HP XC System Software Administration Guide Version 3.2

Notes:
The -oldmp option is also required for CP6000 systems because their management processors
(MPs) have statically-set IP addresses and are not configured to use DHCP. Thus, for CP6000
systems, the command to force discovery of the MAC address of the replacement node's
boot interface is:
# /opt/hptc/config/sbin/discover --oldmp --replacenode=n3
If the HP XC system detects that the model number differs from the previous one, a message
appears and you need to rerun the cluster_config utility to ensure the node is properly
reimaged.
8. Turn on the replacement node's power:
# startsys --image_and_boot n3
9. Run the spconfig utility:
# /opt/hptc/sbin/spconfig
10. Return the node to service:
# scontrol update NodeName=n3 State=resume
If the node is a member of an availability set, you need to relocate its services back to the
node using the appropriate availability tool command.
22.3 Replacing a Server Blade OnBoard Administrator
The following procedure describes how to replace the physical Onboard Administrator for a
server blade enclosure in an HP XC system, where the head node is not a server blade.
1. Log in as superuser (root) on the head node.
2. Back up the CMDB. For information see “Backing Up the Configuration Database” (page 83).
3. Use the shownode command to find the IP address and the MAC address for the Onboard
Administrator.
