Note
-
Operations for an L-Server included in an L-Platform using the ROR console and commands have limits. Use of the console and
moving of an L-Server (migration) between VM hosts are only possible when using the ROR console. Use of commands and moving
of an L-Server (migration) between VM hosts are only possible when using the ROR console.
-
When an L-Platform is included in a resource folder or a tenant, the L-Server under the L-Platform is not the target of batch power
operations.
-
When operating a physical server or a VM guest related to an L-Server using the server tree on the ROR console or using commands,
consider also the effects on L-Servers.
-
For virtual L-Servers with the OS type "Other", there is a possibility that the operation will not be reflected on the guest OS.
17.1 Power Operations
This section explains the power operations of L-Servers.
17.1.1 Starting an L-Server
This section explains how to startup an L-Server.
Use the following procedure to start an L-Server:
1.
Right-click the target L-Server in the orchestration tree, and select [Power]-[ON] from the popup menu.
The confirmation dialog is displayed.
2.
Click <OK>.
The L-Server is started.
On an L-Server for which only a configuration definition has been created (defined), server and disk resources will be allocated, and after
image deployment is performed (when a cloning image has been specified), the L-Server will be started.
On an L-Server which has been released (preserved), server resources will be allocated and started.
