The MCU’s Shelf Management Server is what users are connecting to when accessing the Hardware Monitor pane. This pane can be accessed in either two ways: through the RMX Web Client or the Shelf Management Server. Connection via the Shelf Management Server enables users to access the Hardware Monitor even when the connection through the RMX Web Client is unavailable. The ability to connect directly via the Shelf Management Server enables users to: enter the Hardware Monitor and view the problematic hardware components, reset and restart the MCU and run diagnostics. Running diagnostics and restarting the MCU can only be done via direct connection to the Shelf Management Server.
