Preparations
For details, refer to the procedure in "D.2 Preparations for Servers" in the "Design Guide CE".
Setup
Register the resources of configured physical servers and VM hosts to Resource Orchestrator.
When linking a configured physical server to an L-Server, perform the following procedure described in "Appendix B Configuration when Creating Physical L-Servers" in the "Setup Guide CE":
When linking a configured virtual machine to an L-Server, perform the following procedure described in "C.2 VMware" or "C.3 Hyper-V" in the "Setup Guide CE":
Register Resources
When linking a configured physical server to an L-Server, perform the following procedure:
Register Storage Management Software
Register Managed Servers
When linking a configured virtual machine to an L-Server, perform the following procedure:
Register VM Management Software
[Solaris Containers]
Registration of VM management software is not necessary.
Register Managed Servers
Register Resources in Resource Pools
When linking a configured physical server to an L-Server, perform the following procedure to register a resource in a resource pool.
Register physical server resources in a server pool.
In the [Register Resources] dialog for the server pool, check the [Display servers with OS installed] checkbox and specify a physical server with an OS installed.
Register the disks that are connected to the physical server to be linked with the L-Server in a storage pool.
Register address set resources.
Specify the scope including MAC/WWN addresses being used by the configured physical server.
Register network resources.
Specify IP addresses not being used by the configured physical server or the virtual machine.
When the IP address used for a configured physical server, a virtual machine, or other devices is included in the subnet address scope, specify the IP address as the "IP addresses to be excluded".
When linking a configured virtual machine to an L-Server, perform the following procedure to register a resource in a resource pool.
Register VM host resources in a VM pool.
Register the virtual storage that is used for a virtual machine to be linked with the L-Server in a storage pool.
Register network resources.
Specify IP addresses not being used by the configured physical server or the virtual machine.
When the IP address used for a configured physical server, a virtual machine, or other devices is included in the subnet address scope, specify the IP address as the "IP addresses to be excluded".
Confirmation
Perform the procedure described in "18.4.2 For Physical Servers" or "18.4.3 For Virtual Machines", and confirm the configured physical server or virtual machine linked to an L-Server, using the following procedure:
Confirmation from the GUI
Select the L-Server in the orchestration tree, display the [Resource Details] tab, and check the information is displayed in [Controlled resources] on the [Status] table.
In [Controlled resources], the following text strings are displayed.
When [Server] is displayed
A physical L-Server or a server is managed by a virtual L-Server.
When [Server,Storage] is displayed
A server or a storage device is managed by a virtual L-Server.
Confirmation from the Command Line
Execute the rcxadm lserver show command and check that the scope of the controlled resources (ControlledResources) is displayed.
For details, refer to "3.6 rcxadm lserver" in the "Reference Guide (Command/XML) CE".
For the scope of controlled resources, the following text strings are displayed.
When "Server" is displayed
A physical L-Server or a server is managed by a virtual L-Server.
When "Server,Storage" is displayed
A server or a storage device is managed by a virtual L-Server.
