CHAPTER: Introduction

1. INTRODUCTION

Dell UPS Local Node Manager discovers and supervises Dell’s UPSs and ePDUs connected across a

network either by means of a card or proxy. It supervises the remote servers hosting the Dell UPS

Local Node Manager. It also provides local computer graceful shutdown. The Dell ULNM interface

can be accessed remotely using a web browser.

Our objective is to provide a virtualization support for Dell’s power protection software – Dell UPS

Local Node Manager. So, the purpose of this document is to understand the installation and

configuration of Dell ULNM on Xen virtualization environment.

This has been tested upon different Xen environments. For more information, refer appendix A.

CHAPTER: Citrix Xen

2.1. CITRIX XENSERVER CONFIGURATION

Before installing Dell ULNM on Citrix XenServer host, following configurations have to be made:

Hardware support for virtualization must be enabled on the Host. This is an option in the

BIOS. It is possible your BIOS might have virtualization support disabled. Consult your BIOS

documentation for more details.

For automatic OS boot on startup, you must configure the physical machine to do the same.

This setting is present in BIOS. For further information, see specific technical hardware

documentation.

In XenServer, to allow virtual machines to function properly, it is recommended that PV Tools

(XenTools) should be installed on each virtual machine. For further information, see the

appropriate XenServer Installation guide.

XenCenter is an administrative console which monitors and manages XenServer hosts and guest

machines. To make every virtual machine start automatically, select the check box (it is located in

properties of every virtual machine) in XenCenter for the option “Allow virtual machines to start and

stop automatically with the system”.

CHAPTER: Citrix Xen

2.2. PREREQUISITES TO INSTALL DELL ULNM ON CITRIX XENSERVER 5.6 X86

MACHINE

1. XenServer host having 5 MB free space.

2. Dell ULNM installation packages on XenServer

Notes:

XenServer and XenCenter should be of same version. For compatibility issues, refer

XenServer installation guide

To allow a graceful shutdown of the Virtual machines, you have to install PV Tools (XenTools)

on each virtual machine.

In case of resource pools, if the slave machine goes down, then master machine will continue

functioning. But if we shutdown master machine, all the guest machine in that pool will go

down and the pool will be out of action until master is rebooted.

2.3. DELL ULNM INSTALLATION

2.3.1. HARDWARE ARCHITECTURE

The prerequisites for Dell UPS Local Node Manager installation are described in the "Dell UPS Local

Node Manager –User Guide" document, in chapter: “Installation Prerequisites“.

(http://dellups.com/). For UPS systems compatibility, please refer to the chapter “Appendix ->

Compatibility List” in this document.

2.3.2. NETWORK ARCHITECTURE

All hardware elements must have an operational network configuration that allows them to

communicate freely with each other.

Please make sure that the following TCP/UDP ports are enabled on XenSever Firewall:

Connections on tcp port 4679 and 4680 to enable a remote access for supervision and

configuration through Web Browser. These ports are reserved at IANA

(http://www.iana.org/).

Connections through TCP port 80. It must be opened as a destination port (for output) on the

machine hosting Intelligent Power Protector.

To install Dell ULNM package:

-Install Dell UPS Local Node Manager rpm package on XenServer by following command:

-For silent installation process, please refer to Dell UPS Local Node Manager User Guide.

At the end, connect to Dell UPS Local Node Manager using your web browser by typing :

-http://<@IP-or-name-of-XenServer>:4679 (For a HTTP access)

-https://<@ IP-or-name-of-XenServer>:4680 (For a HTTPS access)

Now Dell UPS Local Node Manager interface will be displayed.

CHAPTER: Xen on RHEL 5 and Debian 5.0 (Lenny)

3.1. XEN DOMAIN0 CONFIGURATION

Before installing Dell ULNM on RHEL/Debian Lenny where Xen Domain0 is enabled, the following

configurations have to be made:

Hardware support for virtualization must be enabled on the host. This is an option in the

BIOS. It is possible your BIOS might have virtualization support disabled. Consult your BIOS

documentation for more details.

For automatic OS boot on startup, you must configure the physical machine to do the same.

This setting is present in BIOS. For further information, see specific technical hardware

documentation.

In order to allow windows virtual machines to function properly, it is recommended that GPL

Para virtualized (PV) drivers should be installed on each windows virtual machine.

3.2. PREREQUISITES TO INSTALL DELL ULNM ON XEN ENABLED ON RHEL5/D EBIAN 5.0

(LENNY)

1. Xen hypervisor (on RHEL/Debian) having minimum 5 MB free space.

2. Dell ULNM installation packages on RHEL/Debian.

Notes:

1. To allow a graceful shutdown of guest virtual machines, you have to install GPL PV drivers

on each virtual machine.

2. UPSs through RS232 connectivity will not be supported on RHEL5 as serial ports are used by

Xen.
