Features and technologies

The RD220 server offers the following features and technologies:

vUEFI-compliant server firmware

UEFI replaces the basic input/output system (BIOS) and defines a standard interface between the operating system, platform firmware, and external devices. UEFI-compliant servers are capable of booting UEFI-compliant operating systems, BIOS-based operating systems, and BIOS-based adapters as well as UEFI-compliant adapters.

Note: This server does not support DOS.

vIntegrated Management Module

The Integrated Management Module (IMM) combines service processor functions, video controller, and (when IMM Premium is installed) remote presence function in a single chip. The IMM provides advanced service-processor control, monitoring, and alerting function. If an environmental condition exceeds a threshold or if a system component fails, the IMM lights LEDs to help you diagnose the problem, records the error in the event log, and alerts you to the problem. IMM Premium provides a virtual presence capability for remote server management capabilities. The IMM provides remote server management through industry-standard interfaces:

–Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) version 2.0

–Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 3
