5. In the Propagation Properties section, select the categories of lead configuration properties to be
propagated to member chassis.
Select only those setting categories that you want identically configured, across all members of the
chassis group. For example, select Logging and Alerting Properties category, to enable all chassis in
the group to share the logging and alerting configuration settings of the lead chassis.
6. Click Save.
If On-Change Propagation is selected, the member chassis take on the properties of the leader. If
Manual Propagation is selected, click Propagate whenever you want to propagate the chosen
settings to member chassis. For more information on propagation of leader chassis properties to
member chassis, see the Online Help.
Server Inventory for MCM group
A group is a lead chassis that has 0 to 8 chassis group members. The Chassis Group Health page displays
all the member chassis and allows you to save the server inventory report to a file, using standard
browser download capability. The report contains data for:
• All servers currently in all the group chassis (including the leader).
• Empty slots and extension slots (including full height and double width server modules).
Saving Server Inventory Report
To save the server inventory report using the CMC web interface:
1. In the left pane, select the Group.
2. On the Chassis Group Health page, click Save Inventory Report. The File Download dialog box is
displayed asking you to open or save the file.
3. Click Save and specify the path and file name for the server module inventory report.
NOTE: The chassis group leader and chassis group member chassis, and the server module in
the associated chassis, must be turned on to get the most accurate server module inventory
report.
Exported Data
The server inventory report contains data that was most recently returned by each Chassis Group
member during the Chassis Group leader’s normal polling (after every 30 seconds).
To get the most accurate server inventory report:
• The Chassis Group leader chassis and all Chassis Group member chassis must be in Chassis Power
State On.
• All servers in the associated chassis must be turned on.
The inventory data for the associated chassis and servers may be missing in inventory report, if a subset of
the Chassis Group member chassis are:
• In Chassis Power State Off state
• Turned off
NOTE: If a server is inserted while the chassis is turned off, the model number is not displayed
anywhere in the web interface until the chassis is turned on again.
The following table lists the specific data fields and specific requirements for fields to be reported for
each server:
