Chapter 1 Login and Logout

This chapter describes how to open and close the ROR console.

Preparations

Before opening the ROR console, be sure to read the following instructions and restrictions.

- When accessing the ROR console, be sure to enable the Compatibility View in Internet Explorer. Select [View]-[Encoding] in Internet

Explorer, and check if [Auto-Select] is checked. If [Auto-Select] is not checked, select it.

- When downloading files using the ROR console, it is necessary to disable [Do not save encrypted pages to disk] in the Advanced

Settings of the browser.

- The ROR console uses the Web browser's standard fonts and is designed to be viewed in a window of 1024 by 768 pixels or larger.

When using a monitor with a higher resolution than this, it is recommended to enlarge the screen size. If the Web browser is resized
by a significant amount, the display quality may deteriorate.

- The ROR console uses JavaScript, Active Script, Cookies, and IFRAMEs. These must be enabled in the Web browser settings before

using the ROR console. Use SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0.

- Specify either one of the following for the Web browser pop-up blocker:

- Disable the pop-up blocker

- Add the URL of the ROR Console to the Address of web site to allow setting.

Check with the system administrator for the URL of the ROR Console.

- Surrogate pair characters cannot be used on the ROR Console.

- When opening the ROR console right after launching a Web browser, a warning window concerning the site's security certificate will

be displayed.
The following message is displayed: "There is a problem with this web site's security certificate." This warns the user that Resource
Orchestrator uses a self-signed certificate to encrypt its HTTPS (SSL) communication with the Web browser.
Resource Orchestrator generates a unique, self-signed certificate for each admin server during manager installation.
Within a firewall-protected intranet, a network where the risk of identity theft is low, or where all correspondents are trusted, there is
no risk in using self-signature certificates for communications. Accept the warning to display the Resource Orchestrator login screen.
The login screen can be displayed by selecting the following option: "Continue to this web site (not recommended)."

- The background of the address bar will become red and the words "Certificate Error" will be displayed on the right side of the address

bar of the login screen, the ROR console, and BladeViewer.
Furthermore, the Phishing Filter may show a warning on the status bar. These warnings are referring to the same self-signed certificate
issue discussed in the previous bullet. It is safe to continue with the current browser settings.

- To stop displaying the security certificate warning screen and the certificate error icon, create a certificate associated with the IP

address or hostname of the admin server and add it to the Web browser.
A login window with a URL differing from the address bar's URL in which the IP address or host name (FQDN) may be displayed
depending on the OS configuration. There are no problems with using the displayed window.
Refer to "Appendix B HTTPS Communication" in the "Design Guide VE" for details.

Opening the ROR Console

This section explains how to access the ROR console.
Add the URL of the ROR console to the "Trusted sites" of the browser.

Start a Web browser from an admin client and specify the URL of the ROR console for connection.
If the port number was changed, specify the new port number.

When Single Sign-On has been configured, the login window for Single Sign-On will be displayed. However, when Single Sign-On
authentication has already been performed, the ROR console can be started without displaying the login window.
When Single Sign-On is not configured, the login window for Resource Orchestrator will be displayed.

Refer to "Chapter 10 Installing and Defining Single Sign-On" in the "Design Guide VE" for details on Single Sign-On.

Chapter 3 Resource Management Overview

This chapter provides an overview of the two views available on the [Resource] tab in Resource Orchestrator.
Resource Orchestrator provides two different GUIs on the [Resource] tab: the default window and BladeViewer.

Choosing an appropriate GUI depends on the administrator's authority level, or the kind of operations to be performed.

- ROR console

The ROR console gives access to all functions of Resource Orchestrator.

- BladeViewer

BladeViewer offers a simplified, lifelike representation of blade servers and their statuses. While this enables intuitive operation, it
does not include the tree-based navigation or detailed menus available in the [Resource] tab of the ROR console.
BladeViewer makes it easier to monitor blade servers, visualize their hosted applications, and perform power operations. This makes
BladeViewer suitable for administrators who only need to monitor blades and perform basic operations.

To switch the view of the [Resource] tab from the default window to BladeViewer, click <BladeViewer>>>. To switch the view of the
[Resource] tab from BladeViewer to the default window, click <Advanced>>>.

Information

- All descriptions about the user interface other than those in "Chapter 6 BladeViewer" apply to the default window.

- For details on the [Resource] tab of the ROR console, refer to "Appendix A User Interface".

- For details on BladeViewer, refer to "Chapter 6 BladeViewer". This explains the BladeViewer screen and the functions that it provides.

- When logging in for the first time, the ROR console is displayed.

Otherwise, the last view used before logging out (either the ROR console or BladeViewer) is displayed.

- 6 -

Chapter 6 BladeViewer

This chapter provides an overview of BladeViewer and explains its features.
Please note that BladeViewer is only available for PRIMERGY BX servers.
For details on the ROR console, refer to "Appendix A User Interface".

6.1 Overview

This section provides a functional overview of BladeViewer.
BladeViewer provides an intuitive representation of blade servers and their statuses. This makes it easier to monitor resource states or

perform basic operations on blade servers.

Figure 6.1 BladeViewer

BladeViewer allows the following operations:

- Monitoring of resource statuses

The statuses of chassis, servers, LAN switches, and physical OSs can be monitored from a view representative of the actual placement
and configuration of physical devices.

When using virtual servers, BladeViewer shows a list of VM guests for each VM host. This helps keeping track of relationships
between VM guests and VM hosts.
BladeViewer also makes it easy to confirm which operating systems (physical OS and guest OS) are affected by a hardware failure.

- Display and control of power status

The power status of each server blade, storage blade, and VM guest is represented by an intuitive power button.
Clicking this button provides quick access to power control operations (for both server blades and VM guests).

- Display of custom labels and comments

BladeViewer allows users to define custom labels and comments for each physical OS, VM host, and VM guest.
Once defined, labels are shown on top of each displayed physical OS, VM host, and VM guest. Using labels to display application
contents makes it easy to visualize what applications are running on each server blade and identify the applications affected by a server
failure.
Clicking on a label displays the comment defined for the related resource. Registering troubleshooting and recovery procedures
beforehand can speed up the recovery of affected applications when a problem occurs.
