N1 Provisioning Server 3.1, Blades Edition, System Administration Guide

ProcedureTo Add Server Blades and Switch and System Controllers

Steps
  1. Begin synchronization of the CPDB with the discovery of the chassis's physical state by entering the server blade's IP address or device ID when prompted to do so.

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

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

      You are asked whether the system controller user name and password are the same as the switch user name and password.

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

      • If the 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.

      When the discovery process has completed successfully, the actual synchronization process begins.

  2. When prompted to either type q for exiting or the line number for the recommended action, enter the line number.

  3. When asked whether to add the device, type y

  4. When all recommended actions are completed or you do not want to complete the remaining recommended actions, type q to exit.

  5. When prompted to either resynchronize the shelf with its saved state, to synchronize another chassis, or to exit, make the appropriate selection for synchronizing all the chassis you want to have synchronized.

  6. Type 3 at the prompt to exit.


Example 2–2 Sample Actions for Adding Server Blades and SSCs


/opt/terraspring/sbin/shelfsync
Begining synchronization of the I-Fabric's database with an SFB1600's
physical state.

Enter SFB1600 management IP address or the device ID: 10.5.132.65
Database query in progress. Please wait.
Found: ipaddr="10.5.132.65" shelfid="50200" powerid="50260"
Checking network connectivity to 10.5.132.65....Done. Network connectivity:
OK


Attempting discovery of the specified SFB1600 device.
Management interface user name: admin
Password: 
Are the switch user name and password the same as the management user name
and password? [yY/nN]y

Is there any new switch added to the shelf that you want to bench
configure? [yY/nN]n
Device discovery for 10.5.132.65 in progress. Please wait.

Writing WML output to /var/tmp/deviceWML.29789
