Server Node
The iBMC of each X6000 V6 server node provides an independent IP address for
external access. You can access the iBMC of any server node to manage an X6000
V6 server.
You can access the iBMC of a server node in the following ways:

The iBMCs of server nodes collaboratively manage the chassis, including the fan
modules, power supplies, and chassis assets.
NO TE
● To avoid the switch loop problem, when the multi-node management system is running
through cables, only the node with the smallest slot number functions as the master node
for server node and chassis access management, and other node connections cannot be
used for management as backup connections.
● If the management system of the active node stops running or the connection fails, the
system automatically selects the new node with the smallest slot number from the nodes
that have been connected as the active node for the access management of server nodes
and the chassis.
Access the iBMC through the management network port of a server node. (You
can access iBMCs of the four server nodes through the management network
port of any server node.)
Access the iBMC of a server node through the direct connection management
port.
