OA power verification
As defined earlier, the HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator (OA) is the enclosure management
tool that manages the devices contained within the enclosure. The OA provides a single point from
which to perform basic management tasks on switches or server blades installed in the enclosure.
IMPORTANT:
HP recommends reading the HP BladeSystem c7000 Enclosure user guide and the HP BladeSystem
Onboard Administrator user guide. Reading these guides in sequence will promote an overall
understanding of the enclosure system.
Once the switch is installed in the interconnect bay, the OA verifies that the switch type matches the
mezzanine cards present on the servers. If there is no mismatch, the OA powers up the switch. If the
switch does not power up, check the enclosure and switch status via the OA web interface. Refer to
the HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator user guide.
