Creating New Network Resources - Fujitsu ServerView Resource Orchestrator Cloud Edition V3.1.0 User Manual

Network resources can be created using the following methods:
-

Creating new network resources

Refer to "14.3.1 Creating New Network
-
Creating network resources using already registered admin LAN subnets
Refer to "14.3.2 Creating Network Resources Using Already Registered Admin LAN
The network resource for the admin LAN that is directly connected from the manager is automatically created with the values of
"AdminLan" for the network resource name and "1" for the VLAN ID.
To change these values, delete "AdminLan", and then create a new network resource following the procedure provided in
Network Resources Using Already Registered Admin LAN
When configuring the subnet settings in network resources, confirm that the following IP addresses are not included in the subnet scope.
Set them as excluded addresses when they are included in the subnet scope.
-
IP address for detected, unregistered servers
-
IP address of VM management software
-
Admin LAN IP address for LAN switch blade
-
IP address for default gateway
-
iRMC address

Admin IP address for network device
14.3.1 Creating New Network Resources
Use the following procedure to create a new network resource and register it in a network pool:
When using VMware as server virtualization software, and using the same VLAN for both the service console and the port group, configure
the port group name to be excluded from network auto-configuration in the "VMware Excluded Port Group Definition Files" beforehand.
An L-Server can be created, even if there are multiple port groups which have the same VLAN.
When a user wants to perform network auto-configuration using an arbitrary physical NIC, specify a physical LAN segment of a server
NIC definition from network resources, defining a physical NIC to use for the server NIC definitions. To reflect the physical NIC
configuration specified in the server NIC definition file on Resource Orchestrator, use the rcxadm nicdefctl commit command.
The command operations enable the network auto-configuration to perform in the configurations using arbitrary physical NICs.
