ServerConductor/Blade Server Manager Description and Reference

### 3.5.2 Setting site information

To manage servers by site, you can set site information. This information is required when the console service manages servers by site. To set site information, on the Agent Service page, click the Set Site Information button. The Site Information dialog box appears.

In this dialog box, you can set for each site up to eight items of information, which are called classes. We recommend that you set one class at a time, such as the city in class 1, the facility in class 2, and building number, floor, section name, and so on, in other classes. The sites can then be classified by accurate site information.

When you set site information for each managed server, the management console can classify the servers by the site information you have set (see Figure 3-2).

Note
  You can specify a maximum of 256 characters for each class in the Site Information dialog box. Even if the number of characters you specify does not exceed 256, the message Set no more than 256 character per class might be displayed, because the classes are managed by inserting the slash (/) as a delimiter between classes. The following condition must be satisfied:
  - Total number of characters in a class + (class number - 1) 256 (where means less than or equal to)

    Figure 3-2 Example of setting and displaying site information

If erroneous site information is specified, the site might be classified incorrectly when it is displayed at the management console.
