N1 Provisioning Server 3.1, Blades Edition, Control Center Management Guide

ProcedureHow To Check Resource Availability

Steps
  1. Access the SP by using Telnet.

  2. Use the following command to check for available resources for this farm request:

    rsck farm ID

  3. If you wish to see a list of free devices in an I-Fabric, type the following command:

    device -LFt type

  4. If the farm does not have adequate internal subnets, you can add additional subnets as required by using the following command:

    subnet -cm mask_length starting_IP_address

  5. If there are not sufficient external subnets available, you might need to consult your network administrator to find the address space available for your use. If you know which subnet to add, you can add the subnet by using the following subnet command:

    subnet -xcm mask_length starting_IP_address


    Note –

    The control plane server allocates any address space with the correct subnet mask.


  6. If the farm has an Ethernet port device, that is, a device external to the I-Fabric, you must connect and configure the device manually as described in Configuring the Ethernet Port Element for Unmanaged Devices.
