HP Insight Control for Linux 6.2 User Guide

• The value of MAX_CONCUR_CHAINS variable in the /opt/mx/icle/icle.properties
file.
The default value is 64.
The sum of the weight values for all the tasks running concurrently cannot exceed the value of
the MAX_CONCUR_CHAINS variable.
For example, if you wanted to run several Deploy Linux Image tasks (each of these tasks
carries a weight of 6), the sum of the first ten tasks is 60. The eleventh task would exceed the
value of the MAX_CONCUR_CHAINS variable. That eleventh task remains in a Pending state until
one of the other running tasks completes.
You can change the number of the tasks that can be run at the same time with the following
steps:
1. Edit the /opt/mx/icle/icle.properties file.
The value of the MAX_CONCUR_CHAINS variable in this file helps to determine the number
of concurrent tasks. If this variable is not specified, the default value of 64 is used.
2. Restart Insight Control for Linux.
23.9 Support for HP ProLiant DL1xx series servers
The HP ProLiant DL100 series servers use the LO100 management processor instead of the iLO
management processor. Ordinarily, these processors cannot perform many of the Insight Control
for Linux tasks because there are no PSP agents available for DL100 series systems.
23.9.1 Configuring SNMP
The Deploy→Deploy Drivers, Firmware and Agents→IC-Linux→Configure SNMP on DL1xx
Servers... menu item configures SNMP so that HP SIM can identify the server, thus allowing
an association to be formed with the server and its management processor, without requiring
PSP agents. In addition, this menu item adds support for the following:
• Power control of DL100 series servers
• RHEL Kickstart installation
• SLES AutoYaST installation
• Linux image capture and deployment
Follow this procedure to configure SNMP on a DL1xx series server:
1. Select Deploy→Deploy Drivers, Firmware and Agents→IC-Linux→Configure SNMP on
DL1xx Servers....
2. Specify the target server.
3. Verify the target server.
4. Select Run Now.
23.10 Setting up the DHCP server for virtual guests
HP recommends that you map (for the DHCP server) the MAC addresses to the IP addresses,
particularly if you want to monitor the virtual machine guests (virtual guests). Here, within the
/etc/dhcpd.conf file, is a map for virtual machines vm001 and vm002, which are used as an
example.
