IBM 26R0881, Installation And User Manual

Page: 63 / 78

CLI command
You can apply a new configuration using the bofm CLI command. To use the
command, you must have a tftp server available for uploading the configuration
file.
Format
bofm -d [on|off] | -i <ip> |-l <file name> | -p [on|off] | -v
Options
-d: check duplicate [on|off]
-i: ip of tftp server
-l: configuration file name
-p: check blade power state [on|off]
-v: verbose mode
Usage
You will need to supply the tftp server IP address in the –i option, and the
configuration file name in the –l (similar to the update CLI command). Adding the
–d off option will cause OFM to ignore duplicate addresses in the configuration
file. Adding the –p off option causes the OFM to apply the configuration even on
powered-on blades. These parameters default to
″
on
″
.
Events
There are a few OFM-related events:
1. If the OFM configuration changes for a slot, then an information event is
generated for that slot.
2. If a slot has OFM configuration enabled and the system management processor
of the blade in that slot does not support OFM, then a warning event is
generated.
3. If a slot has OFM configuration enabled and the blade’s BIOS in that slot does
not support OFM, then a warning event is generated.
4. If a slot has OFM configuration enabled and any device in that slot does not
support OFM, thean a warning event is generated.
5.
If any of the adapters reported a OFM error, then a warning event is generated.
6. If the AMM was unable to apply a OFM configuration to a blade for which the
system management processor supports OFM, then the blade is not given
power permission and an error event is generated for that blade.
7. If the AMM cleared the OFM configuration after moving to a new chassis, then
a warning alert is generated.
8. If the AMM discovered that a OFM configuration is in use by a blade that is
powered on and it is different from the configuration defined on the AMM,
then a warning event is generated.
