Control Panel Features Description USB ports for keyboard and mouse Icon Description USB port 1 connects to the mouse and USB port 2 connects to the keyboard. NOTE: The USB ports are functional if an optional iKVM module is installed and front panel ports are enabled (default setting) in the CMC interface. NOTE: These ports do not support USB storage devices. Only connect USB storage devices to the USB ports on the front panel of the blade.
3. selection ("check") button LCD Module Features The primary function of the LCD module is to provide real-time information on the health and status of the modules in the enclosure. LCD module features include: • • • • • • • • • A deployment setup wizard that allows you to configure the CMC module’s network settings during initial system set up. Menus to configure the iDRAC in each blade. Status information screens for each blade.
Configuration Wizard The CMC is preset for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). To use a static IP address, you must toggle the CMC setting from DHCP to a static address by either running the LCD configuration wizard, or by using a management station and CLI commands. For more information, see the CMC documentation at support.dell.com/manuals. To set up a network using the LCD configuration wizard: 1. If you have not already done so, press the chassis power button to turn it on.

NOTE: It is recommended that you isolate chassis management from the data network. Dell cannot support or guarantee uptime of a chassis that is improperly integrated into your environment. Due to the potential of traffic on the data network, the management interfaces on the internal management network can be saturated by traffic intended for servers. This results in CMC and iDRAC communication delays.
Create separate chains for the CMCs in the active CMC slot and the second CMC slot. NOTE: At least one CMC must be installed for the system to power up. If a second, optional CMC module is installed, failover protection and hot-swap replacement is available. See the latest CMC User's Guide at support.dell.com/ manuals for complete instructions on how to set up and operate the CMC module.

Set up your system and know the system technical specifications Getting Started Guide Install the operating system Operating system documentation at dell.com/ operatingsystemmanuals Get an overview of the Dell Systems Management offerings Dell OpenManage Systems Management Overview Guide at dell.com/openmanagemanuals Install, configure, and use the Chassis Management Controller (CMC) CMC User’s Guide at dell.
2 Initial system configuration Before You Begin CAUTION: The enclosure power supplies must be connected to a Type B or permanently-connected PDU and not directly to an electrical outlet. The AC power supplies require a 100 V to 120 V or 200 V to 240 V power source. You can select only one AC power input, as the system does not operate at both ranges simultaneously. For DC power supplies, plug the other end of the power cables to a branch circuit-protective ground DC power source of –(48–60) V DC.
NOTE: The serial null modem cable for the CMC is an option. You can access the CLI using the 17th blade feature on the embedded iKVM module. Blade number 17 is a direct local connection to the CMC. 1. Choose a language from the options in the dialog box. 2. Start the LCD configuration wizard. 3. Configure the CMC network settings for your network environment.
Logging In To The CMC Using The Web-Based Interface 1. Open a supported web browser window. For current information on supported web browsers, see the CMC User’s Guide at support.dell.com/manuals. 2. Log in to the CMC. • If the CMC is accessed using a specific IP address, type the following URL in the Address field, and then press . https:// The default IP address for the CMC is 192.168.0.120.
4. Click an available user ID number. The User Configuration page is displayed. To refresh the contents of the Users page, click Refresh. To print the contents of the Users page, click Print. 5. Select general settings for the users. For details on user groups and privileges, see the CMC User’s Guide at support.dell.com/manuals. 6. Assign the user to a CMC user group. You can customize the privileges settings for the user by using the check boxes.
1. Log in to the CMC web-based interface. 2. Select Chassis in the system tree. 3. Click the Power Management tab. The Power Budget Status page is displayed. 4. Click the Configuration sub-tab. The Budget/Redundancy Configuration page is displayed. 5. Configure the power budget and redundancy settings based on the components in the enclosure and your needs. 6. Click Apply to save your changes.
6. Click Update. A dialog box prompts to confirm the action. 7. Click Yes to continue. The firmware transfer process begins and the status displays the message Firmware Update in Progress. After the CMC update is complete, the CMC is reset and you must refresh the User Interface page to log in again. Updating The CMC Firmware Using RACADM 1. Open a CMC command line console and log in. 2.
Tiering The Avocent iKVM Switch From An Analog KVM Switch The Avocent iKVM switch can be tiered from analog KVM switches such as the Dell 2160AS and 180AS, as well as many Avocent analog KVM switches. Many switches may be tiered without the need for a SIP. The cabling requirements for specific external switches are as follows: • • Dell PowerConnect 180AS, 2160AS (version 1.0.3.2 or later) or Avocent Autoview 2020, 2030 (version 1.6.0.
Resynchronizing The Server List At The Remote Client Workstation Once the iKVM module is connected, the blades are displayed in OSCAR. You must re-synchronize the servers on any remote workstation to ensure that the blades are available to any remote users connected to the console switch through the Remote Console Switch software. NOTE: This procedure only re-synchronizes one remote client workstation.
FlexAddress allows the CMC to assign WWN/MAC IDs to a particular slot and override the factory IDs. If the server module is replaced, the slot-based WWN/MAC ID remains the same. This feature eliminates the need to reconfigure Ethernet network management tools and SAN resources for a new server module. Additionally, the override action only occurs when a server module is inserted in a FlexAddress enabled chassis; no permanent changes are made to the server module.

4 Installing Enclosure Components NOTE: To ensure proper operation and cooling, all bays in the enclosure must be populated at all times with either a module or with a blank.
CAUTION: To protect the I/O connector pins, install the I/O connector covers any time a blade is removed from the enclosure. NOTE: A full-height blade requires four connector covers and a half-height blade requires two connector covers. 5. Install the I/O connector cover over the I/O connector. Figure 37.

Installing A Blade 1. If you are installing a new blade, remove the plastic cover from the I/O connector(s) and save for future use. 2. Orient the blade so that the blade handle is on the left side of the blade. CAUTION: If you are installing a full-height blade in bays 3 or 4 or a half-height blade in bays 11 or 12, rotate the LCD module to the horizontal storage position to prevent accidental damage to the LCD screen. 3.
