Chapter 8: P2ZCIMs and Z-CIMs 

 

 

If the LED is blinking on and off but at a regulated, moderate speed, 
that is, every half second: that P2ZCIM is acting as Manager of the 
chain. 

 

Z-CIM installation requires that servers are assigned names when added 
to the Z-CIM chain. The default name of any Z-CIM is its serial number, 
which is not meaningful to you. In order to name the Z-CIM, it must be 
connected to a server that is turned on and to the Paragon switch to get 
status and name assignment. 

To organize and track Z-CIMs and the servers to which they are 
connected, we recommend one of two methods: 

 

Record the serial numbers of the Z-CIMs connected to each server, 
and then name all Z-CIMs at one time after the chain is complete. 

 

First complete the chain and then turn on the Z-CIM one at a time, 
checking the serial number on the Z-CIM as it is connected, and 
assigning the proper name to the proper server Z-CIM. 

When naming or renaming a Z-CIM, switch to that Z-CIM to activate it, 
thereby ensuring that its new name is updated in the Paragon switch's 
database.
