BMC discovery

This function is to discover BMC entries.

Procedure

  1. Select the Hypervisors or the Lenovo Infrastructure root entry in the navigation pane of the Lenovo XClarity Integrator Add-in.
  2. Choose the BMC Management page on the top of the main frame.
  3. Click Discover.
    The BMC Discovery dialog displays.
  4. Enter one IP address or a range of IP addresses.
    IPv4 and IPv6 are supported.
  5. Click OK in the BMC Discovery dialog.

    The dialog closes immediately if the Run in the background option is selected. Otherwise, the dialog closes when the discovery process has successfully completed. Successful completion means that the request has been handled and returned regardless of the number of BMC entries actually discovered.

    If the request has successfully completed, the newly discovered BMC entries are updated on the BMC table on the BMC Management page.

    The dialog remains open when there is a failure in handling the request. This can occur when the request has not reached to the server due to a communication failure.
