Importing the Second Enclosure via GUI
In order to stack Virtual Connect we need to first implement Virtual Connect, configure a Virtual Connect
Domain within a HP BladeSystem c7000 enclosure, cable the enclosure together and then “import” the
additional enclosures into the existing VC Domain. Up to three additional HP BladeSystem c7000
enclosures can be imported. The enclosures being imported must have no Virtual Connect domain
configured, and should be considered as “bare metal”. However, the Onboard Administrator (OA) must
be configured and the VC modules within the enclosure must have TCP/IP addresses configured.
To import the second enclosure;
•
Login to the existing Virtual Connect domain of the first enclosure and select Domain Enclosures in
the left pane
•
Press the “Find” button
•
Enter the IP address and credentials for the OA of the enclosure you wish to import
•
Select the enclosure, then press the “Import” button, this may take a few minutes to complete
•
From the left pane, select Stacking Links and verify there are no stacking link errors
