Finish button.
Configuring Blades Manually through the Menu
The other method for configuring blades and switches is to manually
complete the forms that compose the Chassis option of the menu.
Consoles List Form
The Consoles list form (shown below) displays all the blades and switches
configured and supported by the BladeManager.
The form allows you to:
• Connect to a blade/Switch - When you move your cursor to the blade or
switch name, a pop-up window displays options to provide you the
following connection types: KVM/net, VM, CLI (Command Line
Interface), and Power On/Off. (These options are configured from the
Security Profile which is associated with the User and Group.)
• Add a new server blade/switch by selecting the Add button.
• Edit a blade/switch configuration by clicking on edit to invoke the
Consoles Detail form.
