must install HP Insight Management Agents 7.4.
-------------------------------------------------------------
To associate the Cisco Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module with the HP BladeSystem enclosure it is inserted in,
you must update the HP Insight Management Agents to 7.3 or later on at least one blade in the enclosure.
-------------------------------------------------------------
For best results, update iLO Management Controller Firmware to version 1.80 or later. HP BladeSystem
Integrated Management Manager 2.0 displays additional data about racks and enclosures environmentals
if the iLOs on the blades are running this version of firmware of later.
-------------------------------------------------------------
To associate the McDATA 4Gb SAN Switch for HP BladeSystem (firmware version 5.2.1.xx.00) or Brocade
4GbSAN Switch for HP BladeSystem (firmware version 5.0.1b) with the enclosure it is inserted in, you must
update the Server Blade Enclosure Management Module Firmware to version 2.30 or later.
HP Insight Power Manager
If you have licensed a system for Insight Power Manager and receive the following error message while
attempting to view the last data collection status on the System Page for the system, Unable to
communicate with Management Processor <mpname> in server <servername> because
the Management Processor does not have a serial number and(or) network address.
Please re-identify the Management Processor and try again., then there might be a
problem with duplicate iLOs associated with the system. Use the All Management Processors view and
identify the iLOs associated with the server. There is one iLO with its name being the IP address of the iLO
and another iLO with the serial number of the iLO as its system name. Deleting the iLO with no IP address
recorded resolves the issue.
-------------------------------------------------------------
After discovering new servers and their iLO 2 management processors using ReportsInsight Power
Manager, the task wizard indicates the server is not compatible with Insight Power Manager. Insight Power
Manager requires an association to exist between the iLO management processor and the server before
compatibility can be determined. If you attempt to use the Insight Power Manager tool before this has been
determined, you encounter this issue.
There are two solutions:
Select the iLO 2 from the system list and execute ToolsIdentify Systems to re-execute the Insight
Power Manager compatibility check.
or
Wait for 15 minutes for Insight Power Manager's periodic system management to re-determine
compatibility. After compatibility has been verified, this problem should not reoccur.
