Modular Enclosure

NOTE: For the purposes of Server Administrator, modular enclosure refers to a system that may contain one or more modular systems that appear as a separate Server Module in the system tree. Like a stand-alone Server Module, a modular enclosure contains all of the essential components of a system. The only difference is that there are slots for at least two Server Modules within a larger container, and each of them is as complete a system as a Server Module.

To view the modular system’s chassis information and Chassis Management Controller (CMC) information, click the Modular Enclosure object.

•Tab: Properties

•Subtab : Information

Under the Properties tab, you can:

•View the chassis information for the modular system being monitored.

•View detailed Chassis Management Controller (CMC) information for the modular system being monitored.

Accessing And Using Chassis Management Controller

To launch the Chassis Management Controller Log in window from the Server Administrator home page:

1.Click the Modular Enclosure object

2.Click the CMC Information tab, and then click Launch the CMC Web Interface. The CMC Log in window appears.

You can monitor and manage your modular enclosure after connecting to the CMC.

System/Server Module Properties

The System/Server Module object contains three main system component groups: Main System Chassis/ Main System , Software , and Storage . The Server Administrator home page defaults to the System object of the system tree view. Most administrative functions can be managed from the System/Server Module object action window. The System/Server Module object action window has the following tabs, depending on the user's group privileges: Licensing, Properties, Shutdown, Logs, Alert Management, and Session Management
