lengths for the interconnect devices being installed.

For more information, see the documentation that ships with the interconnect

devices.

2Hardware installation

See the enclosure quick setup instructions, rack template, and applicable

installation instructions.

A. Install the enclosure

The enclosure can be installed either in a rack or rack-free environment. The

c3000 enclosure is also available in a tower model. For rack installations, install

the rack rails, and then install the enclosure and other components.

B. Install the components

Before installing front or rear components into the enclosure, review enclosure bay

numbering for each component.

Install any options, such as processor, memory, mezzanine card, or hard drive,

into each blade.

Based on the total number ordered and the planned configuration, install the

following components:

•Blades

•Onboard Administrator modules

•Power supplies

•Active cool fans

For installation instructions, see the appropriate enclosure setup and installation

guide.

C. Connect the Onboard Administrator module

cabling

Use the appropriate cables to connect each installed Onboard Administrator

module to the external connections. The connectors on the Onboard Administrator

module provide a connection to the iLO management network and the capability

to link multiple enclosures.

IMPORTANT: For proper management of enclosure devices

there must be an Ethernet connection from the Onboard

Administrator module to the external management network.

For information on Onboard Administrator module cabling,

see the HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator User

Guide.

D. Install the interconnect modules and connect

cabling

Install the interconnects based on the type of fabric in the configuration and the

planned installation location of each mezzanine card. Use the appropriate cables

to connect each installed interconnect module to the network.

E. Power up the enclosure

Connect the AC or DC power cables, depending on the power configuration.

When the circuit breakers are powered, the enclosure and HP BladeSystem Insight

Display have power. By default, each installed component also powers up.

Examine the HP BladeSystem Insight Display for any errors which may prevent

installed components from powering up.

3Enclosure configuration

A. Run the Insight Display wizard

When the enclosure is powered up for the first time, the HP BladeSystem Insight

Display launches an installation wizard to guide the rack technician through the

initial configuration process.

Be sure to have the Installation Checklist available to record important information,

such as the Onboard Administrator IP address, gathered while running the

installation wizard. By default, the Onboard Administrator obtains an IP address

using DHCP. Read the Insight Display and write the IP address for the active and

standby Onboard Administrator on the checklist. This IP address is needed for

remote connection and subsequent setup with a browser. If DHCP is not used, a

static IP address can be configured on the Insight Display Settings screen. For

specific instructions, see the HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator User Guide

on the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/documentation).

The Insight Display verifies that no installation or configuration errors exist and

indicates configuration check progress. If configuration errors are indicated, follow

the on-screen instructions to correct the problem. When the screen display stays

green, there are no configuration errors or device failures and hardware

installation is complete.

B. Run the Onboard Administrator First Time Setup

Wizard

After all hardware is installed and the hardware configuration has been verified in

the Insight Display, use one of the following methods to complete the enclosure

configuration setup:

•Use the Insight Display to determine the address received by DHCP, and then

use the Onboard Administrator First Time Setup Wizard to complete the

installation and configuration at the assigned address.

•If no DHCP server is present on the customer management network, do one

of the following:

oUse the Insight Display to set the address, and then use the Onboard

Administrator First Time Setup Wizard to complete the installation and

configuration at the assigned address.

oUse the Onboard Administrator First Time Setup Wizard or the CLI to

configure EBIPA and assign IP addresses for iLO and interconnect

management ports. This method simplifies the required setup for

interconnect management network settings.

•Use the Insight Display to set the IP address and complete the Onboard

Administrator First Time Setup Wizard from the Insight Display. This method

enables configuration without the use of an external browser.

For specific instructions, see the HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator User

Guide on the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/documentation).

4Interconnect module configuration

Each interconnect module ships with a default configuration. For customized

configuration or advanced port mapping, see the installation instructions that ship

with each interconnect module.

To configure HP Virtual Connect modules, see the HP Virtual Connect for c-Class

BladeSystem User Guide on the HP website

(http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/documentation).

5Firmware Management

To determine recommended updates and download the latest firmware, see the HP

BladeSystem c-Class Firmware and Upgrades Compatibility Matrix on the HP

website (http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystemupdates).

If you are operating the enclosure in a Microsoft® Windows® or Linux OS

environment, use the following tools to verify and update the firmware:

•HP Smart Update Manager

The HP Smart Update Manager utility is available from the ProLiant Firmware

Maintenance CD. This CD and others can be downloaded free-of-charge

from the HP website (http://www.hp.com/support).

•Online ROM Flash Component Utility

The Online ROM Flash Component Utility enables system administrators to

efficiently upgrade system or controller ROM images across a wide range of

servers and array controllers. To download the tool and for more

information, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/support).

If you are operating the enclosure in a VMWare ESX OS environment, use an

offline utility such as ROMPaq to update and verify the firmware. The ROMPaq

utility checks the system and provides a choice (if more than one exists) of

available firmware revisions.

For more information about the ROMPaq utility, see the HP website

(http://www.hp.com/support).

6Operating system installation

If the blade has an OS that is pre-installed, proceed to section 7, "Management

software (on page 7)".

A. Choose a supported operating system

For the latest operating system support information, see the HP website

(http://www.hp.com/go/supportos).

B. Install an operating system

To install an operating system, use one of the following methods:

•Use iLO Virtual CD/DVD-ROM to install the operating system from a

CD/DVD-ROM drive on the network.

For more information, see the server blade user guide and the HP Integrated

Lights-Out 2 User Guide on the HP website

(http://www.hp.com/servers/lights-out).

•Use a USB DVD-ROM drive and a local I/O cable to install the operating

system locally.

For more information, see the server blade user guide.

•For c3000 enclosures, use the optional integrated DVD-ROM drive to install

the operating system.

For more information, see the HP BladeSystem c3000 Enclosure Setup and

Installation Guide on the HP website

(http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/documentation).

•Use the Rapid Deployment Pack to install the operating system.

The RDP software is the preferred method for rapid, high-volume server

deployments. The RDP software integrates two powerful products: Altiris

Deployment Solution and the HP ProLiant Integration Module.

The intuitive graphical user interface of the Altiris Deployment Solution

console provides simplified point-and-click and drag-and-drop operations that

enable you to deploy target servers, including server blades, remotely. It

enables you to perform imaging or scripting functions and maintain software

images.

For more information about the RDP, refer to the HP ProLiant Essentials Rapid

Deployment Pack CD or refer to the HP website

(http://www.hp.com/servers/rdp).

7Management software

DVD, an integrated suite of software used to simplify HP BladeSystem provisioning

and management.

Use the wizard-based installer to configure and license HP Systems Insight

Manager (HP SIM) and ProLiant Essentials management software rapidly and

consistently, which reduces manual procedures and enables faster production

deployment of HP BladeSystem servers.

If previous enclosures have been installed, it is not necessary to deploy the

management software. New devices are discovered and can be managed by the

previously installed management system.

Before deploying the management software and creating provisioning policies:

•Complete the installation checklist.

•Be sure that the HP BladeSystem enclosure, switches, and associated storage

resources are configured.

•Verify that a supported operating system is installed. If the operating system

has not been installed, see the operating system installation documentation.
