HP® Blade Chassis Configuration (Port Group Management)
The Dominion KX II supports the aggregation of ports connected to
certain types of blades into a group representing the blade chassis.
Specifically, HP BladeServer blades and Dell PowerEdge 1855/1955
blades when the DellPowerEdge 1855/1955 is connected from each
individual blade to a port on the Dominion KX II.
The chassis is identified by a Port Group Name and the group is
designated as a Blade Server Group on the Port Group Management
page. Port Groups consist solely of ports configured as standard KVM
ports, not ports configured as blade chassis. A port may only be a
member of a single group.
Ports connected to integrated KVM modules in a blade chassis are
configured as blade chassis subtypes. These ports are eligible to be
included in port groups.
When Dominion KX II ports are connected to integrated KVM modules in
a blade chassis and not to individual blades, the ports are configured as
blade chassis subtypes. These ports are not eligible to be included in
port groups and will not appear in the Select Port for Group, Available
list.
If a standard KVM port has been included in a port group, and then is
subsequently repurposed for use as a blade chassis subtype, it must first
be removed from the port group.
Port Groups are restored using the Backup and Restore option (see
Backup and Restore
(on page 194)).
To add a port group:
1. Click Device Settings > Port Group Management to open the Port
Group Management page.
2. Click the Add button to open the Port Group page.
