Product management and changes

Because of the complexity of ThinkAgile SXM Series solutions, extra caution and planning should be exercised before making certain changes.

High impact changes​

The following changes (or lack of adherence) can significantly impact the functionality of the solution.

  • Changing the point-to-point cabling from the initial configuration.

  • Changing any firmware, software, or operating system (including CNOS, ENOS and Cumulus Linux) to levels outside the Best Recipe.

    See Firmware maintenance and Best Recipe for more information.

  • Changing the IPv4 network scheme, such as addresses and subnets.

  • Changing the IPv4 addresses for servers or switches.

  • Updating the management stack outside of the recommended levels.

  • Resetting the IMM, XCC or UEFI to the initial manufacturing defaults.

  • Resetting a network switch to its initial configuration.

  • Standard management
    After the initial ThinkAgile SXM Series solution setup and configuration by Lenovo Professional Services, you should be able to manage the system routinely with the following software.
