Introduction
The Emulex® OneCommandTM Manager application is a comprehensive management utility for Emulex
®
LightPulse
(UCNAs) that provides a powerful, centralized adapter management suite. Adapter management
includes discovery, reporting and management of local and remote adapters from a single console
anywhere in the Storage Area Network (SAN) and across operating system platforms. Remote
configuration capability can be provided by either Fibre Channel (FC) access via host systems on the
same FC SAN or by Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) access from IP addresses
of remote machines. The OneCommand Manager application contains a graphica l user interface (GUI)
and a command line interface (CLI). This manual describes the OneComm and Mana ger applicatio n for
the following operating systems:
•Windows
•Linux
•VMware ESX Server
•Solaris
This OneCommand Manager installation includes options to install the OneCommand Vision Sensor
Application. The OneCommand Vision Sensor is designed to work with the Emulex OneCommand
Vision system, it is designed to collect critical I/O performance data while consuming the smallest
possible production server memory and CPU footprint.
The OneCommand Vision system is an intelligent application that enables proactive management of I/O
within a data center environment. OneCommand Vision gives IT administrators the ability to maximize
I/O resource utilization, identify bottlenecks, and enhance performance and availa bility by monitoring
and analyzing the I/O traffic within the infrastructure. OneCommand Vision collects, analyzes and
organizes critical I/O performance data; helping organizations establish performance baselines,
proactively monitor performance against those baselines, and lower time to resolutio n when prob lems
occur. For more information please visit http://www.emulex.com/vision/.

Installing and Uninstalling OneCommand Manager
Application Components
Installing the OneCommand Manager Application
In Windows
There are two ways to install the OneCommand Manager application in Windows:
•Attended installation using the GUI.
•Unattended installation using the command line.
Note: If you are running the OneCommand Vision application, you must stop the
OneCommand Vision sensor before installing the OneCommand Manager
application.
2. You can also set the following optional parameters:
•MHost - This option al switch allows a non-mana gement-ho st user to se lect a Ma nagemen t
Host with which to register. If this switch is not specified, the default value of 0 will be used
and the feature will be disabled. If the switch is specified, the value can be a host name or
an IP address which will be validated by the installer. An error message appears if /mmode
is set as Local Only or Management Host.
•excl - This op tional switch allows the non-man agemen t-host user to select whe ther it will
process requests exclusively from the Management Host specified by the MHost switch.
This option is only accepted if accompanied by a valid MHost value; otherwise an error
message appears. If this switch is not specified, the default value of 0 will be used. If the
switch is specified, the valid values are as follows:
0. Remotely managed by other hosts.
1. Remotely man aged by M anageme nt Host ONLY
•Mtcp - This option al switch allows you to ena ble or disable remo te manag ement and to
specify the TCP/IP port number over which management will occur. If this switch is not
specified, the default TCP/IP port number 2333 will be used.
If the management host option is selected, you must either select the default port number or
enter a valid TCP/IP port number on the command line. A value of 0 will not be accepted.
If one of the non-management host options is selected, the TCP/IP port number may be
entered on the command line.

Note: The OneCommand Manager application core kit cannot be installed if a previous
version of HBAnyware is installed.
You have two options when installing the OneCommand Manager application CLI on a Linux system:
•Upgrade - preserve existing settings
•Clean install - overwrite existing settings
To upgrade:
1. You must install the current core kit as detailed in “In Linux” on page 16.
The rpm file handles the configuration file upgrade.
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 17
The install script executes an rpm upgrade (rpm -U *.rpm) to upgrade the installed version of the
core kit to the current version.
Note: There is no upgrade path from an HBAnyware 4.x or 3.x core kit to a OneCommand
Manager application 5.2.0.x core kit. You must uninstall previous versions of the
HBAnyware utility before installing a OneCommand Manager app lication core kit. For
information on uninstalling older versions of HBAnyware, see “Uninstalling Older
HBAnyware Kits on Linux” on page 18.
To perform a clean install:
1. Uninstall the existing OneCommand Manager application CLI using the uninstall script included
in the tar file or in /usr/sbin/ocmanager/scripts directory.
