HP Virtual Connect for c-Class BladeSystem Setup and Installation Guide
HP Virtual Connect Manager  56 
IMPORTANT: An Onboard Administrator user name and password with full administrative 
privileges for the selected enclosure is required. 
Enter the user name and password for the enclosure Onboard Administrator. The local enclosure is detected 
and selected automatically. If an error appears, it indicates that an invalid Onboard Administrator user name 
and password, or one without sufficient privileges, might have been used. 
After you import the remote enclosure, the OA IP address must not change. You must always assign a static 
IP address or configure it appropriately through your DHCP server. 
VCM creates a local user named "vcmuser" on the OA module. Do not modify the credentials for this user. 
Do not change the "local users" authentication setting for the OA module. 
Enclosure Import/Recovery 
After VCM has successfully established contact with the Onboard Administrator, you can create a Virtual 
Connect domain by importing the enclosure or by restoring a previously created Virtual Connect domain 
from a saved configuration file.  
If you plan to use double density server blades, select the "Enable double dense server support (Restricts 
single dense server support)" checkbox to display server device bays as double density slots. 
This option should only be selected if double-dense servers will be in use. Single-dense servers do not have 
access to I/O bays 7 and 8 when this option is selected. 
NOTE: This option cannot be modified. After the enclosure is imported, select the Display single 
dense device bays checkbox on the Domain Settings (Configuration) screen to display server 
device bays as single density slots again.
