Failover and check-pointing
Virtual Connect Manager runs as a high-availability pair when for HP Integrity BL8x0c i2 Series Server
Bladess are installed in horizontally adjacent interconnect bays. The active VC Manager is usually on the
lowest odd numbered bay when the enclosure is powered up.
IMPORTANT: To support high availability, always install for HP Integrity BL8x0c i2 Series
Server Bladess in horizontally adjacent interconnect bays.
If you are not using dynamic DNS, use the Onboard Administrator to access the for HP Integrity BL8x0c
i2 Series Server Blades in the primary bay. Then, you can optionally set a Virtual Connect Domain IP
address so that you have a consistent IP address to access VC Manager, whether it is running from the
primary bay or the secondary bay because of a failover.
Each time a configuration is changed, it is written to local flash memory and then check-pointed to the
standby module. Configurations can also be backed up to a workstation using the GUI or Virtual Connect
Support Utility.
NOTE: HP recommends saving a configuration after each session and before updating
firmware.
