UUID Resource Management

Function

The UUID Resource Management page allows you to manage UUID resource pools and UUIDs. You can set the UUID prefix for a UUID resource pool. The UUIDs are then automatically generated by the MM910 management module. The UUID of a custom profile can be automatically assigned from a UUID resource pool or manually configured. When a common profile is associated with a UUID resource pool and compute nodes, UUIDs are automatically assigned to the compute nodes from the UUID resource pool. Each common profile corresponds to one UUID resource pool.
