Manager Parameters table. In this table, you can see the OFM overview
displayed under these column headings:
v
Bay: The location of the blade.
v
Blade Name: The name of the blade at that bay location.
v
OFM Mode: Either
enabled
or
disabled
, as defined by the OFM
configuration file.
v Profile: As defined in the configuration file.
v
System Mgmt Processor OFM Capable: Displays
Yes
if the BMC (blade
systems management processor) supports OFM and
No
otherwise.
v BIOS OFM Capable:
displays
Yes
if the blade BIOS supports OFM and
No
otherwise.
Note: This value is accurate only after the blade boots for the first time after
updating the BIOS firmware.
v
OFM status: If the BMC (blade systems management processor) is
OFM-capable and the blade BIOS is OFM-capable, the status will be
N/A
(Not
Applicable), until the blade is powered on for the first time after the OFM
configuration has been enabled. The status (after blade BIOS boot is
completed) can then be: Normal , Error or Warning . If this blade OFM mode is
disabled or one of the above OFM capabilities is missing, then the status will
stay N/A even after power on of the blade
3. If you click on a Blade Name, you can see the detailed OFM configuration page
for that slot as was defined in the OFM configuration file.
The Configuration page is divided into sections of device address type:
Ethernet
,
FC
or
FC target
. In addition, this page displays information about whether devices
(attached to this slot) support OFM and if any address type and value was
consumed by any of the slot attached devices. If a OFM address was consumed,
then the Address Status column will say
Used
or
Error
, otherwise it will say
Not
Used
.
The Configuration page optionally displays a table of non-OFM devices, provided
there are such devices attached to this blade. This table has 3 columns: Slot offset ,
Port , and Address Status . If such a device (characterized by <Slot-offset , Port>) is
referred to in the OFM configuration file under this blade, the
Address Status
column will be flagged as
Warning
. Otherwise it will be flagged as
N/A
.
In general, the addresses that you see on the AMM Hardware VPD page are the
current actual addresses. After a change to the OFM configuration, the addresses
will not be updated until the next power on of the blade. To see the new addresses
you must click Reload MAC .
