● No Redundancy—The intent of the No Redundancy policy is to power on the maximum number of devices based on
the available PSUs. In case of single or multiple PSU failures, the system is at risk of degraded performance and other
significant power limiting events. The No Redundancy policy distributes power between all the PSUs, and the system
limits the power on of devices added to the chassis to the sum of the capacity of all PSUs.
● Grid Redundancy—This policy distributes power between all the PSUs where they are divided into two power grids.
Grid A consists of PSUs 1, 2, 3, and Grid B consists of PSUs 4, 5, and 6. To make the maximum power available to the
system, the sum of power supply capacities on each grid must be equal. The system limits the power on of devices that
are added to the chassis to the grid with the largest capacity. If a grid or PSU fails, then the power is distributed among
the remaining PSUs with the intent that a healthy grid continues to provide power to the system without degraded
performance.
● PSU Redundancy—This policy distributes power between all the PSUs. The system limits the power on of devices
that are added to the chassis to the sum of the capacity of all the PSUs minus one. If a PSU fails, then the power is
distributed among the remaining PSUs with the intent that the remaining PSUs continue to provide power to the system
without degraded performance.
Configuring chassis network
You can configure the network settings for chassis that are inserted in a chassis management module.
● LAN/NIC interface
● IPv4
● IPv6
● DNS Information
● Management VLAN
To configure the chassis network:
1. Click Devices > Chassis > View Details > Settings > Network.
The Network configuration section is expanded.
2. In the General Settings section, you can enable or disable NIC, Register with DNS and Auto Negotiation.
If you enable Register with DNS, then enter the DNS Name and enable or disable the Use DHCP for DNS Domain Name
option.
If Auto Negotiation is false or disabled, you can choose network port speed.
If the Use DHCP for DNS Domain Name is disabled, then enter the DNS Domain Name.
NOTE:
You can enable Use DHCP for DNS Name only if IPv4 or IPv6 has DHCP configured. OME–Modular obtains its
DNS domain name from either a DHCP or DHCPv6 server when Use DHCP for DNS Name is enabled.
3. In the IPv4 Settings section, configure the following:
● Enable IPv4
● Enable DHCP
● IP Address
● Subnet Mask
● Gateway
● Use DHCP to Obtain DNS Server Addresses
● Static Preferred DNS Server
● Static Alternate DNS Server
4. In the IPv6 Settings section, configure the following:
● Enable IPv6
● Enable Autoconfiguration
● IPv6 Address
● Prefix Length
● Gateway
● Use DHCPv6 to Obtain DNS Server Addresses
● Statis Preferred DNS Server
● Static Alternate DNS Server
5. Enable or disable the VLAN for the chassis. You can configure the VLAN settings only if the Register with DNS check box
is cleared.
