Edit a Server Profile (single profile) screen
Use this screen to edit the properties of an existing server profile. This screen enables you to do the
following:
• Change the profile name
• Add, delete, or change network connections
• Change the network port speed settings
• Enable or disable PXE
• Modify Fibre Channel connection settings (if there are one or more VC Fibre Channel modules in the
Virtual Connect domain)
• Assign, unassign, or re-assign the profile to a device bay
• Copy the profile
• Delete the profile
If VC-assigned MAC addresses, WWNs, or non-default Fibre Channel boot parameters are being used,
the server blade must be powered off before any server side changes can be made. To power off a server
blade, see "Server Bay Status screen (on page 149)." Changes to Ethernet network and Fibre Channel
fabric settings can be made without powering down the server. For complete information on server power
requirements when assigning or removing server profiles, see "Server profile troubleshooting (on page
115)."
The screen can be edited only by users with server privileges, but it is viewable by all authorized users.
