While Onboard Administrator is identifying components, the progress appears as steps on the Insight Display. Discovery might take several minutes, and the number of installed mezzanine cards on each server increases the time taken as each card is identified and verified.
  • Page 13: Onboard Administrator User Interfaces

    All Superdome 2 enclosures support two enclosure link connectors that provide private communications among enclosures linked with CAT5 cable. In addition, the enclosure link-up connector provides an enclosure service port that enables you to temporarily connect a personal laptop computer to any linked enclosure Onboard Administrator for local diagnostics and debugging.
  • Page 14: Running Onboard Administrator For The First Time

    Onboard Administrator requires the user to log in to the web GUI or CLI with an account and password. The account can be a local account where the password is stored on Onboard Administrator, or an LDAP account. The Onboard Administrator contacts the defined LDAP server to verify the user credentials.
  • Page 15: Logging On To The Onboard Administrator Gui

    Affected OS Commands The machinfo command can print the firmware versions. This command may malfunction during an active online complex firmware update operation when it attempts to print the BMC firmware version, which is sourced via IPMI. Network Services to OA All network services provided by the OA are interrupted by the firmware update process.
  • Page 73: Known Issues

    Can Oracle use IPMI to reset a partition? Answer: Not during the online complex firmware update process. Do virtual partition reboots proceed during online complex firmware update? Answer: HP can not guarantee completion of a reboot during this time, so the operator should avoid initiating this action while in process.
