Appliance settings
Use this page to change the settings for a DataPower® appliance.
Appliances are added to the DataPower appliance manager
to synchronize the firmware, shareable appliance settings and managed
domains of a group of appliances called a managed set.
To view this administrative console page, click appliance_name.
In the Domains section, you can expand to view a list of the managed domains
that are on the appliance, and the status of each of these domains.
You can also expand to view the unmanaged domains that are on the appliance.
Domains, by default, are not managed. Unmanaged domains are not copied
to subordinate appliances in the managed set. Managed domains are
copied to subordinate appliances in the managed set.
Name
Specifies a user-defined symbolic name for a DataPower appliance.
An appliance name must be unique, and cannot contain the following
invalid characters: # $ @ \ / , : ; " * ? < > | = + & % '.
Host name
Specifies an IP address or the fully qualified host name
of a DataPower appliance.
Administrative port
Specifies the XML management interface port used by the
appliance.
User ID
Specifies the user ID used by DataPower appliance
manager to login to an appliance.
Password
Specifies the password for the user ID provided.
Verify password
Also specifies the password for the user ID provided. If
you change the password value, you must respecify the new value in
this field to ensure that you entered it correctly.
Serial number
Specifies the serial number for the appliance. This field
is read-only.
Appliance type
Specifies the appliance type, such as XA35, XS40, or XI50.
Licensed features
Specifies a comma-separated list of the licensed features
that are on this appliance. All of the appliances in a managed set
must have the same appliance type, model type and licensed features.
Firmware has a list of the licensed features that are contained in
the firmware. Any firmware that is loaded onto an appliance must have
a list of licensed features that is compatible with the licensed features
that are on that appliance.
Because managed sets contain appliances that all must be of the
same appliance type, model type and licensed features, you cannot
use a firmware with a managed set that has licensed features that
are incompatible with the appliances in that managed set. If you attempt
to load a firmware that has a list of features that is incompatible
with the licensed features of the appliance, the firmware does not
load, and an error message is issued.
Firmware level
Specifies the numeric level of the firmware that is currently
on the appliance. Each firmware version in the DataPower appliance
manager is for a specific appliance type, model type, list of licensed
features, and level.
It is possible that a firmware version might already exist in the
DataPower appliance manager that has the same appliance type, model
type, list of licensed features, and level as the firmware that is
currently on this appliance.
Firmware synchronization status
Specifies whether the firmware version for an appliance
is synchronized with the active firmware version for the managed set.
The status is unknown if the appliance is not part of a managed set.
If the appliance is part of a managed set, the status indicates whether
the firmware that is associated with the appliance is synchronized
with the designated firmware for the managed set.
This field is read-only. The following values might appear in this
field:
- synched
- Indicates that the firmware version for this appliance is the
same as the firmware version for the managed set.
- changes pending
- Indicates that the firmware is being synchronized.
- in progress
- Indicates that the synchronization for the firmware on this appliance
is currently being processed.
- unknown
- Indicates that the synchronization status for the firmware on
this appliance is not known. Typically, this status indicates that
the appliance manager has not yet contacted the appliance to get the
synchronization status, or the appliance is not a member of a managed
set.
- error
- Indicates that an attempt to synchronize the firmware that is
associated with the managed set has failed because of an error on
the appliance. The appliance did respond, but responded with an error.
See the error log for the deployment manager for more information.
- unreachable
- Indicates that an attempt to synchronize the firmware on this
appliance failed because the appliance is not responding. See the
error log for the deployment manager for more information.
Settings synchronization status
Specifies whether the shareable appliance settings for
an appliance are synchronized with the active settings version for
the managed set. The status is unknown if the appliance is not part
of a managed set. If the appliance is part of a managed set, the status
indicates whether or not the sharable settings for the appliance are
synchronized with the designated sharable appliance settings version
for the managed set.
This field is read-only. The following values might appear in this
field:
- synched
- Indicates that the sharable appliance settings for this appliance
are the same as the sharable appliance settings version for the managed
set.
- changes pending
- Indicates that the synchronization for the sharable appliance
settings on this appliance is queued.
- in progress
- Indicates that the shareable appliance settings are being synchronized.
- unknown
- Indicates that the synchronization status for sharable appliance
settings on this appliance is not known. Typically, this status indicates
that the appliance manager has not yet contacted the appliance to
get the synchronization status, or the appliance is not a member of
a managed set, or the appliance is not a member of a managed set.
- error
- Indicates that an attempt to synchronize the sharable appliance
settings on this appliance failed because of an error. The appliance
did respond, but responded with an error. See the error log for the
deployment manager for more information.
- unreachable
- Indicates that an attempt to synchronize the sharable appliance
settings on this appliance failed because the appliance is not responding.
See the error log for the deployment manager for more information.
Model type
Specifies a numeric value for the appliance model. Some
model types include 9001, 9002, and 9003. Each appliance is assigned
a model type.
Synchronization status
Specifies the combined status of the firmware synchronization,
the sharable settings synchronization, and the managed domains synchronization
for the appliance.
This field is read-only. The following values might appear in this
field:
- synched
- Indicates that the firmware, sharable appliance settings and managed
domains for the appliance are synchronized with the active firmware,
sharable appliance and domain versions for the managed set.
- changes pending
- Indicates that at least one firmware synchronization, sharable
appliance settings synchronization, or managed domains synchronization
is queued.
- in progress
- Indicates that the synchronization is currently being processed.
The appliance has at least one firmware synchronization, settings
synchronization, or managed domain synchronization active. Other firmware
synchronizations, settings synchronizations, or managed domain synchronizations
might also be pending for this appliance.
- unknown
- Indicates that the synchronization status is not known for at
least one firmware synchronization, settings synchronization, or managed
domain synchronization. Typically, this status means that the appliance
manager has not yet contacted the appliance to get the management
status. It is possible that other firmware synchronization, settings
synchronization, or managed domain synchronizations are also pending
or in progress for the appliance.
- error
- Indicates that an attempt to process a firmware synchronization,
settings synchronization, or managed domain synchronization for this
appliance has failed because of an error. The appliance did respond,
but responded with an error on the appliance. This appliance might
also have a management status of unknown, in progress or changes pending
for a firmware synchronization, settings synchronization, or managed
domain synchronization. See the error log for the deployment manager
for more information.
- unreachable
- Indicates that an attempt to synchronize the appliance has failed
because the appliance is not responding. This appliance might also
have a management status of unknown, in progress, changes pending
or error for a firmware synchronization, settings synchronization,
or managed domain synchronization. See the error log for the deployment
manager for more information.