Note: If an HBAnyware CLI or enterprise kit is installed, follow the procedure for
“Uninstalling Older HBAnyware Kits on Linux” on page 18.
Note: Your configuration files are backed up by rpm with an .rpmsave extension.

In Linux and Solaris:
On Linux and Solaris machines, you can stop and start the OneCommand Manager daemon processes
using the "stop_ocmanager" and "start_ocmanager" scripts respectively. These are found in the
following OneCommand Manager installation directory:
Linux - /usr/sbin/ocmanager
Solaris - /opt/ELXocm
There are three basic daemon processes, included with OneCommand Ma nager installations, that are
affected by these scripts. They are:
•elxhbamgrd - Remote management daemon which services reque sts from OneCommand
Manager clients running on remote host machines.
•mili2d - MILI daemon that routes major po rtio ns o f the local On eCommand Manager client CNA
management requests.
•elxdiscoveryd - Discovery daemon responsible for maintaining all discovery data (remote and
local) for OneCommand Manager clients running on the local machine.
elxhbamgrd and mili2d start at system boot time. elxdiscoveryd starts whenever the OneCommand
Manager GUI process first runs on the host machine.
Additionally if the web-launch component of OneCommand Manager is installed, the daemon process,
rmiserver, starts at system boot time. The start_weblaunch script starts this daemon, while the
stop_weblaunch stops it.
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 22
Starting the OneCommand Manager Application Web Launch Interface
After the OneCommand Manager application Web Launch Interface software is installed and the Web
Launch server is initialized, you can launch the OneCommand Manager app lication directly with your
Web browser.
Note: Only the OneC ommand Manager application GUI is e xported to the requesting cl ient.
All adapter discovery and remote management operations are performed by
resources running on the remote host that served the GUI component. The refore, th e
SAN view displayed by the GUI is not from the client running the GUI, but rather from
the host from which this GUI was retrieved.
To launch the OneCommand Manager application with your Web browser:
1. Open your web browser. Linux and Solaris users must log on as ‘root’.
2. Enter the URL of the ocmanager.jnlp file. Make sure that the URL specifies a remote server
which has the OneCommand Manager application Web Launch Interface software installed and

following display requirements:
For Windows systems, the display resolution must be set to 800 by 600 or better.
For Linux and Solaris systems, the display resolution must be set to 1024 by 768 or better.
The display must run in 256-color mode or higher. OneCommand Manager application icons
use 256 colors. If the display is set for 16 color mode, OneCommand Manager application
icons are not displayed.
The OneCommand Manager Application Window Element Definitions
The OneCommand Manager application window contains five basic components: the menu bar, the
toolbar, the discovery-tree, the property tabs and the status bar.
Figure 7: OneCommand Manager ap plicat ion windo w
Note: The element you select in the discovery-tree determines whether a menu item or
toolbar icon is active. For example, if you select the local host or other system host,
the Reset Adapter item on the Adapter menu is unavailable. The Reset Adapter
toolbar button is unavailable as well.
Note: Screenshot s in this manual are fo r illustrati ve purposes only. Your system information
can vary.
Note: The features displayed by your local OneCommand Manager application interface will
match those of the remote server. When accessing a remote server running an older
version of the OneCommand Manager application, features that are not supported by
the server’s older version of the OneCommand Manager application are unavailable.
Note: In some instances, the type of information displayed and available functionality is
determined by the operating system in use.
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 24
The Menu Bar
The menu bar contains commands that enable you to perform a variety of tasks such as exiting the
OneCommand Manager application, resetting adapters and sorting ite ms in the discovery-tree view.
Many of the menu bar commands are also available from the toolbar.
The Toolbar
The toolbar contains buttons that enable you to refresh the discovery-tree, reset the selected adapter
and choose how you want to view discovered SAN elements in the discovery-tree. Many of the toolbar
functions are also available from the menu bar.
Figure 8: Toolbar
The toolbar is visible by default. Use the Toolbar item in the View menu to h ide the toolba r. If the item is
checked, the toolbar is visible.
