FUJITSU INTEGRATED REMOTE MANAGEMENT CONTROLLER IRMC S2/S3 - Manual (Page 14)

14 iRMC S2/S3
Functions of the iRMC S2/S3
● Power consumption control
The iRMC S2/S3 allows comprehensive power consumption control on the
managed server. In addition, you can specify the mode (minimum power
consumption or maximum performance) that the iRMC S2/S3 uses to control
power consumption on the managed server. You can switch between these
modes as required.
● Customer Self Service (CSS)
Summary tables for the server components, sensors and the power supply
on the iRMC S2/S3 web interface provide information in a separate column
as to whether the server component affected is a CSS component or not. In
addition, error list of the system event log (SEL) shows for every event
whether it has been triggered by a CSS component.
● Text console redirection
You can start a Telnet/SSH session to the iRMC S2/S3 from the ServerView
Remote Management Frontend. This calls the Remote Manager, via which
you can start a text console redirection session.
● Basic functions of a BMC
The iRMC S2/S3 supports the basic functions of a BMC such as voltage
monitoring, event logging and recovery control.
● “Headless” system operation
The managed server does not require a mouse, monitor or keyboard to be
connected. The benefits of this include lower costs, far simpler cabling in the
rack and increased security.
● Identification LED
To facilitate identification of the system, for instance if it is installed in a fully
populated rack, you can activate the identification LED from the iRMC S2/S3
web interface.
● Global error LED
A global error LED informs you of the status of the managed system at all
times and at the same time shows the CSS (Customer Self Service) status.
● Power LED
The power LED informs you whether the server is currently switched on or
off.
