OS is Not Preloaded onto the Server Blade
There are two options on how to load the OS if it is not preloaded onto your server blade. Option one is to load
the OS from a DVD/CD. See “Installing the OS onto the Server Blade” in Chapter 8 to do this. Option two is to
load the OS using HP-UX Ignite. see “Loading the OS Using HP-UX Ignite” on page 63.
Loading the OS Using HP-UX Ignite
To install the OS using HP-UX Ignite, see: http://docs.hp.com/en/IUX/.
NOTE See “LAN Ports on the Server Blade Enclosure” on page 63 for EFI or HP-UX LAN
configuration information.
HP-UX Login Prompt
If your server blade is at the HP-UX login prompt after you have established a connection to the server blade,
use your standard OS log in procedures, or see your OS documentation for next steps.
LAN Ports on the Server Blade Enclosure
This section shows the location of the RJ-45 LAN ports on the back of the server blade enclosure, and how
they correspond with the Network Interface Controller (NIC) LEDs on the front of the server blade.
LAN / NIC Configuration
Table 7-1 shows how the EFI and HP-UX LAN ports and front panel NIC numbers match up on the server
blade enclosure.
Port Locations on the Rear of the Server Blade Enclosure
The sever blade enclosure has eight rows of RJ-45 LAN ports. The rows correspond with the eight blade slots
of the enclosure. Each row has four ports (two on each side of the enclosure). The rows correspond with the
four NIC ports per server. See Figure 7-1 for the port locations.