The Toolbar Buttons
The toolbar buttons perform the following tasks:
Discovery Refresh button
• Initiates a discovery refresh cycle.
Reset button
• Resets the selected adapter.
The View Buttons on the Toolbar
The View buttons on the toolbar enable you to view SAN el ement s from the ho st, fabric, virtual p ort s, or
by local or remote adapter perspective. By default, both local and remote adapters are displayed in
Host view. The OneCommand Manager application displays elements in ascending order.
Host View button (default)
• Displays the host system.
Note: Y ou cannot change host names using th e OneCommand Manager application; names
must be changed locally on that system.
• Displays the installed adapters within each host system.
• Displays adapter ports and the port numbers if available.
• Displays adapters by the WWNN if multiple adapters have the same model number.
• Displays the WWPN if targets are present. Multiple adapters can refer to the same target.
• Displays the LUN number if LUNs are present.
• COMSTAR ports are located on the same level in the discovery-tr ee as initiator ports,
meaning that they branch out from adapters. Unlike initiator ports, however, targets do not
branch out from COMSTAR ports. (COMSTAR ports are supported on OpenSolaris only.)
Note: COMSTAR ports are supported on OpenSolaris only.
Fabric View button
• Displays the FC/FCoE fabrics in the SAN with their fabric IDs.
• Displays the ports under each switch.
• If targets are present, displays each WWPN. Multiple adapters can refer to the same
target.
• If LUNs are present, displays each LUN number.
• If the fabric ID is all zeros, no fabric is attached.
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 25
Note: iSCSI and NIC ports are not displayed in Fabric View.
Virtual Ports View button
• Displays virtual ports in the SAN.
Note: The Emulex emlxs driver for Solaris does not support COMSTAR running over virtual
ports, so the Virtual Ports view only displays initiator ports.
Note: COMSTAR ports are supported on OpenSolaris only.
Note: iSCSI and NIC ports are not displayed in Virtual Ports View.
Local HBAs Only button
• Displays only local adapters.
Show Host Groups button and menu
• Displays hosts by their associated groups.
• Displays available host groups.
Find Host button and search field
• Enables you to search by host name for a particular host in the discovery-tree.
Refresh LUNS button
• Initiates a LUN discovery refresh cycle.
Help button
• Displays the OneCommand Manager application’s online help.
The Discovery-Tree
The discovery-tree (left pane) has icons that represent discovered hosts, adapters, ports, virtual ports,
fabrics, targets and LUNs.
Using the View menu, the OneCommand Manager application allows you to control the way iSCSI
initiator and target ports are identified in the discovery-tree. The "iSCSI Names" option displays all iSCSI
ports by their iSCSI Qualified Name (IQN). The "iSCSI Alias" option displays each port by its alias.
Figure 9: Discovery-tree
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 26
Discovery-Tree Icons
Discovery-tree icons represent the following:
The local host.
Other hosts connected to the system.
A green adapter icon with black descriptive text represents an online adapter. Blue text
represents an adapter port that had previously been discovered, but currently is not being
seen by the discovery engine (service). The adapter is removed from the discovery-tree if it
still is not seen after the undiscovered adapter expiration time has elapsed (default is 1800
seconds, or 30 minutes). If the adapter is discovered again before the expiration time has
elapsed, it reverts back to normal black text. See “Configuring Discovery and CIM
Credentials” on page 36 for more information about discovery settings.
The port icon represents an adapter port. A port icon with a red X indicates the port is down.
Note: Multiport adapters are represented in the discovery-tree with separate port icons for
each port with the port number displayed next to the icon.
The iSCSI icon represents an iSCSI PCI function instance. iSCSI functions can support up
to sixteen logical adapters, with each logical adapter appearing in the discovery-tree as a
separate child node under the respective iSCSI function. The green iSCSI icon represents
an iSCSI PCI function on-line instance. A black iSCSI ico n represent s an iSCSI PCI function
port-disabled instance. A red iSCSI icon represents an iSCSI PCI function link down
instance.
