module cannot use the connection to the Onboard Administrator to communicate with another

interconnect module.

Customers using the HP BladeSystem c7000 Enclosure have the option of installing a second OA

board to act as a redundant controller in an active-standby mode. The OA modules communicate with

the iLO 2 management processors on each server blade to form the core of the management

architecture for HP BladeSystem c-Class.

IT technicians and administrators have four ways to access the OA:

• An Insight Display screen on each HP BladeSystem c-Class Enclosure provides ready access for

quick setup and daily maintenance.

• The web graphical user interface (GUI) uses event-driven, push technology. No screen refresh is

necessary to view failures or events. If an event occurs, its status is pushed to the web GUI

immediately. The web GUI provides seamless integration with OpenView, Insight Control

Environment for BladeSystem, and Insight Control Environment for Linux.

• The Command Line Interface (CLI) provides command line and scripting interfaces.

• The optional c3000 KVM module provides Onboard Administrator CLI, Insight Display, and KVM

console connections to all server blades in an enclosure for control of server power, connectivity to

the enclosure DVD, and server-embedded health status.

Insight Display

The Insight Display, shown in Figure 3, is an ever-ready, enclosure-mounted information exchange

device with access to all Onboard Administrator setup, management, and troubleshooting features. It

provides a quick and easy method for initially configuring the enclosure. It also provides information

about the health and operation of the enclosure.

When the enclosure is powered up for the first time, the Onboard Administrator launches an

installation wizard to guide an IT technician through the configuration process. Once the enclosure is

configured, the technician can review the configuration on the Insight Display to verify that there are

no installation or configuration errors.
