HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosures 63
• The Onboard Administrator firmware must be version 3.11 or higher. HP recommends using the latest
version available.
• All Onboard Administrators must use the same user credentials. VCSU uses the primary credentials for
the remote enclosure.
• When both Primary and Standby modules in the base enclosure are taken down for maintenance or
lose power and are no longer present in the domain, the management capabilities in the VC domain
are lost. Both the Primary and Standby modules in the base enclosure must be recovered to regain
management access to the VC domain.
If network and fabric uplinks are defined on the remaining enclosures, the servers continue to have
network and storage access.
For more information, see the HP Virtual Connect for c-Class BladeSystem Setup and Installation Guide in the
Virtual Connect Information Library (http://www.hp.com/go/vc/manuals).