The green FCoE icon represents an FCoE PCI function on-line inst ance. A black FCoE icon
represents an FCoE PCI function port-disabled instance. A red FCoE icon represents an
FCoE PCI function link down instance.
The NIC icon represents a NIC-Only PCI function instance. A green icon indicates this
function instance is on-line, black indicates it is disabled, and red indicates a link down
instance.
The ASIC node icon, only displayed for OneConnect dual ASIC 4 port 8Gb/sec FC
adapters, represents each ASIC on the adapter. Each ASIC is managed independently. The
ASIC node format: "ASIC bus#-sub-adapter#" represents the PCI bus number and the subadapter number which is a concatenation of the discovered port numbers for the ASIC. For
example, "ASIC 64-12" represents PCI bus number 64 and 12 represents ports 1 and 2. If
there were no discovered functions for a port on that ASIC the label would be "ASIC 64-2"
(port 1 is missing).
The Virtual Port icon represents a virtual port.
The COMSTAR icon represents COMSTAR target mode ports. COMSTAR ports are unique
in that a single port can be shown simultaneously as both a manageable adapter port and a
regular target. When a COMSTAR port is seen as a target, it displays the Target discoverytree icon and Target dialog box information. A COMSTAR icon with a red X indicates the
port is down. (COMSTAR ports are supported on OpenSolaris only.)
The Target icon represents connections to individual storage devices.
The LUN icon represents connections to individual disk LUNs.
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 27
The Media Exchanger icon represents conections to individual media exchangers. A media
exchanger is a jukebox-like device that is capable of swapping various media device
instances (e.g. records or CDs) in and out.
The Tape LUN icon represents LUNs that are tape devices.
The Target Controller LUN icon represents LUNs that are storage controllers.
The Switch icon represents connections to the switch.
Expanding or Collapsing the Discovery-Tree View
You can also use the Expand/Collapse feature on the View menu to change the way discovered
elements are displayed. By selecting one of the four levels the discovery-tree is expanded or collapsed
to that level. You can choose Hosts/Fabrics (depending on the view), HBAs, Ports and Targets.
The Property Tabs
The property tabs display configuration, statistical and status information for network elements. The set
of available tabs is context-sensitive, depending on the type of network element or adapter port currently
selected in the discovery-tree.
The Status Bar
The status bar is located near the bottom of the OneCommand Manager application window. The status
bar displays messages about OneCommand Manager application functions, such a s “Discove ry in
progress” or the progress when performing an "Export SAN Info" o peratio n.
The status bar is visible by default. Use the Status Bar item in the View menu to hide the status bar.
When checked, the status bar is visible.
Changing Management and Read-Only Mode
During installation, a management and a read-only mode are selected. If modification of these settin gs
after installation was selected, you can change the management mode:
•Strictly Local Management - This setting only allows management of adapters on this host.
Management of adapters on this host from other hosts is not allowed.
•Local Management Plus - This setting only allows management of adapters on this host, b ut
management of adapters on this host from another host is possible.
•Full Management - This setting enables you to manage adapters on this h ost and othe r hosts
that allow it.
•Management Host - This setting allows this host to manage other hosts, but prevents it from
being managed by other hosts.
•Enable TCP/IP Management (of/from remote host) - This setting enables yo u to mana ge
remotes hosts or to manage this host remotely. If enabled, you must supply the port number
(between 1024 and 65535). The default port number is 2 3333. If the po rt number or the Enable
TCP/IP Management checkbox is changed, a set of warning messages may appear before
changes are made. Click Yes to continue with the chan ge.
If the IP port number is changed, the utility restarts the OneCommand Manager Application discovery server and management agent to use the new settings. If the servers cannot be stopped
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 28
and restarted, you are prompted to reboot the host for the new TCP/IP management settings to
take effect.
CAUTION: The IP port number must be the same for all hosts that are to be managed. Setting an IP port
number for one host to a different value than the other hosts will make the host unable to manage
other hosts over TCP/IP using a different port, as well as make the host unmanageable over
TCP/IP from other hosts using a different port.
