1. Overview
You can use ClearCube ClearView IPMI to manage ClearCube V7000 chassis
containing one or more Chassis Management Modules (CMM) and ClearCube
V7100S blades. ClearView IPMI sends messages to and from the CMM. Messages
are encapsulated in an RMCP+ (Remote Management Control Protocol) packet that
follows the IPMI standard.
ClearView IPMI monitors and reports on the status of a V7100 system, including the
blade server, power supply, gigabit switch, InfiniBand and CMM modules. ClearView
IPMI shows the V7000 and V7100 in a GUI for easy management, enabling
administrators to monitor the status of each blade module. ClearView IPMI also
supports remote KVM and virtual media. This document describes how to use
ClearView IPMI to manage V7000 and V7100 systems.

2. Login and Blade System
One V7000 chassis can have a maximum of two CMM modules, with one as the
master CMM and the other one as the slave CMM. Only the master CMM has the full
management functions for the V7000 chassis. For normal system management, you
should connect to the master CMM. The slave CMM is also operating when the
V7000 is turned on. It will take the role of master CMM if the original master CMM
is reset or hangs. By the way, once slave CMM take over master, the master CMM
will become the slave CMM.
In the ClearView IPMI device list, as shown in Figure 1-2, you will see the V7000
icon ( ) once the CMM added. Double-click this item to display the login screen. To
login:
1. Type in your Username in the Login ID box.
2. Type in your Password in the Password box and click on Login.
3. The default username and the default password are both ADMIN.

Once you login successfully, the Blade System tab is displayed. This is the main
system management UI (User Interface), as shown in Figure 1-3.
Figure 1-3. Blade System UI (User Interface)
The upper window displays the status of all blades being monitored. Any changes to
the V7100S will be reflected in this view. For example, if someone removes blade
module 1, you will see the blade 1 icon disappear (become grayed out). If you turn off
blade module 10, the power LED on blade 10 will become amber. Different types of
blade modules can occupy the same blade system. If you install a different type of
blade module, its icon in the Blade System View will likewise appear slightly
different due to its type. In this way, the Blade System View reflects a real and current
picture of the V7100S modules.
Each module icon in the Blade System View can be clicked on to show a detailed list
of functions in the bottom (Module User Interface) window. Additional summary
items can be viewed as here well. The Module UI allows users to obtain additional
information and send additional commands to the blade modules.
The Module UI has a detach button ( ) at the upper-right of the window. Clicking
on it will detach the UI as a single window as shown in Figure 1-4. This is useful for
continual monitoring of a specific blade module.

1.1. Blade System View
Figure 2-1. Blade System View
As shown in Figure 2-1, the Blade System View provides an overview of the V7000
and V7100S system.
There are four sections in the Blade System View:
Summary: Shows a summary of failures and how many of each type of module
have been installed. The Failure, Blade, Power and Switch items are shown in
greater detail in the Module UI.
Blade System: As shown in Figure 2-2, the Blade System View shows both front
and rear views of the blade system. The front view shows blade module status
while the rear view shows the status of the power supply, gigabit switch,
InfiniBand and CMM. A yellow rectangle appears around an icon when it is
selected (clicked on), as shown in Figure 2-3. Each icon has a symbol to show its
current status. Each module may display one or more symbols. Refer to the
Legend Help (Figure 2-4) to determine the meaning of a symbol. (Click Legend
Help in the View Option window at the lower right area of the screen.)

Chassis LED: Figure 2-5 shows the Chassis LED section, which displays the
Power and Error LEDs for the V7000 chassis. The Power LED shows the current
Blade System power status. The Error LED indicates a system over temperature or
fan failure condition. The Legend Help box also shows the various states indicated
by the Classis LED.

View Option: This option allows a user to choose to show or hide the module
status, picture and number. Figure 2-6 and Figure 2-7 show the results of two
different sets of View Options checked.

Popup Menu Supported:Auser can right click on a blade module to enable a
popup window to perform certain actions. As shown in Figure 2-8, right clicking
on a blade displays a window with power, UID and KVM functions.
