Blade Serial Number
The blade serial number identifies the serial number for the server blade product.
Power Source
The server blade enclosure can be installed in a rack by using one of two
configurations:
Enable Automatic Power On
Each server blade can be configured to automatically power on when inserted
into the enclosure. Depending on the Power Source setting, the server blade
communicates with the rack to determine if enough power is available to power
on. If the power is available, then the server blade automatically powers on and
begins the normal server booting process.
Enable Rack Alert Logging (IML)
As the server blade receives alerts, these events can be logged to the IML. You
can view these events by using the iLO System Status—IML tab. Additional
IML viewing tools are available to allow viewing from the installed operating
system on the server blade.
Directory Settings Parameters
The following parameters provide information about the Directory Settings.
The server blade power supplies can be used to convert normal AC facility
power to 48 V DC to power the rack. In this configuration, select the power
source as Rack Provides Power. This setting enables each server blade,
enclosure, and power supply to communicate power requirements to ensure
proper power consumption without risking power failures.
If the facility can provide 48 V DC power directly, without the need for the
provided power supplies, then select Facility Provides 48V. Each server
blade will not be required to communicate with the infrastructure for power
when powering on or off.
NOTE: It is essential that proper power sizing requirements be
performed to ensure sufficient power for all the server blades and other
components of the rack.