•Register this host with specific management host - This setting enables you to register this host
with a specific host for management. If enabled, you must supply the IP address or host name of
the management host. You can also choose to prevent management of this host from any other
host, but the management host. See “The Management Host” on page 29 for more informa tion.
If Local Management Plus or Full Management mode are selected, you can a lso set read -only mode.
•Read-only operation - This setting prevents certain operations from being performed, such as
resetting adapters, updating the adapter firmware image and changing adapter settings and
driver properties. Dialog box controls that pertain to these tasks are completely hidden or
disabled.
The Management Host
The OneCommand Manager application Management Host feature provides en hanced discovery and
security by enabling a managed host to register with a management host. The management ho st
receives these registrations when the remote host is started and updates its hosts file so the discovery
server discovers the remotely managed host. You do not need to manually add remote hosts to be
managed.
If you choose to exclude management from all hosts except the management host, the mana ged host
will only respond to requests from the management host. All requests from other hosts are rejected. This
TCP/IP management security solution only allows the management host to manage the remote host.
To change management/read-only mode:
Note: After making changes, you must restart the OneCommand Manager application to
see the new management mode settings.
In Windows
1. From the File menu, select Management Mode. T he Mana gement M ode dia log box appe ars.

/usr/sbin/ocmanager/set_operating_mode
3. Choose the management type and read-on ly mode you wan t.
Configuring Discovery
Automatic FC Discovery
Adapters that have a physical FC connection to the same SAN are discovered automatically wh en the
OneCommand Manager application is launched. Adapters that do not have a physical FC connection to
the SAN, where the OneCommand Manager application is launched, can be discovered by sending
management requests to the remote host using TCP/IP.
Note: The OneCommand Manager application can only discover and manage remote
adapters on hosts running the OneCommand Manager application’s remote
management server. Remote FC capabilities of the OneCommand Manager
application are subject to fabric zoning. Hosts you want to discover and manage
using the OneCommand Manager application must be in the same zone or
discovered and managed through TCP/IP access.
Note: After adding an adapter to a running Windows system (commonly called a hot plug),
click Discovery Refresh () or reconnect to the discovery server to display the new
adapter port in the discovery-tree. Hot plug is only supported by the OneCommand
Manager application on Windows platforms.
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 30
Figure 11: Discovery Information
Remote SAN Management Using TCP/IP Access Protocol
You can discover adapters on IPv4 and IPv6 TCP/IP hosts and on hosts configured to support the CIM
interface that have the OneCommand Manager application in stalled. Remote SAN manageme nt over
TCP/IP sends remote management requests using TCP/IP access protocol to remote hosts. TCP/IP
access enables you to access adapters via their host IP-address or by the name of the host on which
they reside. Since adapters can exist on a host, but not be a part of an FC network or are zoned on the
switch to be hidden to other adapters, they do not appear during normal FC disco very. Thus, TCP/IP
access enlarges the number of adapters that can be discovered and managed.
Note: In Windows, if you are running a firewall you may need to add the OneCommand
Manager application remote server to the firewall’s exception list. This remote
server’s path is:
\Program Files\Emulex\Util \Co mm on\ rms er ver .ex e
On an Itanium 64 host the path is:
\Program Files (x86)\Emulex\Util \C omm on\ rm ser ver .e xe
The principle differences between FC and TCP/IP access are:
•A TCP/IP host with or without an adapter installed does not need to connect to a fabric to
manage other hosts.
•A TCP/IP management host can manage all of the adapters in a remote host, not just the ones
connected to the same fabric. FC can only manage adapters connected to th e same fabr ic.
•You can manage many more hosts since TCP/IP access is not constrained by the boundaries of
a fabric or zoning.
•True board status (e.g. link down) is available since the FC path is not necessary to send a
status request to the remote host.
•Adapter security in a TCP/IP environment is much more important since many more hosts are
available for management and TCP/IP access is not affected by fabrics or zoning.
•Discovery of hosts in a TCP/IP environment is not automatic like FC discovery. You must add
the hosts to be managed.
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 31
•You can add multiple IP addresses for the same host. However, only one of the IP addresses
will be used by OneCommand Manager to manage the adapters on that host.
The Hosts File
The TCP/IP discovery function of the OneCommand Manager application discovery server relies on a
file called the hosts file. This plain text file contains a list of hosts the utility attempts to discover. The
discovery server does not attempt to discover hosts over TCP/IP through any other mechanisms (e.g.
ping sweeps, broadcasts, etc.).
The hosts file is automatically created or modified when you perform any of the following operations:
•Adding a single host from the Add Remote Host window. If the host is discovered, the
OneCommand Manager application adds its IP address and name to the host file.
•Scanning a range of IP addresses for hosts that can be managed. This function is performed in
the Add Remote Hosts window. For each discovered host, the OneCommand Manager
application adds its IP address and name to the host file.
•Removing a host from the host file using the Remove Remote Hosts window. For each removed
host, the OneCommand Manager application removes its IP address and name from the host
file.
•Adding or removing a host using the CLI.
Manually Editing the Hosts File
You can open the hosts file with any text editor, modify the contents and save the file. The name of the
host file is “hbahosts.lst”. Once the file is modified and saved, the updated file is used after the next
TCP/IP discovery cycle is complete. If the discovery server is running, it does not need to be restarted.
To manually edit the hosts file:
1. Locate and open the hosts file.
Windows: The file is located on the system drive in the directory "\Program Files\Emulex\Util" or
"\Program Files (x86)\Emulex\Util" for Itanium 64 hosts.
Solaris: The file is located in the directory "/opt/ELXocm".
Linux: The file is located in the directory "/usr/sbin/ocmanager".
2. Edit the file. Guidelines for editing the file are as follows:
•Each line of the file starts with an IPv4 or IPv6 address. Following the IP address can be any
number of tabs or spaces. This is followed by a “#” character, zero or more tabs or spaces
and the name of the host for that IP address. The host name is not required for discovery. Its
purpose is to make the file more readable and is used by the OneComm and Mana ger
application to display the host name in the Remove Remote Hosts window when the host is
not discovered. However, the discovery server only needs the IP address to discover the
host.
•IPv6 add ress tuples are de limited by colons an d can be added in sh ortened no tation as
defined by the IPv6 address specification.
•An IP port n umber can b e specified after the IPv4 address by appending a colon and por t
number to the address (e.g. 10.192.80.24:23333).
•An IP port n umber can b e specified after an IPv6 address by putting the IPv6 address in
brackets and following it with a colon and the port number. For example,
[fe80::50f1:832:3ce4:8d30]:23333
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 32
•Each lin e in the file can be up to 102 3 characters, altho ugh this is lo nger than is typically
needed for a host IP address and host name. A line longer than 1 023 characte rs is
truncated, possibly causing discovery to not discover some of the hosts.
•Bla nk lines are igno red.
3. Save the file.
Copying the File
A hosts file on one host can be copied and used on anoth er h ost. T his is useful when there are multiple
hosts on the same network running the OneCommand Manager application . For exam ple, once th e
remote hosts are added to the hosts file on one host, you can copy it to other hosts so you do not need
to create another hosts file.
Note: Due to the line terminator differences between Windows and Solaris or Linux hosts,
the files cannot be shared between Windows hosts and Solaris or Linux hosts.
Adding a Single Host
The OneCommand Manager application enables you to specify a single TCP/IP host to manage . You
can add a Remote Management Application Programming Interface (RMAPI) host or CIM host using the
host name or IP address. If the host is successfully discovered it is added to the hosts file. If it has not
been discovered over FC already, the host and its adapter ports are added to the discovery-tree. (Not
available in read-only mode.)
Prerequisites
•The OneCommand Manager application must be installed on the remote host.
Procedure
To add a single host:
1. From the Discovery menu, select TCP/IP>Add Host. The Add Remote TCP/IP Host dialog box
appears.
Figure 12: Add Remote TCP/IP Host dialog box
2. Enter the name or the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the host to be added.
Note: Entering the IP address to identify the host avoids possible name resolution issues.
Note: IPv6 address tuples are delimited by colons and can be entered in a shortened form
(i.e. supressing 0's) as defined by the IPv6 address specification.
