HP XC System Software Installation Guide Version 4.0

IMPORTANT: When you discover nodes, you must include the --extended option on
the command line if the hardware configuration contains double density blade servers such
as the ProLiant BL2x220c. The --extended option is only valid when used in conjunction
with the --nodesonly option.
A ProLiant BL2x220c has two separate nodes for each server blade, which affects internal
node numbering. This means that a c7000 enclosure can have a maximum of 32 nodes per
enclosure compared to the maximum of 16 single density server blades. A c3000 enclosure
can have a maximum of 16 nodes per enclosure compared to the maximum of 8 single density
server blades.
See Section 3.1.2 (page 51) for a description of how the --extended option calculates the
internal node names based on the maximum number of nodes in an enclosure.
Command output is similar to the following:
