The HP BladeSystem offers an extensive set of features and optional tools to support effective blade
PC management and software deployment. This chapter describes the HP PC Blade Enclosure
Integrated Administrator and provides a brief overview of software associated with the system.
HP PC Blade Enclosure Integrated Administrator
The HP PC Blade Enclosure Integrated Administrator is a centralized management and monitoring
system for the HP PC Blade Enclosure and blade PCs. The Integrated Administrator acts as a
combination console server and remote power controller, enabling in-band (default) or out-of-band,
secure, serial console connections to all blade PCs in the enclosure.
The Integrated Administrator provides enclosure health, blade health, and enables remote blade
manageability. Integrated Administrator features can be accessed from any network-based client. The
Integrated Administrator can provide provide remote access to any authorized network client, sends
alerts, and provides many other blade PC management functions.
The Integrated Administrator subsystem is embedded on a module included with each interconnect tray
and includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and a dedicated network interface that can
be configured for either in-band (default) or out-of-band remote access. This design makes the
Integrated Administrator independent of the host blade PC and its operating system.
Integrated Administrator Features
The following subsections describe Integrated Administrator functions that deliver management of the
enclosure and blade PCs.
Dedicated LAN Connectivity
Each Integrated Administrator provides a dedicated network connection. The uplink port 42 can autoselect speeds between 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps. When the PC Blade Switch (optional) is installed, by
default the Integrated Administrator is configured to route through a Gigabit uplink connector using
VLANs, eliminating the need for a separate management network.
NOTE:The default configuration for the HP BladeSystem PC Blade Switch option has the dedicated
IA port and both uplink ports 45 and 46 in the same VLAN.
ENWWHP PC Blade Enclosure Integrated Administrator3
Page 14
SNMP Alerts from Integrated Administrator to a Management Console
The Integrated Administrator provides notification of enclosure problems. Using a management console,
you can access various alerts, such as unauthorized access attempts and network connection failures
using SNMP traps.
The CPQRACK.MIB file contains HP-specific SNMP Object Identifiers (OIDs) and traps for managing
the enclosure infrastructure and blades. The Integrated Administrator 4.2 implements support for
CPQRACK version 1.8.
E-mail Alerts from Integrated Administrator to an E-mail Account
(AlertMail)
AlertMail enables the Integrated Administrator to send system events by e-mail instead of using SNMP
traps. AlertMail is completely independent of SNMP, and both can be enabled at the same time. AlertMail
uses standard SMTP commands to communicate with any SMTP capable mail server or in addition to
SMTP relay agent.
Remote Access and Control
The Integrated Administrator provides remote functionality to access a limited text-only console of the
host blade PC, change the state of the Unit Identification LED on an enclosure or any of its blade PCs,
and power up, power down, or reboot a blade PC or groups of blade PCs.
The Integrated Administrator displays alerts regardless of the state of the blade PC and integrates with
HP Systems Insight Manager using SNMP to provide alerts and diagnostics of the system.
If a blade PC does not respond, this feature enables an administrator to initiate a cold reboot to bring
the blade PC back online. The Integrated Administrator can be used to remotely operate a power button
or Unit Identification LED (UID) of any blade PC within the enclosure.
The Integrated Administrator is fully accessible by common Web browsers. The Integrated Administrator
also has a command line interface (CLI) accessible using Secure Shell (encrypted) or Telnet
(unencrypted) protocols, providing extensive management capability to remote network users. Local
users can access the CLI by attaching a client computer (using a terminal emulator) to the Integrated
Administrator’s console (RS-232 serial) port.
NOTE:With a Telnet session, all data - including passwords - are passed as clear text.
User Administration and Security
The Integrated Administrator supports up to 25 users with customizable access rights and login names.
Groups are first assigned bays, and then users are given membership to those groups. This groupcentered methodology is designed to facilitate user management across blade PCs.
The Integrated Administrator provides strong security for remote management in distributed IT
environments by using industry standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption of HTTP data
transmitted across the network. SSL encryption (up to 128-bit) ensures that the HTTP information is
secure as it travels across the network. You can encrypt all remote console data as well.
4Chapter 2 HP PC Blade Enclosure System Software FeaturesENWW
Page 15
The Integrated Administrator provides secure password encryption, tracking all login attempts and
maintaining a record of all login failures. The Integrated Administrator also provides the following
additional security features:
User actions logged in the Integrated Administrator System Log
●
Login legal warning
●
IP Security allows an administrator to define a set of IP addresses that are the only ones allowed to
connect to the services provided (SSH, HTTP, HTTPS, TELNET, SNMP). This means that an
administrator can make sure only a certain set of machines have access to the Integrated Administrator.
Automatic Network Configuration
The Integrated Administrator provides automatic network configuration of the IP address and host name
using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Dynamic DNS/WINS. The Integrated
Administrator comes with a default name and DHCP client that leases an IP address from the DHCP
server on the network. For networks that do not use DHCP, the Integrated Administrator can use a static
IP configuration.
Automatic Time Configuration (NTP)
Automatic time configuration allows the Integrated Administrator to synchronize its date and time with
a compatible Network Time Protocol (NTP) Time Server.
SOAP Interface
The Integrated Administrator provides a handful of commands via the Simple Object Access Protocol
(SOAP) interface for manageability tools that utilize SOAP. This interface provides a handful of
commands for inventory and power management of the enclosure and blades managed by the IA. All
Administrator access level accounts can use the SOAP interface, and it is enabled using a command
line (CLI) command or the GUI.
Power Reporting
The Integrated Administrator collects power measurements from BC2000/BC2500 blades and reports
them via the CLI and GUI. These blades self measure using hardware measurement components
specifically in the BC2000/BC2500 series of blades. Using these measurements, a +-10% estimate of
power consumption for the enclosure is calculated. The overall enclosure power consumption estimate
can be collected by the CLI, GUI, and SOAP interface.
ENWWIntegrated Administrator Features5

