Configuration - IBM BladeCenter Management Module User Manual

Configuration

Select the Configuration choice to:
v Define a name for a blade server.
v Enable or disable the following items on all blade servers in the BladeCenter unit:
– Local power control
– Local KVM control
– Local media tray control
– The Wake on LAN feature
v View or define the startup (boot) sequence for one or more blade servers. The
startup sequence prioritizes the following boot-record sources for a blade server:
– Hard disk drives (0 through 3). The selection of hard disk drives depends on
the hard disk drives that are installed in your blade server.
– CD-ROM
– Diskette
– Network
- PXE - Attempt a PXE/DHCP network startup the next time the selected
blade server is turned on or restarted.
Note: To use the CD-ROM drive or diskette drive as a boot-record source for a
blade server, the blade server must have been designated as the owner of
the CD-ROM drive, diskette drive, and USB port. You set ownership either
by pressing the CD/diskette/USB select button on the blade server or
through the Remote Control choice described in "Remote Control" on
page 20.
