    Enter a string of up to 32 alphanumeric characters, underscores ("_"), and hyphens ("-").

    Admin LAN
    IP address

    Enter the IP address used by this server on the admin LAN.
    For SPARC Enterprise M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000 servers and Fujitsu M10-4S, "admin LAN (IP address)" is displayed.

    Server OS
    Category

    Select the appropriate server OS category (Physical OS or VM host).
    Selecting [VM Host] activates the user name and password input fields.
    Those refer to the user name and password entered during installation of this VM host.

    For a Physical OS
    Select [Solaris].

    For a VM Host
    Select [Solaris Zone], and enter the VM host login account information.
    This login account information will be used by Resource Orchestrator to control and communicate with the registered VM host.

    Note

    [OVM for SPARC]
    Server switchover is only possible when [VM host] is selected and it is registered as OVM for SPARC.

    User ID

    Enter the user ID to log in to the VM host.
    Specify the user ID "root" which has VM host administrator authority.

    Note

    When using Solaris 11, if user accounts are created during installation, root will be registered for the role. Therefore, the root account cannot be used for login. Log in using the user account, and use the su command to become a root user.

    When using Solaris 10 or earlier versions, execute the following as root in order to change to enable direct login using the root account. In this case, the root role is recognized as a root user.

    rolemod -K type=normal root <RETURN>

    Use SSH connection with the root account, and check if communication with the VM host is possible.
    If communication fails, modify the configuration. For details, refer to the manual of the basic software.

    Password

    Enter the password of the user to log in to the VM host.
    Enter up to 256 characters, including alphanumeric characters, blank spaces (" "), and symbols.

  3. Click the [OK] button.

    The registered server will be displayed in the server resource tree.

Note

After registering the server, verify that the information registered for the remote management controller is correct. This can be verified by trying out power operations (from Resource Orchestrator) against that server. For details on power operations, refer to "Chapter 14 Power Control" in the "User's Guide VE".
