To Add a Chassis

This section describes how to add and remove chassis dynamically within an I-Fabric.

Steps

1. Type /opt/terraspring/sbin/discoversfb1600

   Running this tool launches a command-line UI that prompts you for chassis information.

2. When prompted for the IP address of the SSC of the chassis to be discovered, type each address on a separate r line.

3. When prompted to accept the list of IP addresses, type Yes to accept or No to edit the values.

4. At the prompt, type your system controller username.

5. At the prompt, type your system controller password.

   You are then asked whether your system controller username and password are the same as your switch username and password.

6. Indicate whether the user names and passwords are the same.

   • If these user names and passwords are different, type no and provide the switch login information.

     • If the user names and passwords are the same, type yes.

7. Continue to provide the information as prompted by the UI.

   The discoversfb1600 command then attempts to discover the specified chassis. Thediscoversfb1600 command automatically adds the chassis's components, such as the server blades, SSCs, and their interconnections. The discovery process takes a few minutes to execute for each shelf.

   Example:

8. Type the device -l command to verify that the chassis has been added. See the example inUnderstanding I-Fabric Component IDs for details on how to use this command.
