Configuring the Rapid Deployment Pack

The following sections detail the configuration steps necessary to deploy an operating system to a

server.

The Physical Devices view in the Deployment Server Console displays the physical relationship

between the racks, enclosures, and server blades using the rack name and enclosure name for each

HP BladeSystem server. The display name for a new server blade is a combination of the rack name,

enclosure name, and bay number. Before you connect the first server in an enclosure to the

Deployment Server, assign the rack and enclosure with unique names to prevent conflicting database

entries.

If the BladeSystem servers are powered up before the rack name and enclosure name have been

changed, the names are recorded in the Deployment Server database and appear in the Deployment

Server Console. If the names are changed after being recorded in the Deployment Server database,

then the servers must be rebooted for the new rack name and enclosure name to be discovered. In

addition, the original default rack names and the default enclosure names must be manually deleted

from the console.

To change the rack name and enclosure name, follow the procedure specific to each server type:

ProLiant BL p-Class servers—Place at least one server blade in each enclosure, and before

powering up the server blade, change the rack and enclosure information using the Integrated

Lights-Out (iLO) interface. For details about accessing iLO to change the rack name and

enclosure name, see the documentation shipped with your server blade.

HP BladeSystem c-Class servers—To access the Onboard Administrator and change the rack

name and the enclosure name, see the server documentation.
