Quick setup
Setting up an appliance to be managed by an Uplogix Control Center
After you have completed the initial configuration, you can place the appliance under
management by an Uplogix Control Center element management system. You can create a
placeholder for the appliance on the server beforehand.
If there is a placeholder on the Uplogix Control Center when the Uplogix appliance contacts it,
the Uplogix Control Center automatically places the appliance in the appropriate group and
loads the appropriate configuration.
If there is no placeholder on the Uplogix Control Center, the appliance is accessible but most
management functions are unavailable until it is explicitly assigned to a group of appliances
via the Uplogix web interface.
Note:
Uplogix appliances must use the same version of software as the Uplogix Control Center
element management system (EMS) that manages them, though they do not need to use the
same patch release.
Examples:
An EMS running version 3.4 software cannot manage Uplogix appliances that have been
upgraded to version 3.5 software; nor can an Uplogix Control Center running version 3.5
software manage Uplogix appliances that are still using version 3.4 software.
An Uplogix Control Center EMS running any version 3.5.x software can manage Uplogix
appliances running any 3.5.x software.
