A quick and easy guide to setting up the Dell PowerEdge C8000

Installing BMC cables

You can access the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) of a sled using

two modes of operation:

 Non-Central Independent Mode, in which you access BMC through a

dedicated NIC using the sled’s BMC management port

 Non-Central Consolidated Mode, in which you access BMC through a

shared NIC using the PowerEdge C8000 server enclosure’s BMC

management port and Ethernet port.

For our setup, we chose the Non-Central Consolidated Mode as this reduces the

number of Ethernet cables required for system management. To use Non-Central

Consolidated Mode, a BMC management cable must be installed inside the sleds. To

install the BMC management cable, you must open the sled and remove the hard drive

carrier and tray. Figure 5 shows the BMC cable installed.
