keying errors. For interconnect modules, Onboard Administrator provides virtual power control, dedicated serial consoles, and management Ethernet connections. While Onboard Administrator is identifying components, the progress appears as steps on the Insight Display. Discovery might take several minutes, and the number of installed mezzanine cards on each server increases the time taken as each card is identified and verified.
All Superdome 2 enclosures support two enclosure link connectors that provide private communications among enclosures linked with CAT5 cable. In addition, the enclosure link-up connector provides an enclosure service port that enables you to temporarily connect a personal laptop computer to any linked enclosure Onboard Administrator for local diagnostics and debugging.
Onboard Administrator requires the user to log in to the web GUI or CLI with an account and password. The account can be a local account where the password is stored on Onboard Administrator, or an LDAP account. The Onboard Administrator contacts the defined LDAP server to verify the user credentials. Two-factor Authentication enables even tighter security for the user management session to Onboard Administrator.
Logging on to the Onboard Administrator GUI Enter the user name and initial administration password for your HP Superdome 2 Onboard Administrator account found on the tag attached to the Onboard Administrator. Possible issues that might occur when logging in include: • Entering the information incorrectly. Passwords are case-sensitive. • The account information entered not being set up for HP Superdome 2 Onboard Administrator. • The user name entered has been deleted, disabled, or locked out.

Enclosure Bay IP Addressing screen The Onboard Administrator EBIPA feature is intended to help you provision a fixed IP address to a particular bay in an enclosure. The components plugged into the bays are set for DHCP, and interconnect modules are configured to use the internal management port to Onboard Administrator. If the component is configured for a static IP address, an EBIPA assignment to that bay has no effect.
EBIPA Settings screen For information on how to set up EBIPA, see (page 91). Directory Groups screen LDAP is an open protocol for accessing information directories. While LDAP is based on the X.500 standard, it is significantly simpler. LDAP supports TCP/IP, which enables applications to work independently of the server hosting the directory. Use the Directory Group screen to set directory access for the now selected enclosures.
On this screen, you can configure directory groups. For possible values and descriptions of each box, see “Directory Groups” (page 149). Directory Settings screen Use the Directory Settings screen to set directory access for the now selected enclosures. Using the Directory Settings screen, you can configure the following settings: • Enable LDAP Authentication: Enables a directory server to authenticate a user login.
Onboard Administrator Network Settings screen Use the Onboard Administrator Network Settings screen to modify network settings for all the Onboard Administrator modules in the selected enclosures. Settings for Standby Onboard Administrator modules appear only if the modules are present. Options for DHCP and static IP are supported. • Use DHCP for all Active Onboard Administrators: Get the IP address for the Onboard Administrator from a DHCP server.
For possible values and descriptions of each box, see “SNMP Settings screen” (page 94). Power Management screen IMPORTANT: In a complex with one or more failed power supplies, it is possible for attempts to power on servers to fail if the resulting power allocation would result in the Power Redundancy Status becoming Failed. The administrator must explicitly reduce the redundancy setting to enable powering on servers prior to the failed power supplies being serviced.
The Superdome 2 enclosure power management system enables you to customize the configuration of the enclosure. You can select from the various modes on the Onboard Administrator Power Management screen. The power modes are explained in the following table. 52 Mode Insight Display name Description Redundant Redundant For dc power supplies only.
Mode Insight Display name Description that an ac line feed failure does not cause the enclosure to power off. Power Supply Redundant Power Supply Up to six upper and six lower power supplies can be installed with one upper and one lower power supply always reserved to provide redundancy. In the event of a single upper or lower power supply failure, the redundant power supply in the same section (upper or lower) takes over the load.
Click the Finish button to save and exit the First Time Setup Wizard. The First Time Setup Wizard screen closes and you are returned to the default main screen of the Superdome 2 Onboard Administrator.
5 Navigating Onboard Administrator Navigation overview The main HP Superdome 2 Onboard Administrator navigation system consists two views: • Tree view: Lists all of the complex devices on the left side of the main page and remains visible at all times. • Graphical view: Displays a physical picture of the enclosures in the complex. You can navigate the devices and functions in a complex through either of these views.
One of the main purposes of the tree view is to enable navigation using categories based on the major systems within the complex. When a category is expanded (by clicking the white plus icon on the blue box to the left of the category), an icon next to the category name can indicate a degraded status of the affected system. In the case of multiple components reporting status, the status icon indicates a cumulative worst-case status of all the devices in the same category.
Category summary pages Category summary pages contain summary information for each of the devices in that category. For example, clicking the Device Bays link opens the Device Bay Summary screen. Each parent element in the tree works in this manner. When you click a category summary link, no devices are selected in the graphical view navigation.
Selecting a device To select a device, click the graphical representation of the device in the front or rear graphical view. When you select a device, its border changes from gray to light blue indicating that it is the now selected device. Selecting a device in the graphical view selects the corresponding device in the left navigation tree view. Every time you select a device from any part of the navigation system, the rest of the navigation reflects the device selection event and updates accordingly.
and a padlock icon appears in the bay table cell, indicating that the bay is locked to the current user. The user cannot select a locked bay. When the user hovers the mouse over the locked bay, a message appears, indicating that the user does not have permission to access devices in that bay. Minimizing the graphical view To minimize the graphical view from the main display, click the box with the arrow, located directly to the left of the name of the enclosure in the graphical view box.

new partition firmware packages (system firmware) will require a partition reboot to activate, but the timing of such an operation can be done on an individual nPartition basis as determined by the operator to best fit their individual needs. When performing an online complex firmware update, Superdome 2 server management capabilities are inactive, and this is something which operators should keep in mind.
packages in the bundle which must be updated, but is not expected to exceed 150 minutes under any conditions. Typical firmware updates will take less time to complete. IPMI During the process of an online complex firmware update, no IPMI requests can be serviced until the update completes. This means that partition configuration changes, including iCAP changes, will not be allowed.
Console When the firmware update is in progress, the OS console cannot be serviced on the server management side. Since all active sessions to the OA CLI and GUI interfaces are closed at the beginning of the firmware update process, the OS console cannot be actively viewed during this process.
Affected OS Commands The machinfo command can print the firmware versions. This command may malfunction during an active online complex firmware update operation when it attempts to print the BMC firmware version, which is sourced via IPMI. Network Services to OA All network services provided by the OA are interrupted by the firmware update process.
1. Can Oracle use IPMI to reset a partition? • 2. Do virtual partition reboots proceed during online complex firmware update? • 3. Answer: Kernel memory (dmesg), the OS syslog, and crashdump memory is unaffected, so this will not inhibit debug for OS-related events. The loss of event logs during the firmware update process is unavoidable (as it was on legacy sx2000 Superdome systems), but the SEL will indicate start and finish times for the update process.
NOTE: This issue only pertains to newly created guests that have never been started. Guests that have been started at least once prior to the Online Firmware Update will start without any problems. Serviceguard Manager performance degradation and proxy errors Serviceguard Manager may experience some performance degradation or report proxy errors during Superdome 2 Online Firmware Update. These issues do not adversely affect the Serviceguard cluster or applications being managed by Serviceguard.
