Emergency Management Port Console

The Emergency Management Port (EMP) Console is a software application designed to run on a Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0 workstation and provides a server administrator’s interface to the Emergency Management Port (EMP) of the L440GX+ server. This interface allows remote server management via a modem or direct connection.

The server control operations available with EMP Console are:

∙Connecting to remote servers

∙Powering the server on or off

∙Resetting the server

The EMP Console uses three management plug-ins to monitor the server:

∙SEL Viewer

∙SDR Viewer

∙FRU Viewer

The EMP Console also has Phonebook plug-in that can be used to create and maintain a list of servers and their phone numbers.

The EMP Console software utility is on the L440GX+ resource CD that ships with the product. It can be installed directly from the CD onto a workstation or from diskettes that can be created by booting to the ROM-DOS operating system, also on the CD, and selecting Create Diskettes.
