Assigning System Identification Information

System identification information is stored in Oracle ILOM, and includes the following items:

• Hostname – The hostname name assigned to the SP. This can be mapped by a DNS server and used to log in to Oracle ILOM.

• System Identifier – Additional information about the server.

• System Contact – A person to contact for issues with the server.

• System Location – A string that describes the physical location of the server.

The following procedures describe how to assign system identification information:

• Assign System Identification Information (Oracle ILOM)

• Assign System Identification Information (Oracle Hardware Management Pack)

Assign System Identification Information (Oracle ILOM)

1. Ensure that you have Admin (a) role privileges in Oracle ILOM.
2. To assign system identification information from the Oracle ILOM web interface:
   1. Log in to the Oracle ILOM web interface.
   2. In the navigation pane, click ILOM Administration → Identification.
   3. Specify one or more of the following system identifiers:

      • SP Hostname

      • SP System Identifier

      • SP System Contact

      • SP System Location

   4. Click Save.
3. To assign system identification information from the Oracle ILOM command-line interface (CLI):
   1. Log in to the Oracle ILOM CLI.
   2. Type the set command to set one or more identifiers:

      -> set /SP [hostname=hostname] [system_identifier=id] [system_contact=name] [system_location=building_floor_lab]

      For details, refer to Setting Identification Labels for a Managed Device, Oracle ILOM Getting Started Guide, Firmware Release 5.0 at Systems Management Documentation.

Assign System Identification Information (Oracle Hardware Management Pack)

1. Access the operating system command line with root privileges.
2. To set one or more identifiers, type the ilomconfig modify command:

   ilomconfig modify identification [--hostname=hostname] [--system-contact=system_contact] [--system-location=system_location] [--system-identifier=system_identifier]
