vRemote presence capability and blue-screen capture

The remote presence feature provides the following functions:

Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at 85 Hz, regardless of the system state

Remotely accessing the server, using the keyboard and mouse from a remote client

Mapping the CD or DVD drive, diskette drive, and USB flash drive on a remote client, and mapping ISO and diskette image files as virtual drives that are available for use by the server

Uploading a diskette image to the IMM memory and mapping it to the server as a virtual drive

The blue-screen capture feature captures the video display contents before the IMM restarts the server when the IMM detects an operating-system hang condition. A system administrator can use the blue-screen capture to assist in determining the cause of the hang condition.

vPreboot diagnostics programs

The preboot diagnostics programs are stored on the integrated USB memory. It collects and analyzes system information to aid in diagnosing server problems. The diagnostics programs collect the following information about the server:

System configuration

Network interfaces and settings

Installed hardware

Service processor status and configuration

Vital product data, firmware, and UEFI (formerly BIOS) configuration

Hard disk drive health

RAID controller configuration

Event logs for service processors

The diagnostic programs create a merged log that includes events from all collected logs. The information is collected into a file that you can send to Lenovo service and support. Additionally, you can view the information locally through a generated text report file. You can also copy the log to a removable media and view the log from a Web browser.

For additional information about preboot diagnostics, see the Hardware Maintenance Manual.
