Figure 4-2 Management Board

The following paragraphs describe the main components on the management board in more detail.

Service Processor

The Service Processor is a management controller. For Express5800/A1160 systems, the Service Processor

yExecutes the management firmware to provide the management and maintenance capabilities

yProvides access and control to the hardware units in the cell

yProvides connections to the Service Processors in the other cells in a system

The Service Processor runs on keep-alive power so it is functional whenever AC power is applied to the cell.

The Service Processor also includes a flash card for storing system information and other data.
