Check the System Status

Check the status of the Compute Blade with at least one Embedded 10G DCB Switch module.

(1) Checking Compute Blade power status

Check the Power LED (PWR) to see the power status of the Compute Blade

■ Green: Indicates that the main power is turned on.

Go to the next step, (2) Checking server operation status.

■ Amber: Indicates that the system is in standby state.

Go to the next step, 2. Confirm 10G DCB switch's WWN.

■ Off: Indicates that the Compute Blade does not receive power.

First, connect the Compute Blade to AC power and close its circuit breaker to turn it into standby state. Then, go to the next step, 2. Confirm 10G DCB switch's WWN.

Is it acceptable that the communication of servers with embedded DCB switch which license installation target is stopped?

Yes

No

Stop all servers and go to

Section 2 (Confirm the DCB Switch's

WWN).

You can proceed license installation.

Go to Section 2 (Confirm the DCB Switch's

WWN).

With this configuration, you need to stop all servers to proceed license installation. Wait until all servers can be stopped.

Have servers connected embedded DCB switch all stopped?

No

Yes

If the DCB Switch is operating while installing the license, the communication

lines of the Switch may be confused. This may result in loss of connection to servers or devices (such as servers and disks), which may cause system down.

If you install a license and download configuration information while servers are operating, be sure to follow the steps shown below.

write down the value in the space for "Write down here" provided below.

Write down the WWN of the DCB Switch

where the license is to be installed.

Write down here.

The WWN of the DCB Switch is necessary to obtain the license.

Since each license only covers single DCB Switch (or WWN), if the wrong WWN is

used to obtain a license, the license may not be installed in the appropriate DCB

Switch.

Be sure to check that the WWN of the DCB Switch is correct.
