This section explains how to register a physical server in a server pool.
Use the following procedure to register a physical server in a server pool:
In the ROR console orchestration tree, right-click the server pool, and select [Register Resources] from the popup menu.
The [Register Resources] dialog is displayed.
Select the physical server to register.
The list of the physical servers that can be registered is displayed in the resource list. Select the physical server that you want to register using the [Select] checkbox, or select all registered physical servers displayed in the resource list by clicking the [Select all] button.
Note
When the [Display servers with OS installed] checkbox is checked, physical servers with OSs installed are displayed in the resource list. However, physical servers with OSs installed cannot be used for creating L-Servers.
Do not check the [Display servers with OS installed] checkbox.
Do not select servers for which I/O virtualization is not available, such as other vendor's servers and Solaris, as those servers cannot be used to create physical L-Servers.
When managing configured Solaris physical servers, refer to "Chapter 18 Linking L-Servers with Configured Physical Servers or Virtual Machines" for details.
Click the [OK] button.
The physical server is registered.
Note
When changing the status of a partition after registering the partition in a server pool on a PRIMEQUEST 2000 series, unregister the partition first. If the partition is not unregistered, an unusable partition will remain registered.
When changing the Extended Partitioning Mode of a PPAR partition to "Enable" while the PPAR partition on which a physical server is configured is registered in a server pool
When changing the Extended Partition Mode of a PPAR partition on which Extended Partitioning is configured to "Disable" while the Extended Partition on which a physical server is configured is registered in a server pool
When deleting the Extended Partition from a PPAR partition on which Extended Partitioning is configured while the Extended Partition on which a physical server is configured is registered in a server pool
When using [Function number expansion (Onboard)] on a physical L-Server, register a server that satisfies all of the following conditions as a physical server resource. Physical L-Servers cannot be created for servers that do not satisfy these conditions.
