vDIMM error assistance. The Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) disables a failing DIMM that is detected during POST, and the IMM lights the associated system-error LED and the failing DIMM error LED.

vEnvironmental monitor with fan speed control for temperature, voltages, fan failure, and power supply failure.

vIntelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) Specification V2.0 and Intelligent Platform Management Bus (IPMB) support.

vInvalid system configuration (CNFG) LED support.

vLight path diagnostics LEDs to report errors that occur with fans, power supplies, microprocessor, hard disk drives, and system errors.

vNonmaskable interrupt (NMI) detection and reporting.

vOperating-system failure blue screen capture.

vPCI configuration data.

vPECI 2 support.

vPower/reset control (power-on, hard and soft shutdown, hard and soft reset, schedule power control).

vQuery power-supply input power.

vROM-based IMM firmware flash updates.

vSerial over LAN (SOL).

vSerial port redirection over Telnet or SSH.

vSystem-event log.

When one of the two microprocessors reports an internal error, the IMM disables the defective microprocessor and restarts the server with the one good microprocessor.

The IMM also provides the following remote server management capabilities through the OSA SMBridge management utility program:

vCommand-line interface (IPMI Shell)

The command-line interface provides direct access to server management functions through the IPMI 2.0 protocol. Use the command-line interface to issue commands to control the server power, view system information, and identify the server. You can also save one or more commands as a text file and run the file as a script.

vSerial over LAN

Establish a Serial over LAN (SOL) connection to manage servers from a remote location. You can remotely view and change the UEFI settings, restart the server, identify the server, and perform other management functions. Any standard Telnet client application can access the SOL connection.

Obtaining the IP address for the IMM web interface access

To access the IMM web interface, you need the IP address of the IMM, which you can obtain through the Setup utility. To obtain the IP address, complete the following steps:

1.Turn on the server.

2.When the prompt <F1> Setup is displayed, press F1. If you have set both a power-on password and an administrator password, you must type the administrator password to access the full Setup utility menu.
