Discovering Model G00 Appliances
Any Model G00 appliance, or other IBM appliance, that is running and is connected
to the same subnet as the system running the Advanced Appliance Configuration
Utility console is automatically discovered when you start the Advanced Appliance
Configuration Utility console. Discovered appliances appear in the Advanced
Appliance Configuration Utility console tree view (in the left pane of the Advanced
Appliance Configuration Utility console window). Each appliance will appear in two
locations in the tree view:
1. Every discovered appliance is listed in the tree view under All Appliances.
2. Each discovered appliance will also appear in one of the following portions of
the tree view:
v
In a Family
If the discovered appliance fits the requirements of a Family, it will
automatically appear as part of a Family.
Note: If a discovered appliance fits the requirements of more than one
Family, it is automatically added to the first appropriate Family that is
listed in the tree view, starting from the top of the tree. For information
on how to move appliances between families, see “Using Families and
Groups in the Tree View” on page 11.
v
In the Orphaned Appliances group
If the discovered appliance does not fit a previously configured Family, it is
placed in the Orphaned Appliances group.
v
In the Orphaned Externally Configured Appliances group
Appliances that are running the Advanced Appliance Configuration Utility
agent, but that have a network configuration that was not set by the
Advanced Appliance Configuration Utility agent or console, will appear in the
Orphaned Externally Configured Appliances group. If an appliance is
contained in the Orphaned Externally Configured Appliances group, you can
use the Adopt By First Matching Family function to add it to a previously
defined Family. For more information, see “Using the Adopt by First Matching
Family Function” on page 13.
