Administration Console Sign-In
After you install the Controller, you must sign in to the Administration
Console to perform tasks as explained in this chapter.
 Note |
The tasks below are not applicable for a Live Data only deployment.
|
To sign in, open a browser and enter the URL for your Controller
(http://<HostAddress>/oamp), where HostAddress is the
host name or IP Address of the
Controller. This opens the Administration Console.
Sign in using the System Application credentials.
Upload License
You have limited
functionality on the Administration Console and no access to the Unified Intelligence Center
Reporting interface until you upload the license file. To upload the license:
Procedure
Step 1
| Sign in to the Administration Console and select
.
|
Step 2

Upload license file (Browse) and navigate to
the local directory where your license is stored. Then click
Apply License to load the license.

Define Member Node in Administration Console
If you intend to add a Member node, you must define the Member in the
Administration console before you run the installation for the Member.
Procedure
Step 1
| To access the Administration console, direct a browser to the URL
http://<HOST ADDRESS>/oamp
where HOST ADDRESS is the IP Address or Hostname of your
server.
|
Step 2
| Sign in using the system application user ID and password that you
defined during installation. Refer to your
Configuration Worksheet. |
Step 3
| From the panel in the left, select the
Device Management drawer. Then select
Device Configuration.
Figure 1. Device Configuration

The Device Configuration page shows the Controller that you have
installed. Note that the hostname defaults to the alias CUIC1. (You can change
it.)
|
Step 4
| On the Device Configuration page, click
Add Member.
|
Step 5
| On the Device Configuration fields for the new Member, enter a
name by which you can identify the Member, the hostname or IP address, and a
description for the device.

Verify Controller Is Synchronized with NTP Server
Make sure that the
Network Time Protocol (NTP) on the Controller node is synchronized with the NTP
server before you install the Member node.
To do this:
Procedure
Step 1
| Access the Command Line Interface on the Controller node directly,
by using the monitor and keyboard at the server console. At the login prompt:
- Enter the ID for the
System Administrator user (created during Basic Install configuration).
- When prompted, enter the password for the System
Administration user.
|
Step 2
| Enter this command:
utils ntp status.
The output must indicate that the node is synchronized with an
NTP server. If the Controller node is not synchronized with an NTP server, the
installation of the Member node will fail.
|
Now that the Member is
defined in Device Configuration and the NTP synchronization is verified, you
can begin to configure and install that member. See Installation and Configuration for Member Node.
