Process

When you add a network to the appliance, you might need to make configuration changes to the following resources:

Resource

Task

Description

Networks

1. Add the network.

Adding a network does not require that you take resources offline.

For more information about networks, see “Managing networks and network resources” (page 115), the online help for the Networks screen, or the REST API scripting help for networks and network sets.

Logical

Interconnect

Groups

Logical Interconnects (one or more)

2.Add the network to an uplink set.

3.Do one of the following:

Add the network to an uplink set.

Update the logical interconnect from the group.

When you add a network to an appliance, it is immediately available. However, for a server blade to connect to that network, the network must be included in an uplink set on the logical interconnect for that server blade, and the server profile for the server blade must include a connection to either the network or a network set that includes the network.

You can either add the network to an existing uplink set or create a new uplink set for the network.

Changing the configuration of an uplink set does not require that you take resources offline.

Configuration changes made to a logical interconnect group are not automatically propagated to the member logical interconnects. However, by changing the logical interconnect group, for each logical interconnect, you can update it with a single action.

For more information, see “Managing interconnects, logical interconnects, and logical interconnect groups” (page 121), the online help for the Logical Interconnect Groups screen, or the REST API scripting help for logical interconnects and the REST API for the uplink-setsresource.

Changing the configuration of an uplink set does not require that you take resources offline.

Configuration changes made to a logical interconnect group are not automatically propagated to the member logical interconnects. To update a logical interconnect with changes made to its logical interconnect group, you must do one of the following:

From the Logical Interconnects screen, select ActionsUpdate from group

Use the REST APIs to reapply the logical interconnect group.

When adding a network, updating a logical interconnect from its group does not require that you take resources offline.

You can also make changes to a logical interconnect without also changing the logical interconnect group. In this case, you add the network to an uplink set on the logical interconnect. However, the appliance labels the logical interconnect as being inconsistent with its group.

For more information, see “Managing interconnects, logical interconnects, and logical interconnect groups” (page 121), the online help for the Logical Interconnects screen, or the REST API scripting help for logical interconnects.

Network Sets 4. (Optional) Add the network to a network set.