The Integrated Administrator provides real-time event notifications for an enclosure. When an event
occurs, the Integrated Administrator notifies connected users by generating an icon that the user can
click to view more details.
Overview of HP BladeSystem Software Tools
The following subsections described tools and utilities supported by the HP BladeSystem blade PC
systems to facilitate monitoring and management of the enclosure.
ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU)
RBSU performs a wide range of configuration activities and provides access to numerous settings,
including those for system devices, operating system selection, and boot controller order. RBSU is also
fully compatible with remote serial console mode using the Integrated Administrator.
Headless Operation
HP bc-series blade PCs include VGA, keyboard, mouse, and USB interfaces; however, these blade
PCs are designed primarily for headless operation and management with no keyboard or monitor
attached.
ProLiant Essentials Rapid Deployment Pack
The ProLiant Essentials Rapid Deployment Pack features a graphical deployment console, which
provides intuitive drag-and-drop events, such as scripts and images, to deploy the operating systems
and applications on any combination of blade PCs installed in the enclosures.
With the Rapid Deployment Pack, users can automatically install pre-defined configurations on newly
installed blade PCs. For more information about the Rapid Deployment Pack, refer to an authorized
reseller, the Rapid Deployment CD that ships with the enclosure, or go to
http://www.hp.com/go/rdp.
HP Systems Insight Manager
HP Systems Insight Manager is a software utility designed for collecting blade PC information, including
fault conditions, performance, security, remote management, and recovery services. The HP
BladeSystem is fully compatible with the HP Systems Insight Manager utility.
Enclosure Self Recovery (ESR)
ESR is a self-monitoring reliability feature of the Integrated Administrator. If the Integrated Administrator
does not boot or hangs during operation, ESR automatically resets the Integrated Administrator for an
attempted self-recovery. The blade PCs and interconnect tray are not affected by ESR.
HP PC Blade Enclosure Management System and Utilities
The HP PC Blade Enclosure Management System and Utilities provide a full suite of configuration and
management interfaces and tools for the HP PC Blade Enclosure (option). Both Web and console
interfaces are provided for management of the interconnect switch and enclosure.

Reviewing Configuration Tools and Information
The Integrated Administrator is ready for operation immediately after powering up. The following
features and information are designed to facilitate the setup and management of the Integrated
Administrator:
Each Integrated Administrator ships with a unique preconfigured Administrator password and host
●
name.
If the network uses Dynamic DNS or WINS, you can access the Integrated Administrator using the
●
factory-configured host name.
NOTE:The preconfigured Administrator password and host name are displayed on the
Integrated Administrator Default Network Settings Tag (settings tag) attached to the interconnect
tray.
If the network uses DHCP, an IP address can be automatically assigned to the Integrated
●
Administrator.
The blade PC health service (if installed on the blade) provides the Integrated Administrator with
●
the name as defined within the operating system of the blade PC and operating system type for
each blade PC.
CAUTION:Without an ACPI-compliant operating system, the Integrated Administrator cannot
gracefully shut down a blade PC. This condition may result in the permanent loss of critical data.

Determining the Integrated Administrator’s Initial IP
Address
HP recommends that you connect a local client device, such as a laptop computer, to the console (serial)
connector in order to determine the initial IP address used by the network to recognize the Integrated
Administrator. After using that IP address to access the Integrated Administrator locally using the
console (serial) connector, you can use the Integrated Administrator default values to complete the initial
configuration.
The organization of this section reflects this process:

