Intel® Server Management (ISM) Question
Both SCW and ISM have options to configure certain sections of the server’s firmware.
By default, servers with the Intel® Management Module should:
• Load FRUs and SDRs (can be done with SCW or FRU/SDR utility)
• Configure Channels (can be done with SCW or ISM)
• Configure Users and Advanced Features (Advanced module). (Use SCW only)
Figure 4. Configuration via ISM or SCW?
The Wizard will ask if ISM will be installed, but this question is actually asking which utility should be used to setup the Channels and Users.

Yes: Uses ISM to configure the Channels and Users. If Yes is selected, only a limited SCW Configuration Options screen will appear. (See explanations of components starting at Section 7.) The options to configure Users and Channels will NOT appear. Choose yes for:

Servers with an Intel Management Module – Professional Edition installed.

No: Allows SCW to setup all the components. Shows Users and Channels. Choose No for:

Servers where ISM will not be installed

Servers where ISM will be installed using the “No Agents” option.

Servers with an Intel Management Module – Advanced Edition installed.

NOTE: An ISM install after SCW configuration will overwrite some of the SCW settings.

Unattended Configuration and Cloning/Restore Option

The configuration choices may be saved to a removable media device. The saved files may be used to later install the settings without user intervention or to restore to a particular series of settings on the same or an identical server To use a saved file, choose Load from Diskette (may be any viewable removable media – see Appendix B.)
