Propagating Leader Chassis Properties to Member Chassis
You can apply the properties from the leader to the member chassis of a group. To synchronize a member with the leader
properties:
1. Login with administrator privileges to the leader chassis.
2. Select the Lead chassis in the tree.
3. Click Setup → Group Administration.
4. In the Chassis Properties Propagation section, select one of the propagation types:
• On-Change Propagation — Select this option for automatic propagation of the selected chassis property settings. The
property changes are propagated to all current group members, whenever lead properties are changed.
• Manual Propagation — Select this option for manual propagation of the chassis group leader properties with its members.
The lead chassis property settings are propagated to group members only when a lead chassis administrator clicks
Propagate.
5. In the Propagation Properties section, select the categories of lead configuration properties to be propagated to member
chassis.
Select only those setting categories that you want identically configured, across all members of the chassis group. For example,
select Logging and Alerting Properties category, to enable all chassis in the group to share the logging and alerting
configuration settings of the lead chassis.
6. Click Save.
If On-Change Propagation is selected, the member chassis take on the properties of the leader. If Manual Propagation is
selected, click Propagate whenever you want to propagate the chosen settings to member chassis. For more information on
propagation of leader chassis properties to member chassis, see the Online Help.
Server Inventory for MCM group
A group is a lead chassis that has 0 to 8 chassis group members. The Chassis Group Health page displays all the member chassis
and allows you to save the server inventory report to a file, using standard browser download capability. The report contains data
for:
• All servers currently in all the group chassis (including the leader).
• Empty slots and extension slots (including full height and double width server modules).
Saving Server Inventory Report
To save the server inventory report using the CMC web interface:
1. In the left pane, select the Group.
2. On the Chassis Group Health page, click Save Inventory Report. The File Download dialog box is displayed asking you to
open or save the file.
3. Click Save and specify the path and file name for the server module inventory report.
NOTE: The chassis group leader and chassis group member chassis, and the server module in the associated
chassis, must be turned on to get the most accurate server module inventory report.
Exported Data
The server inventory report contains data that was most recently returned by each Chassis Group member during the Chassis
Group leader’s normal polling (after every 30 seconds).
