3.Type in the label name, and then click Save Label.

4.To close the New Label window, click Cancel or the X.

Favorites

The Favorites feature lets you tag a label as a Favorite. All devices with that label appear in every page's sidebar (except the Settings page) under the Favorites heading. You can mark any label as a favorite, including your own labels and those created by other users.

Attach Device

The Attach Device operation creates a link so the IO Accelerator interacts with the operating system. In most cases, the operating system driver automatically attaches the installed IO Accelerators at boot time so you only need to use Attach Device when you manually detach an IO Accelerator (such as to perform a low-level format).

To attach a detached IO Accelerator and enable the operating system to interact with the device:

1.Select one or more detached IO Accelerators in the tree. They appear with the open link.

2.Click Attach Device. The IO Accelerator Management Tool asks you to confirm the attachment. If the selected drive is already attached, the Attach button is grayed out.

3.Click Attach to confirm the operation.

Attach Device connects the device. The Attach Device operation progress bar also appears in the Device Report panel indicating the percentage completed. When the Attach operation finishes, the following message appears.

When this message appears, the device is attached and available to the operating system. If the Attach Device operation fails, an error message appears.

Attaching mixed attached/detached devices

If you select a set of IO Accelerators to attach where some are attached and some are detached, the Confirm Attach dialog box displays a list of the drives and their statuses.

When you click Attach, the IO Accelerator Management Tool connects only the detached devices (those marked Ready).

Detach Device

Detach Device disconnects your IO Accelerator from the operating system. The device is not accessible to users or applications. Use Attach Device to make it accessible again. You should only need to detach an IO Accelerator to perform a low-level format or a firmware upgrade.

To detach a device:

1.Select one or more IO Accelerators from the Device Tree. You can only detach attached devices.

2.Click Detach. The IO Accelerator Management Tool console will ask you to confirm.

3.Click Detach. If the selected device is already detached, the Detach button is grayed out.

c-Class specifications

The HP c-Class is a series of high-performance blade servers designed to optimize space and improve data center efficiency. These compact systems exemplify HP's commitment to delivering powerful computing solutions that are both scalable and manageable. The c-Class offers an array of features, technologies, and characteristics that cater to diverse business needs, ensuring organizations can keep up with the demands of modern computing environments.

At the heart of the HP c-Class architecture is its innovative blade technology, enabling multiple server blades to reside within a single enclosure. This not only conserves physical space in the data center but also reduces energy consumption, ultimately lowering operational costs. The c-Class enclosure supports a variety of HP server blades, which can be tailored to meet specific workload requirements.

One of the standout features of the HP c-Class is its high-density design, allowing organizations to run numerous processors and substantial memory within a compact footprint. The system supports the latest Intel and AMD processors, offering exceptional processing capabilities. With a modular design, businesses can easily scale up resources by adding more blades as demand increases.

In terms of connectivity, the HP c-Class integrates advanced networking options. It includes embedded Ethernet and Fibre Channel switches, facilitating seamless data transfer and communications while ensuring minimal latency. The built-in redundancy features enhance reliability, making it a robust solution for critical applications.

Power and thermal management are key characteristics of the HP c-Class, with Energy Star compliance underscoring its efficiency. Intelligent power management tools allow for real-time monitoring and optimization, further contributing to reduced energy costs.

HP's Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) technology is another significant advantage. This tool provides remote management capabilities, giving IT personnel the ability to monitor the health and performance of the server blades from anywhere. The iLO feature simplifies troubleshooting and enhances system uptime.

Security features are also woven into the fabric of the HP c-Class. With options for advanced authentication and secure boot processes, organizations can protect their critical data and maintain compliance with local regulations.

In summary, the HP c-Class blade server series delivers a compelling combination of high performance, scalability, and manageability. Its advanced technologies cater to a wide range of applications, making it an ideal choice for businesses seeking to enhance their IT infrastructure while keeping costs in check. The c-Class is not just a product; it represents a strategic approach to efficient, high-capacity computing.
