Description

System Status

View system health for a server,
view the operating-system-failure
screen capture, and view the
users who are logged in to the
IMM

You can monitor the server power and health state, and
the temperature, voltage, and fan status of your server on
the System Health page. You can also view the image of
the last operating-system-failure screen capture and the
users who are logged in to the IMM.

Easy LED
Diagnostics

View the name, color, and status
of every LED on the server light
path

The Easy LED Diagnostics page displays the current
status of the LEDs on the server.

Event Log

View event logs for remote
servers

The Event Log page contains entries that are currently
stored in the chassis-event log. The log includes a text
description of events that are reported by the BMC, plus
information about all remote access attempts and
configuration changes. All events in the log are time
stamped, using the IMM date and time settings. Some
events also generate alerts, if they are configured to do so
on the Alerts page. You can sort and filter events in the
event log.

Vital Product Data

View the server vital product data
(VPD)

The IMM collects server information, server firmware
information, and server component VPD. This data is
available from the Vital Product Data page.

Power/Restart

Remotely turn on or restart a
server

The IMM provides full remote power control over your
server with power-on, power-off, and restart actions. In
addition, power-on and restart statistics are captured and
displayed to show server hardware availability.

Remote Control

Redirect the server video console
and use your computer disk drive
or disk image as a drive on the
server

From the Remote Control page, you can start the Remote
Control feature. With Remote Control, you can view the
server console from your computer, and you can mount
one of your computer disk drives, such as the CD-ROM
drive or the diskette drive, on the server. You can use
your mouse and keyboard to interact with and control the
server. When you have mounted a disk, you can use it to
restart the server and to update firmware on the server.
The mounted disk appears as a USB disk drive that is
attached to the server.

PXE Network Boot

Change the host server startup
(boot) sequence for the next
restart to attempt a Preboot
Execution Environment (PXE) /
Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) network startup

If your server firmware and PXE boot agent utility are
correctly defined, from the PXE Network Boot page you
can change the host server startup (boot) sequence for the
next restart to attempt a PXE / DHCP network startup.
The host startup sequence will be altered only if the host
is not under Privileged Access Protection (PAP). After the
next restart occurs, the check box on the PXE Network
Boot page will be cleared.

Firmware Update

Update firmware on the IMM

Use the options on the Firmware Update page to update
the IMM firmware, server firmware, and DSA firmware.
