Logical switch configuration guidelines

  • When you enable or disable a top-of-rack switch downlink port, the associated port on a Virtual Connect or Synergy interconnect also displays the updated port status.

  • If HPE OneView cannot log in to the switch during logical switch configuration, a critical alert is generated and the switch transitions to ConfigError state. Resolve the communication issue and reapply the logical switch configuration to recover.

  • HPE OneView can detect configuration changes that occur on the switches specified in the logical switch. Warning alerts are generated when the switch configuration no longer matches the configuration provisioned by HPE OneView.

    To recover, administrators can correct the configuration manually on the physical switch or reapply the configuration on the logical switch.
