This topic describes how to discover a BladeCenter® chassis automatically.
The management server and the BladeCenter chassis must be connected
to the network and on the same subnet. One of the following conditions must
be true also:
- The network contains a DHCP server that has assigned an IP address to
the management module.
- The default IP address of the management module has been changed to a
valid IP address on the same subnet as the management server.
Complete the following steps to discover a BladeCenter chassis
automatically:
- Start IBM Director Console.
- Click . The discovery operation
begins. When it is completed, the BladeCenter chassis managed object
is displayed in the Group Contents pane.
Note: The discovery operation might take several minutes, depending
on the number of blade servers, management modules, and switch modules that
are installed in the BladeCenter chassis.
