Managing the Server Remotely

7.If you chose Static IP Setup in the previous step, fill in the IP addressing boxes:

•Host IP Address: the IP address of this server.

•Gateway IP Address: the IP address of the router for this server.

•Subnet Mask: the IP address for the server’s subnet. The server uses this to decide if the alert destination is on the same subnet.

8.In the Alert IP Address box, fill in the IP address of the system you want to receive alerts from this server. If you want the alert to be broadcast to an entire subnet, enter the IP address for the subnet.

9.From the Options menu, choose Configure Event Actions.

10.In the BMC LAN Alerting Actions window, move the events that you want to generate an alert to the Enabled column and move all other events to the disabled column using the following buttons:

•>>: Moves all events from the enabled list to the disabled list.

•>: Moves the selected event from the enabled list to the disabled list.

•<: Moves the selected event from the disabled list to enabled the list.

•<<: Moves all events from the disabled list to the enabled list.

11.Click Save to save the changes.

12.Click Close to return to the BMC LAN Configuration window.

13.To send a test alert to verify that you have correctly configured BMC LAN alerts, from the Options menu, choose Send Alert.

14.Click Save to save the changes.

15.Click Close to return to the PEM window.

You can set up the server to so that you can connect to it from a remote client system to perform management tasks. You can make the connection over a LAN or by using a modem or direct serial cable to the Emergency Management Port (EMP). Instructions for setting up the server for remote LAN and serial/modem access are given below.

Setting Up Remote LAN Access

To configure remote LAN access:

1.From the SSU Main window, choose Platform Event Manager (PEM).

2.In the PEM window, click Configure LAN.

3.If you want to require a password for remote access, enter the password in the Enter New Password box and in the Verify New Password box. Passwords can be from 1 to 16 characters long, using any ASCII character in the range [32-126]. To clear the passwords, leave both boxes blank. (You can also clear the password by choose the menu Options > Clear LAN Password.)

4.From the LAN Access Mode list, select the remote access mode:

•Full Access: a remote system can initiate a LAN connection regardless of the state or health of the server.

SHG2 specifications

Intel SHG2, short for Server High-Performance GPU 2, represents a significant evolution in graphics technology designed to meet the demanding requirements of data centers and high-performance computing applications. Developed to support a range of workloads, SHG2 is particularly optimized for artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data analytics.

One of the defining features of the Intel SHG2 is its impressive processing power. With numerous cores capable of parallel processing, it can execute multiple tasks simultaneously, leading to faster computation times. This architecture makes it incredibly efficient for applications that require heavy calculations and real-time data processing.

The SHG2 also embraces advanced fabrication technologies, moving to smaller nodes that enhance power efficiency while delivering higher performance. These innovations not only allow for improved thermal management but also contribute to the reduction of overall energy consumption, making the SHG2 a more environmentally friendly choice for server operations.

In terms of memory support, the SHG2 offers a robust configuration, accommodating high-bandwidth memory (HBM) that ensures quick access to critical data. This feature is essential for applications needing rapid data retrieval and integration, such as deep learning models where every millisecond counts.

Moreover, the SHG2 is built with compatibility in mind. It integrates seamlessly with existing Intel architectures, allowing organizations to leverage their current investments while upgrading their processing capabilities. This compatibility makes it easier for businesses to enhance their infrastructure without undergoing a complete overhaul of their systems.

Another salient characteristic of the Intel SHG2 is its support for virtualization. This allows multiple workloads to be handled simultaneously on a single GPU, maximizing resource utilization and enhancing overall system performance. As enterprises increasingly adopt cloud-based solutions, the ability to virtualize GPU resources becomes critical.

Security is also a major consideration in the design of the SHG2. Intel has incorporated various security features to ensure that data is protected against unauthorized access and vulnerabilities that could threaten system integrity.

As businesses increasingly turn to AI and machine learning to drive innovation, the Intel SHG2 positions itself as an essential tool for those looking to harness the power of advanced computing. With its impressive features, powerful performance, and forward-thinking design, is a strategic choice for organizations aiming to enhance their computational capabilities and meet the challenges of tomorrow's technological landscape.
