Enhanced Network Adapter Isolation: Uplink configuration for enhanced security in multi-tenant
configurations. This configuration isolates the individual network adapters with a dedicated IOM port
mapped to the LOM of each node. Only the LOM1 on each node is operational.
NOTE: While downgrading from CMC version 1.3 or later, if the Sled network uplink configuration
is set to Enhanced Network Adapter Isolation, then the Sled network uplink configuration is blank
in CMC 1.2 or earlier versions. In the CLI, the invalid value ‘4’, is displayed as the output for the
command:
$ getconfig –g cfgRacTuning –o cfgRacTuneSledNetworkUplink
Deploying remote file share
The Remote Virtual Media File Share feature maps a file from a share drive on the network to one or more
servers through CMC to deploy or update an operating system. When connected, the remote file is
accessible similar to a file that you can access on a local server. Two types of media are supported: floppy
drives and CD/DVD drives.
To perform a remote file share operation (connect, disconnect, or deploy), you must have the Chassis
Configuration Administrator or Server Administrator privileges. To use this feature, you must have an
Enterprise license.
To configure the remote file share:
1. In the left pane, click Server OverviewSetupRemote File Share.
2. On the Deploy Remote File Share page, type appropriate data in the fields. For more information
about the field descriptions, see the CMC for Dell PowerEdge FX2/FX2s Online Help.
3. To connect to a remote file share, click Connect. To connect a remote file share, you must provide
the path, user name, and password. A successful operation allows access to the media.
Click Disconnect to disconnect a previously-connected remote file share.
Click Deploy to deploy the media device.
NOTE: Before you click the Deploy button, make sure that you save all the working files,
because this action restarts the server.
When you click Deploy, the following tasks are executed:
The remote file share is connected.
The file is selected as the first boot device for the servers.
The server is restarted.
Power is supplied to the server if the server is turned off.
