Propagating Leader Chassis Properties to Member Chassis
You can apply the properties from the leader to the member chassis of a group. To synchronize a member with the leader properties:
1.
Login with administrator privileges to the leader chassis.
2.
Select the Lead chassis in the tree.
3.
Click
Setup
→
Group Administration
.
4.
In the
Chassis Properties Propagation
section, select one of the propagation types:
•
On-Change Propagation — Select this option for automatic propagation of the selected chassis property settings. The
property changes are propagated to all current group members, whenever lead properties are changed.
•
Manual Propagation — Select this option for manual propagation of the chassis group leader properties with its members.
The lead chassis property settings are propagated to group members only when a lead chassis administrator clicks
Propagate
.
5.
In the
Propagation Properties
section, select the categories of lead configuration properties to be propagated to member
chassis.
Select only those setting categories that you want identically configured, across all members of the chassis group. For example,
select
Logging and Alerting Properties
category, to enable all chassis in the group to share the logging and alerting
configuration settings of the lead chassis.
6.
Click
Save
.
If
On-Change Propagation
is selected, the member chassis take on the properties of the leader. If
Manual Propagation
is
selected, click
Propagate
whenever you want to propagate the chosen settings to member chassis. For more information on
propagation of leader chassis properties to member chassis, see the
Online Help
.
Server Inventory for MCM group
A group is a lead chassis that has 0 to 8 chassis group members. The
Chassis Group Health
page displays all the member chassis
and allows you to save the server inventory report to a file, using standard browser download capability. The report contains data for:
•
All servers currently in all the group chassis (including the leader).
•
Empty slots and extension slots (including full height and double width server modules).
Saving Server Inventory Report
To save the server inventory report using the CMC web interface:
1.
In the left pane, select the
Group
.
2.
On the
Chassis Group Health
page, click
Save Inventory Report
. The
File Download
dialog box is displayed asking you to open
or save the file.
3.
Click
Save
and specify the path and file name for the server module inventory report.
NOTE: The chassis group leader and chassis group member chassis, and the server module in the associated
chassis, must be turned on to get the most accurate server module inventory report.
Exported Data
The server inventory report contains data that was most recently returned by each Chassis Group member during the Chassis Group
leader’s normal polling (after every 30 seconds).
To get the most accurate server inventory report:
•
The Chassis Group leader chassis and all Chassis Group member chassis must be in
Chassis Power State On
.
•
All servers in the associated chassis must be turned on.
The inventory data for the associated chassis and servers may be missing in inventory report, if a subset of the Chassis Group
member chassis are:
81
