Import Hardware Configuration (Oracle System Assistant 1.2)
The system creates the xml files, zips them, and writes the zip file to the destination selected by
the transfer method.
Import Hardware Configuration (Oracle System
Assistant 1.2)
Use this task to import RAID, Oracle ILOM, and BIOS configuration information from xml
files into your server. When you execute the import, the system configures the corresponding
hardware to match the information in the xml files.
Caution -
Loss of service: If the information in the xml files is not configured correctly, or if it
was exported from a mismatched system, it could disable your server.
The xml files should be generated using the Export Hardware Configuration function described
in “Export Hardware Configuration (Oracle System Assistant 1.2)” on page 143 .
Before You Begin
You must have an xml file for each configuration that you import, and these must be included in
a single zip file.
The content of the xml files must be accurate and complete. The system used to export the file
must match the system where the file is imported. They must have the same:
■
Model number
■
Oracle ILOM and BIOS versions
■
Disk drive configuration
■
Option cards
1. Select Advanced > Import Hardware Configuration.
The Import Hardware Configuration window appears.
2. Select the configurations to import.
If you select Service Processor Configuration, type and confirm the Passphrase.
3. Select a transfer method.