3. Configure the discovery method:
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 33
•If you want to ad d the host using d efault discovery methods, check Ad d using default
credentials and click Add Host. Y ou will receive a message indicating whether the new
host was successfully added.
•If you want to ad d the new host u sing specific CIM credentials, ch eck Add usin g spe-cific CIM credentials, modify any additional CIM settings and click Add Host. The Add
Remote TCP/IP Host dialog box appears with default CIM settings.
Note: CIM clients are only supported on Windows remote GUI OneCommand Manager
4. Edit the default CIM settings if necessary and click Add H ost. You will receive a message
indicating the new host was successfully added.
Adding a Range of Hosts
You find the TCP/IP-accessed manageable hosts by searching a range of IP addresses. The Add Range
of TCP/IP Hosts dialog box enables you to build the initial list of TCP/IP accessed manageable hosts.
(Not available in read-only mode.)
Note: The ranges of IP addresses are only scanned each time you open the Add Remote
TCP/IP Hosts dialog box and click Start Discovery. The ranges are NOT
automatically scanned by the discovery server during its discovery cycles.
Note: CIM is only supported on Windows systems.
Note: Adding a range of hosts is only supported for IPv4 addresses. It is not supported for
IPv6 addresses.
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 34
Figure 14: Add Range of TCP/IP Hosts dialog box
Prerequisites
•The OneCommand Manager application must be installed on all remote hosts.
Procedure
To add a range of remote hosts:
1. From the Discovery menu, select TCP/IP>Add Range of Hosts. The Add Range of TCP/IP
Hosts dialog box appears.
2. Enter the complete start and end address range (IPv4 only) and click Add . The adde d address
range appears in the dialog box. Add any additional ranges you want to search.
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 35
3. Click Start Discovery. If an address is remotely manageable, it is added to the list of addresses
that the discovery server will attempt to discover. The utility creates a host file if necessary, and
checks each address in the range to determine if the host is available and remotely
manageable. The number of addresses (of manageable hosts) discovered is periodically
updated on the dialog box.
Note: The number of addresses doe s not correspond directly to the number of hosts added
to the discovery-tree.
For example, some of the addresses discovered may be for hosts that have already
been discovered over FC. However, new adapters can be discovered on those hosts
that were not discovered over FC.
Also, a host can have more than one IP address assigned to it. If multiple IP
addresses for a host are discovered during the search, the host will be added to the
discovery tree only once.
4. You can save the IP address ranges. Click Save Ranges to File to save the specified range(s)
to a file so that these address ranges appear the next time you use the Add Range of T CP/IP
Hosts dialog box.
Removing Hosts
Removing hosts that are no longer discovered improves the operation of the d iscovery server. For
example, you may want to remove a host when it is removed from the network. (Not available in readonly mode.)
To remove hosts:
1. From the Discovery menu, select TCP/IP>Remove Host(s). The Remove Hosts dialog box
shows a list of discovered hosts. Any host that is not currently discovered appears in red. Click
Show Undiscovered Hosts Only to display only currently undiscovered hosts.
2. From the Remove Hosts dialog box, select the hosts you want to remove. You can select all the
displayed hosts by clicking Select All.
3. Click Remove to remove the selected hosts.
Configuring Discovery and CIM Credentials
Use the OneCommand Manager application Discovery Settings dialog box to con figure se veral
discovery server parameters. You can define when to start the discovery server, when to refresh FC and
TCP/IP accessed discoveries and when to remove previously discovered adapters that are n o longe r
being discovered. You can also define default CIM credentials such as the protocol, user name, port
number, password and name space.
Note: Management of CIM hosts is only supported on Windows systems.
Note: The number of addresses does not correspond directly to the number of hosts added
to the discovery-tree.
For example, some of the addresses discovered may be for hosts that have already been disco vered
over FC. However, new adapters can be discovered on those hosts that were not discovered over FC.
Also, a host can have more than one IP address assigned to it. If multiple IP addresses for a host are
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 36
discovered during the search, the host will be added to the discovery-tree only once. If the same host
name appears for more than one host, the adapters of all these hosts will be displayed by the
OneCommand Manager application as a single host entry.
