Event Notification
The Integrated Administrator provides real-time event notifications for an
enclosure. When an event occurs, the Integrated Administrator notifies connected
users by generating an icon that the user can click to view more details.
Status Information
The Integrated Administrator enables an enclosure administrator to update the
rack name, enclosure name, asset tag, time zone, date, and time, as well as
observe the status and general information for every component in the enclosure.
Overview of ProLiant BL e-Class Software Tools
ProLiant BL e-Class server blade systems also support the following tools and
utilities to facilitate monitoring and management of the enclosure:
ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU)
RBSU performs a wide range of configuration activities and provides access to
numerous settings, including those for system devices, operating system
selection, and boot controller order. RBSU is also fully compatible with remote
serial console mode using the Integrated Administrator.
Redundant ROM support
Each server blade has two 1-MB ROM images: one of which contains the current
version of the ROM, while the second contains a backup version of the ROM. If
the first ROM becomes corrupt, the system defaults to the backup version,
maximizing uptime and server availability.
Headless server operation
ProLiant BL e-Class server blades include VGA, keyboard, mouse, and USB
interfaces; however, these server blades are designed primarily for headless
operation and management with no keyboard or monitor attached.
