Configuration properties
Adapter configuration properties
The following properties are configured on the target server adapters from the source server data. Properties that are common to all HP adapters include:
•SpeedDuplex—Determines the current speed and duplex of the adapter. Possible values include Auto/Auto, 10/Half, 10/Full, 100/Half, 100/Full, 1000/Full. The default is Auto/Auto. The value must be valid for the adapter on the target system.
•PreferredPrimaryRanking—Determines the preferred primary ranking of the adapter. This value is written only for adapters that are teamed.
•ConfiguredPortCost—Defines the port cost for the adapter. The default is 0. This value is written only for adapters that are teamed.
•DefaultVlanId—Determines the VLAN ID used for any un-tagged packets received by the adapter. This only applies to adapters that have VLANs defined.
•VlanID—Specifies the VLAN identifier value for the device.
•VlanName—Specifies the descriptive name for the VLAN ID. Every VLAN must have a name assigned to it. Duplicate names are allowed if you want to use the same names for different VLan IDs.
•NetworkAddress—This value is written only for adapters that are not teamed. It overrides the burned- in address with a locally administered address. A null value is always written to the XML data file because locally administered addresses must be unique. A null value is valid and indicates the network address is the burned-in address. This value must be a valid unicast address if it is edited.
HP Multifunction adapter properties
The following properties are common only to HP Multifunction adapters.
To transfer iSCSI, TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE), and Receive-Side Scaling (RSS) parameters on an adapter, the adapter must be located in the same relative position on the target machine as on the source machine.
If the following parameters are assigned to an adapter that does not support iSCSI, TOE, or RSS, they are ignored. If an adapter supports these multifunction parameters but the parameters are not assigned, the existing settings are left unchanged.
•iSCSIEnabled—Causes Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) to be configured for the adapter. 0=Disabled. 1=Enabled. The default setting is Disabled.
•iSCSIVlanId—Specifies the iSCSI VLAN identifier value for the iSCSI enabled device.
•iSCSIVlanName—Specifies the descriptive name for the iSCSI VLAN ID.