Figure 15: Discovery Settings dialog box
To configure discovery settings:
1. From the Discovery menu, select Modify Sett ings. The Discovery Settin gs dialog box appears.
2. Define the discovery properties you want.
3. The CIM credentials group can be used to set the defa ult CIM cred entials which will be used by
default to connect to all the ESX hosts that are managed through the CIM interface.
•Protoco l: The http or https protocol can be used to connect to th e ESX hosts. The default
port numbers used for http and https are 5988 and 5989 respectively. The port number will
change automatically according to the protocol selected. The use r can also m anually
change the port number. Since, by default, the HTTP is disabled on sfcb in ESXi host, user
should use HTTPS to communicate to the ESXi host.
•User na me: The u ser name field con tains the username with which to connect to the ESX
hosts. By default this will be ‘root’
•Password: This password field will contain the password of the user name which will be
used to connect to the ESX host.
•Name space: Namespace is the namespace of the emulex provid er.
For ESX/ESXi 40 and 41, the namespace is ‘root/emulex’.
For ESX 3.5, the namespace is ‘elxhbacmpi/cimv2 ’.
The OneCommand Manager User ManualPage 37
Note: If the Emulex CIM Provider present in ESXi / ESX is inbox provider , then the namesp ace to be used is
“elxhbacmpi/cimv2”. If the out-of-box CIM Provider is installed, then the namespace to be used is “root/
emulex”.
Table 2 , “Namespaces Used for Providers,” lists the namespaces to be used with the
inbox providers and the out-of-the-box providers for various versions of ESX/ESXi:
If the provider name is prefixed with deb, it is an inbox provider. If the provider name is prefixed with
cross, it is an out-of-box provider as shown in the following response samples:

Grouping Hosts
The OneCommand Manager application enables you to assign related hosts to host groups. Typically,
hosts within the same host group share some common function or they may simply r eside within the
same organizational unit within an enterprise such as "Payroll" group, or a "Shipping/Receiving" group.
You can display the hosts in the discovery-tree in either a group centric format or in the host-based flat
format. The Host grouping feature is available in Host view, Vport view or Fabric view mode.
Note: The same fabric may appear under more than one host group. For example, some
ports on the fabric may be attached to ports/hosts in one host group, and other ports
on the same fabric may be attached ports/hosts in a different host group.
You can also perform batch operations such as firmware download and driver parameter upd ates on a
selected set of groups. See “Updating Firmware for Multiple Adapters” on page 147 for more
information.
Note: Grouping hosts is not supported on VMware.

Exporting Host Grouping Configurations
To exp ort the host grouping co nfiguration to a remote host, you must cop y the various host gr oup
configuration files from the host on which the configuration was created to the remote host. Copy the
entire contents of the config/hostgroups subdirectory under the OneCommand installation directory to
the equivalent location on the remote system. The host groups configuration file locations for the
supported platforms are:
Note: The host group configuration files are completely interchangeable between different
operating systems. For example, the host group configuration files created on a
Solaris hosts can be copied directly to a Linux or Windows host, with no conversion
required.
Searching for Hosts
The OneCommand Manager application enables you to search the discovery-tree for a particular host by
the host’s name. If the specified host name is found, the discovery-tree scrolls up or down to bring the
desired host name into view.
This feature is especially useful when you are searching for a host in large installation with hundreds or
thousands of hosts. It is also helpful in Fabric view mode, since the ports on a specific host may be
dispersed among several fabrics making the ports on that host difficult to find in the discovery-tree.
To search for a host:
1. Do one of the following:
•From the Edit menu, select Find... and enter the name of the host you are searching for into
the Find Host field.
•From the toolbar, enter the name of the host you are searching for into the Find Host field.
2. From the toolbar click Find Host or press <Enter> on the keyboard.
The host you are searching for is highlighted in the discovery-tree.
The Find Next option on the Edit menu, or pressing F3, enables you to continue searching for
more instances of the name you specified.
