processes that may be running. If the temperature increases too quickly and OMCI does not poll the system in time, it will not generate a shutdown message and the system will not shut down cleanly.

OMCI also contains a start delay for the polling intervals. This determines how long after the operating system loads, OMCI starts checking for the alert status. An alert may be missed if the start delay is set too high.

For instructions on setting polling intervals and enabling or disabling alerts for these devices, see the documentation for your systems management application program.

Remote Shutdown

OMCI supports remote system shutdown and restart.

Remote Wake-Up Configurability

OMCI supports configuration of remote wake-up settings. Remote wake-up is a function of the client system and NIC.

WfM Version 2.0 Compliance

OMCI is compliant with the Intel® Wired for Management (WfM) 2.0 standard. For more information on this standard and its specifications, see the Intel website at www.intel.com.