10Chapter 3 Getting StartedENWW
Page 21
Requirements for Local Client Devices
You can access the Integrated Administrator locally using the serial connector on the rear panel of the
enclosure using a local client device, such as a laptop computer. The local client device must run a
terminal emulator, such as HyperTerminal for Windows systems or Kermit for Linux systems.
The terminal emulator must operate at the following settings:
Bits per second: 9600
●
Bits: 8
●
Parity: None
●
Stop bits: 1
●
Flow control: none
●
Emulation: VT100
●
Backspace key sends Ctrl-H
●
Default Values for the Integrated Administrator
The Integrated Administrator is configured with a default user name, password, and DNS name. A
settings tag with the preconfigured values is attached to the interconnect tray containing the Integrated
Administrator module. There is also a built-in administrator account for SOAP access, which is disabled
by default.
Username: SAM
Default Password: SamUser123
NOTE:This administrator account is disabled by default. You cannot login using this account
until you enable the SAM account.
It is important that the account password is changed from the default account password if the account
is enabled prior to normal usage by HP SAM. Lastly, the SOAP interface for all other accounts is disabled
by default, but is always enabled for the SAM account.
NOTE:For security reasons, HP recommends changing the Administrator password after accessing
Integrated Administrator for the first time.

Accessing the Command Line Interface
You can access the CLI remotely through the management (10/100 Ethernet) connector, locally through
the console (serial) connector on the rear panel of the enclosure, or through any uplink depending on
VLAN configuration.
Accessing Remotely through the Management Connector
To access the Integrated Administrator command line interface remotely through the management
(10/100 Ethernet) connector:
1.Get the default host name from the settings tag attached to the interconnect tray.
2.Open a Telnet or Secure Shell application and type the IP address or DNS name for the enclosure
you wish to access.
CAUTION:Using Telnet instead of Secure Shell means your remote session, including
password, appears in clear text on that network.
3.Type the user name and password into the Login prompt.
Accessing Locally through the Console Connector
To access the Integrated Administrator locally through the serial connector:
1.Connect a local client device, such as a laptop computer, to the serial connector using a null-modem
cable.
NOTE:Client devices must satisfy the requirements provided in Requirements for Local Client
Devices on page 11.
2.Open the terminal emulator and press Enter one or more times to get the login prompt.

NOTE:Most of these tasks are limited to a subset of users. For more information on who can perform
each task, see
User Permissions on page 72 and the section describing that task in this chapter.
User Permissions
The group-centered approach of Integrated Administrator to user permissions facilitates the
maintenance of user groups and groups of blade PC bays. This approach operates according to the
following principles:
A blade PC bay is assigned exclusively to one group only.
●
A group can be assigned many blade PC bays.
●
A user can have various permission levels within any number of groups.
●
Access to a blade PC by users or groups depends on the rights assigned to the blade PC bay in
●
which the blade PC is installed.
Use the following table to distinguish the various permission levels available from the HP PC Blade
Enclosure Integrated Administrator.

Setting Up User Accounts
NOTE:Only enclosure administrators may perform this task.
The Integrated Administrator enables you to manage blade PC bays and administer users by organizing
those blade PC bays and users into groups.
This approach enables enclosure administrators, for example, to re-assign user permissions to groups
of blade PCs en masse, instead of requiring enclosure administrators to modify permissions one user
at a time.
Enclosure administrators assign users access rights to blade PC bays through the following tasks:
Adding groups with access to specific blade PC bays in an enclosure
●
Adding users with certain permissions within specific groups
●
Adding a Group
NOTE:Restricted default names of group and user accounts (Administrator, switch, switcha, switchb,
and SAM) are not case-sensitive. Nondefault group and user names are case-sensitive.
For more information on the Web-based user interface screens for this function, see Group List
on page 40. For information on using the CLI, see User Account Commands on page 53.
To create a group using the Web-based user interface:

Enabling Remote Console Sessions to Blade PCs
The remote console feature of the Integrated Administrator enables a user to connect to the console
(serial) connector of the blade PC in order to access the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU). Accessing
the RBSU of the blade PC requires nothing more than connecting to the blade PC.
Setting Up AlertMail
AlertMail enables users to receive system events by e-mail instead of using SNMP traps. AlertMail is
completely independent from SNMP and both can be enabled at the same time. AlertMail uses standard
SMTP commands to communicate with an SMTP capable mail server.

NOTE:If the enclosure has a switch installed, it can take up to 60 seconds before the system will send
out an AlertMail after a system boot up. Events generated within this period of time will be sent out when
the switch has come online.
EVENT (26 May 07:09): Power Supply #1 Status has changed to: Failed
Enclosure, IA-00508BEBA571, has detected that a power supply in bay 1 has
changed from status OK to Failed.
The power supply should be replaced with the appropriate spare part. You
can ensure that the center wall assembly is operating correctly by swapping
the two power supplies. Make sure that there are no bent pins on the power
supply connectors before reinserting and that each power supply is fully
seated.
An amber LED on the power supply indicates either an over-voltage, overtemperature, or loss of AC power event has occurred. A blinking LED on the
power supply indicates a current limit condition.
IP security allows an administrator to define a set of IP addresses that are the only ones allowed to
connect to the services provided (SSH, HTTP, TELNET, SNMP). This means that an administrator can
make sure only a certain set of machines have access to Integrated Administrator. You can enter a
maximum of five IP addresses.
