("xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx").
This field can be omitted in the following cases.
- When not using GLS for admin LAN redundancy on the managed server
- For a spare server whose primary servers are not using admin LAN redundancy
OS
Type
This option is displayed if the target server runs a physical OS or VM host.
Select the appropriate server OS category (Physical OS or VM host).
Selecting [VM Host] activates the user ID and password input fields. Those refer to the user name and password entered
during installation of this VM host.
Select the server OS category depending on whether the relevant server is used on a physical OS or a VM host.
For a Physical OS
Select [Windows/Linux].
For a VM Host
Select [VM Host], and enter the VM host login account information.
This login account information will be used by Resource Orchestrator to control and communicate with the registered VM
host.
User ID
Enter the user ID to log in to the VM host. Specify a user ID that has VM host administrator authority.
Password
Enter the password of the user to log in to the VM host.
Note
- For details about the network interface(s) used on the admin LAN, refer to "9.1.1 Admin LAN Network Design" in the "Design
Guide CE".
If an incorrect network interface is used, Resource Orchestrator will use a wrong MAC address for the admin LAN.
An admin LAN IP address is required even when registering a spare server.
Enter an IP address that does not conflict with the IP address of any other managed server on the admin LAN.
- A server running a VM host can still be registered as a physical OS if its [Category] of [Server OS] is set to [Windows/Linux].
(For Windows Server 2008, etc.)
A VM host server that was mistakenly registered as a physical OS should be deleted and re-registered as a VM host.
- When registering rack mount servers on which VMware ESXi is operating, select [Disable] for [Association with server
management software (ServerView)] even when using PRIMERGY servers.
After registering the server, clear the [Register agent] checkbox and register the agent after registration of the server is complete.
3. Click <OK>.
The registered server will be displayed in the server resource tree.
Note
- After registering the server, please verify that the information registered for the remote management controller is correct. This can be
verified by trying out power operations (from Resource Orchestrator) against that server. Refer to "Chapter 14 Power Control" in the
"User's Guide VE" for details on power operations.
- When using HBA address rename setup service, please confirm that the registered server can boot properly using the HBA address
rename setup service.
If the server cannot be booted properly, ensure that the specified MAC address (NIC2) is correct.
