Figure 4. Incorrect cabling for CMC network — single CMC
Figure 5. Incorrect cabling for CMC network — 2 CMCs
To daisy-chain up to four chassis:
1 Connect the GB port of the active CMC in the rst chassis to the management network.
2 Connect the GB port of the active CMC in the second chassis to the STK port of the active CMC in the rst chassis.
3 If you have a third chassis, connect the GB port of its active CMC to the STK port of the active CMC in the second chassis.
4 If you have a fourth chassis, connect the GB port of its active CMC to the STK port of the third chassis.
5 If you have redundant CMCs in the chassis, connect them using the same pattern.
CAUTION
: The STK port on any CMC must never be connected to the management network. It can only be connected
to the GB port on another chassis. Connecting a STK port to the management network can disrupt the network and
cause a loss of data. Cabling GB and STK to the same network (broadcast domain) can cause a broadcast storm.
NOTE: Do not connect an active CMC to a standby CMC.
NOTE: Resetting a CMC whose STK port is chained to another CMC can disrupt the network for CMCs that appear
later in the chain. The child CMCs may log messages indicating that the network link has been lost and they may fail
over to their redundant CMCs.
6 To get started with CMC, see Installing Remote Access Software on a Management Station.
Instalación de software de acceso remoto en una
estación de administración
Es posible obtener acceso al CMC desde una estación de administración por medio de un software de acceso remoto, como las utilidades
de consola Telnet, Secure Shell (SSH) o serie que se incluyen con el sistema operativo, o a través de la interfaz web.
Para utilizar RACADM remoto desde su estación de administración, instale RACADM remoto utilizando el DVD Dell Systems Management
Tools and Documentation (Documentación y herramientas de Dell Systems Management) disponible con su sistema. Este DVD incluye los
siguientes componentes de Dell OpenManage:
Directorio raíz del DVD: contiene Dell Systems Build and Update Utility.
SYSMGMT: contiene productos de software de administración de sistemas, incluido Dell OpenManage Server Administrator.
Docs: contiene documentación para sistemas, productos de software de administración de sistemas, periféricos y controladoras RAID.
SERVICE: contiene las herramientas necesarias para congurar el sistema; además, proporciona los últimos diagnósticos y
controladores optimizados por Dell para el sistema.
